PATCH 1/1 ACPI: implement acpi_os_get_timer() according the spec

ACPI Timer() opcode should return monotonically increasing clock with 100ns granularity. Implement this with the help of ktime_get().

That looks reasobable. Have you tested it?

Very lightly. Basically I added some debug printks() between two successsive calls of Timer() and it seemed like it returned correct time.

It is certainly better than returning t+1 every time Timer() is called :)

I did somewhat better test for this. I added following ASL code:

	...
	Store(Timer, Local1)
	Sleep(10)
	Divide(Subtract(Timer, Local1), 10000,, Local1)
	Sleep(Local1)

	Store(Timer, Local1)
	Sleep(200)
	Divide(Subtract(Timer, Local1), 10000,, Local1)
	Sleep(Local1)

	Store(Timer, Local1)
	Sleep(1300)
	Divide(Subtract(Timer, Local1), 10000,, Local1)
	Sleep(Local1)

The second sleep should be pretty close to the first one.

Without this patch I get:

[   11.488100] ACPI: acpi_os_get_timer() TBD
[   11.492150] ACPI: Sleep(10)

With the patch applied I get:

[   11.912170] ACPI: Sleep(1300)

The above looks much more correct to me.

That demostrates the problem nicely. Can you please add the above info to the patch changelog?

PATCH v2 1/1 ACPI: implement acpi_os_get_timer() according the spec

ACPI Timer() opcode should return monotonically increasing clock with 100ns granularity according the ACPI 5.0 spec.

Testing the current Timer() implementation with following ASL code (and an additional debug print in acpi_os_sleep() to get the sleep times dumped out to dmesg):

	// Test: 10ms
	Store(Timer, Local1)
	Sleep(10)
	Divide(Subtract(Timer, Local1), 10000,, Local1)
	Sleep(Local1)

	// Test: 200ms
	Store(Timer, Local1)
	Sleep(200)
	Divide(Subtract(Timer, Local1), 10000,, Local1)
	Sleep(Local1)

	// Test 1300ms
	Store(Timer, Local1)
	Sleep(1300)
	Divide(Subtract(Timer, Local1), 10000,, Local1)
	Sleep(Local1)

The second sleep value is calculated using Timer(). If the implementation is good enough we should be able to get the second value pretty close to the first.

However, the current Timer() gives pretty bad sleep times:

	[   11.488100] ACPI: acpi_os_get_timer() TBD
	[   11.492150] ACPI: Sleep(10)
	[   11.502993] ACPI: Sleep(0)
	[   11.506315] ACPI: Sleep(200)
	[   11.706237] ACPI: Sleep(0)
	[   11.709550] ACPI: Sleep(1300)
	[   13.008929] ACPI: Sleep(0)

Fix this with the help of ktime_get(). Once the fix is applied and run against the same ASL code we get:

	[   11.486786] ACPI: Sleep(10)
	[   11.499029] ACPI: Sleep(12)
	[   11.512350] ACPI: Sleep(200)
	[   11.712282] ACPI: Sleep(200)
	[   11.912170] ACPI: Sleep(1300)
	[   13.211577] ACPI: Sleep(1300)

That is much more closer to the values we expected.

Difference to the previous version is that now we use do_div() instead so that i386 build won't break. This was found by kbuild test robot.

In addition I tested this on both i386 and x86_64.
