This reverts commit 93b2ec0128.
The call to "schedule_work()" in rtc_initialize_alarm() happens too
early, and can cause oopses at bootup
Neil Brown explains why we do it:
"If you set an alarm in the future, then shutdown and boot again after
that time, then you will end up with a timer_queue node which is in
the past.
When this happens the queue gets stuck. That entry-in-the-past won't
get removed until and interrupt happens and an interrupt won't happen
because the RTC only triggers an interrupt when the alarm is "now".
So you'll find that e.g. "hwclock" will always tell you that
'select' timed out.
So we force the interrupt work to happen at the start just in case."
and has a patch that convert it to do things in-process rather than with
the worker thread, but right now it's too late to play around with this,
so we just revert the patch that caused problems for now.

This reverts commit c0afabd3d5.
It causes failures on Toshiba laptops - instead of disabling the alarm,
it actually seems to enable it on the affected laptops, resulting in
(for example) the laptop powering on automatically five minutes after
shutdown.
There's a patch for it that appears to work for at least some people,
but it's too late to play around with this, so revert for now and try
again in the next merge window.

If the alarm time programming in the rtc is ever in the past, it won't fire,
and any other alarm will be queued after it so they won't fire either.
So any time that the alarm might be in the past, we need to trigger
the irq handler to ensure the old alarm is cleared and the timer queue
is fully in the future.
This can happen:
- when we first initialise the alarm
- when we set the time in the rtc.
so follow both of these by scheduling the timer work function.

Ben reported a lockup related to rtc. The lockup happens due to:
CPU0 CPU1
rtc_irq_set_state() __run_hrtimer()
spin_lock_irqsave(&rtc->irq_task_lock) rtc_handle_legacy_irq();
spin_lock(&rtc->irq_task_lock);
hrtimer_cancel()
while (callback_running);
So the running callback never finishes as it's blocked on
rtc->irq_task_lock.
Use hrtimer_try_to_cancel() instead and drop rtc->irq_task_lock while
waiting for the callback. Fix this for both rtc_irq_set_state() and
rtc_irq_set_freq().

In rtc_irq_set_state, the code checks the correctness of the parameters,
but then goes on to unconditionally arms/disarms the hrtimer. Thus a
random task might arm/disarm rtc timer and surprise the real owner by
either generating events or by stopping them.

When we register an rtc device at boot, we read the alarm value
in hardware and set the rtc device's aie_timer to that value.
The initial method to do this was to simply call rtc_set_alarm()
with the value read from hardware. However, this may cause problems
as rtc_set_alarm may enable interupts, and the RTC alarm might fire,
which can cause invalid pointer dereferencing since the RTC registration
is not complete.
This patch solves the issue by initializing the rtc_device.aie_timer
y hand via rtc_initialize_alarm(). This avoids any calls to the RTC
hardware which might enable interrupts too early.

Mark Brown pointed out a corner case: that RTC alarms should
be allowed to be persistent across reboots if the hardware
supported it.
The rework of the generic layer to virtualize the RTC alarm
virtualized much of the alarm handling, and removed the
code used to read the alarm time from the hardware.
Mark noted if we want the alarm to be persistent across
reboots, we need to re-read the alarm value into the
virtualized generic layer at boot up, so that the generic
layer properly exposes that value.
This patch restores much of the earlier removed
rtc_read_alarm code and wires it in so that we
set the kernel's alarm value to what we find in the
hardware at boot time.
NOTE: Not all hardware supports persistent RTC alarm state across
system reset. rtc-cmos for example will keep the alarm time, but
disables the AIE mode irq. Applications should not expect the RTC
alarm to be valid after a system reset. We will preserve what
we can, to represent the hardware state at boot, but its not
guarenteed.
Further, in the future, with multiplexed RTC alarms, the
soonest alarm to fire may not be the one set via the /dev/rt
ioctls. So an application may set the alarm with RTC_ALM_SET,
but after a reset find that RTC_ALM_READ returns an earlier
time. Again, we preserve what we can, but applications should
not expect the RTC alarm state to persist across a system reset.
Big thanks to Mark for pointing out the issue!
Thanks also to Marcelo for helping think through the solution.

This was introduced in

In reviewing cases where the virtualized interfaces didn't propagate
errors properly, I noticed rtc_read_alarm needed fixing. In doing
so I noticed my RTC rework dropped a memset and that the behavior
of rtc_read_alarm shouldn't be conditionalized on the alarm.enabled
flag (as the alarm may be set, but the irqs may be disabled). So
those were corrected as well.

In cases where RTC hardware does not support alarms, the virtualized
RTC interfaces did not have a way to propagate the error up to userland.
This patch extends rtc_timer_enqueue so it catches errors from the hardware
and returns them upwards to the virtualized interfaces. To simplify error
handling, it also internalizes the management of the timer->enabled bit
into rtc_timer_enqueue and rtc_timer_remove.
Also makes rtc_timer_enqueue and rtc_timer_remove static.

This patch reworks a large portion of the generic RTC code
to in-effect virtualize the rtc interrupt code.
The current RTC interface is very much a raw hardware interface.
Via the proc, /dev/, or sysfs interfaces, applciations can set
the hardware to trigger interrupts in one of three modes:
AIE: Alarm interrupt
UIE: Update interrupt (ie: once per second)
PIE: Periodic interrupt (sub-second irqs)
The problem with this interface is that it limits the RTC hardware
so it can only be used by one application at a time.
The purpose of this patch is to extend the RTC code so that we can
multiplex multiple applications event needs onto a single RTC device.
This is done by utilizing the timerqueue infrastructure to manage
a list of events, which cause the RTC hardware to be programmed
to fire an interrupt for the next event in the list.
In order to preserve the functionality of the exsting proc,/dev/ and
sysfs interfaces, we emulate the different interrupt modes as follows:
AIE: We create a rtc_timer dedicated to AIE mode interrupts. There is
only one per device, so we don't change existing interface semantics.
UIE: Again, a dedicated rtc_timer, set for periodic mode, is used
to emulate UIE interrupts. Again, only one per device.
PIE: Since PIE mode interrupts fire faster then the RTC's clock read
granularity, we emulate PIE mode interrupts using a hrtimer. Again,
one per device.
With this patch, the rtctest.c application in Documentation/rtc.txt
passes fine on x86 hardware. However, there may very well still be
bugs, so greatly I'd appreciate any feedback or testing!
