- Expand timekeeping snapshot mechanisms
The various snapshot functions are mostly used for PTP to collect
"atomic" snapshots of various involved clocks.
They lack support for the recently introduced AUX clocks and do not
provide the underlying counter value (e.g. TSC) to user space. Exposing
the counter value snapshot allows for better control and steering.
Convert the hard wired ktime_get_snapshot() to take a clock ID, which
allows the caller to select the clock ID to be captured along with
CLOCK_MONONOTONIC_RAW. Additionally capture the underlying hardware
counter value and the clock source ID of the counter.
Expand the hardware based snapshot capture where devices provide a
mechanism to snapshot the hardware PTP clock and the system counter
(usually via PCI/PTM) to support AUX clocks and also provide the
captured counter value back to the caller and not only the clock
timestamps derived from it.
- Add a new optional read_snapshot() callback to clocksources
That is required to capture atomic snapshots from clocksources which
are derived from TSC with a scaling mechanism (e.g. Hyper-V, KVMclock).
The value pair is handed back in the snapshot structure to the callers,
so they can do the necessary correlations in a more precise way.
This touches usage sites of the affected functions and data structure all
over the tree, but stays fully backwards compatible for the existing user
space exposed interfaces. New PTP IOCTLs will provide access to the
extended functionality in later kernel versions.
