FROMLIST: [PATCH v2] tick/broadcast: Do not set oneshot_mask except was_periodic was true

If a broadcast timer is registered after the system switched to oneshot
mode, a hang_task err could occur like that:

INFO: task kworker/u15:0:7 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
      Tainted: G            E     5.15.41-android13-8-00002-xxx #1
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

When the new broadcast timer was registered after the system switched
to oneshot mode, the broadcast timer was not used as periodic. If the
oneshot mask was set incorrectly, all cores which did not enter cpu_idle
state can't enter cpu_idle normally, causing the hrtimer mechanism to
break. Like:

* CPU 1 stop its tick, next event is in one hour. It calls
  tick_broadcast_enter() and goes to sleep.
* CPU 1 gets an interrupt that enqueues a new timer expiring in the next jiffy
  (note it's not yet actually programmed in the tick device)
* CPU 1 call tick_broadcast_exit().
* CPU 0 registers new broadcast device and sets CPU 1 in tick_broadcast_oneshot_mask
* CPU 0 runs the broadcast callback, sees that the next timer for CPU 1
  is in one hour (because the recently enqueued timer for CPU 1 hasn't been programmed
  yet), so it programs the broadcast to that 1 hour deadline.
* CPU 1 runs tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() which eventually writes and program
  dev->next_event to next jiffy
* CPU 1 runs into cpuidle_enter_state(), and tick_broadcast_enter() is ignored because
  the CPU is already in tick_broadcast_oneshot_mask, so the dev->next_event
  change isn't propagated to broadcast.
* CPU 1 goes to sleep for 1 hour.

This patch fixes the issue by moving the update action about oneshot
mask to a more strict conditions. The tick_broadcast_setup_oneshot would
be called in two typical condition, and they all will work.

1. tick_handle_periodic -> tick_broadcast_setup_oneshot

The origin broadcast was periodic, so it can set the oneshot_mask bits
for those waiting for periodic broadcast and program the broadcast timer
to fire.

2. tick_install_broadcast_device -> tick_broadcast_setup_oneshot

The origin broadcast was oneshot, so the cores which enter the cpu_idle
already used the oneshot_mask bits. It is unnecessary to update the
oneshot_mask.

How do I submit patches to Android Common Kernels

  1. BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.

    • Do not send patches upstream that contain only symbol exports. To be considered for upstream Linux, additions of EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export.
    • When sending patches upstream, the commit message must contain a clear case for why the patch is needed and beneficial to the community. Enabling out-of-tree drivers or functionality is not not a persuasive case.
  2. LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.

Common Kernel patch requirements

  • All patches must conform to the Linux kernel coding standards and pass scripts/checkpatch.pl
  • Patches shall not break gki_defconfig or allmodconfig builds for arm, arm64, x86, x86_64 architectures (see https://source.android.com/setup/build/building-kernels)
  • If the patch is not merged from an upstream branch, the subject must be tagged with the type of patch: UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:, FROMGIT:, FROMLIST:, or ANDROID:.
  • All patches must have a Change-Id: tag (see https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/user-changeid.html)
  • If an Android bug has been assigned, there must be a Bug: tag.
  • All patches must have a Signed-off-by: tag by the author and the submitter

Additional requirements are listed below based on patch type

Requirements for backports from mainline Linux: UPSTREAM:, BACKPORT:

  • If the patch is a cherry-pick from Linux mainline with no changes at all
    • tag the patch subject with UPSTREAM:.
    • add upstream commit information with a (cherry picked from commit ...) line
    • Example:
      • if the upstream commit message is
        important patch from upstream

        This is the detailed description of the important patch

        Signed-off-by: Fred Jones <fred.jones@foo.org>
  • then Joe Smith would upload the patch for the common kernel as
        UPSTREAM: important patch from upstream

        This is the detailed description of the important patch

  • If the patch requires any changes from the upstream version, tag the patch with BACKPORT: instead of UPSTREAM:.
    • use the same tags as UPSTREAM:
    • add comments about the changes under the (cherry picked from commit ...) line
    • Example:
        BACKPORT: important patch from upstream
