Currently, there is no mechanism to keep time sync between guest and host
in arm/arm64 virtualization environment. Time in guest will drift compared
with host after boot up as they may both use third party time sources
to correct their time respectively. The time deviation will be in order
of milliseconds. But in some scenarios,like in cloud environment, we ask
for higher time precision.

kvm ptp clock, which chooses the host clock source as a reference
clock to sync time between guest and host, has been adopted by x86
which takes the time sync order from milliseconds to nanoseconds.

This patch enables kvm ptp clock for arm/arm64 and improves clock sync precision
significantly.

Test result comparisons between with kvm ptp clock and without it in arm/arm64
are as follows. This test derived from the result of command 'chronyc
sources'. we should take more care of the last sample column which shows
the offset between the local clock and the source at the last measurement.

no kvm ptp in guest:

The dns1.synet.edu.cn is the network reference clock for guest and
120.25.115.20 is the network reference clock for host. we can't get the
clock error between guest and host directly, but a roughly estimated value
will be in order of hundreds of us to ms.

with kvm ptp in guest:
chrony has been disabled in host to remove the disturb by network clock.

The PHC0 is the ptp clock which choose the host clock as its source
clock. So we can see that the clock difference between host and guest
is in order of ns.

kvm_arm_hyp_service_available() returns boolean. Maybe write as ?

	bool ret;

	ret = kvm_arm_hyp_service_available();
	if (!ret)

Fixed in 300bb1fe7671, as previously reported by Dan Carpenter in [1].

Why does this not depend on KVM_GUEST on ARM?
I.e. shouldn't the dependency be:

    KVM_GUEST && (X86 || (HAVE_ARM_SMCCC_DISCOVERY && ARM_ARCH_TIMER))

?

arm/arm64 do not select KVM_GUEST. Any kernel can be used for a guest,
and KVM/arm64 doesn't know about this configuration symbol.

OK.

Does PTP_1588_CLOCK_KVM need to default to yes?
Perhaps only on X86, to maintain the status quo?

I think I don't really understand the problem you are trying to
solve. Is it that 'make oldconfig' now asks you about this new driver?
Why is that an issue?

My first "problem" was that it asked about this new driver on
arm/arm64, while I assumed there were some missing dependencies
(configuring a kernel should not ask useless questions).  That turned
out to be a wrong assumption, so there is no such problem here.

The second problem is "default y": code that is not critical should
not be enabled by default.  Hence my last question.

Thanks!

I think consistency between architectures is important. Certainly,
distributions depend on that, and we otherwise end-up with distro
kernels missing functionalities.

The notion of "critical" is also pretty relative. defconfig contains a
gazillion of things that are not critical to most people, for example,
and yet misses a bunch of things that are needed to boot on some of my
systems.

That's just to say that I find it difficult to make that choice from
the PoV of a kernel hacker. I'm personally more inclined to leave
things enabled and let people *disable* things if they want to reduce
the footprint of their kernel.

Thanks,

	M.

I'm not talking about defconfig, but about "default y" in defconfig.

Perhaps those should be added, so those systems can be tested using
defconfig?  At least for arm64, I think that's aligned with the
arm64 defconfig policy.

The standard question to respond to w.r.t. "default y" is: "Why is
your feature so special that it needs to be enabled by default?",
which implies "default y" is the exception, not the rule.
