- Remove the printf support leaving the direct printk support configured
with TESTS_USE_PRINTK and all other output goes via a buffered vsniprintf
call to printk.
- Control the test's single init for functions and global data with
TEST_INIT and not CONFIGURE_INIT. They are now separate.
Updates #3170.
It seems that the DWT CYCCNT does not advance when the CPU waits on a
WFI instruction.
That leads to the effect that for example on the atsamv BSP a sleep(1)
needs something in the range of a few minutes (depending on the
configured systick). A debugger might disables some deep sleep modes so
that the problem only appears if the application is executed without a
debugger.
Updates of the line control and baud divisor while transfers are in
progress may lead to unpredictable behaviour on some chips. Perform the
updates only if necessary.
Close#3198.
The thread POSIX API control must be fully initialized in
_POSIX_Threads_Create_extension(), otherwise a pthread_setschedparam()
is broken for all threads not created with pthread_create().
Rename PER_CPU_WATCHDOG_RELATIVE in PER_CPU_WATCHDOG_MONOTONIC to
highlight the corresponding POSIX CLOCK_MONOTONIC.
Rename PER_CPU_WATCHDOG_ABSOLUTE in PER_CPU_WATCHDOG_REALTIME to
highlight the corresponding POSIX CLOCK_REALTIME.

Initial idea has been that check for both, TMS570_SCI_FLR_TX_EMPTY
and TMS570_SCI_FLR_TXRDY is required before console driver parameters
update.
closes#2883.
The th_bintime, th_microtime and th_nanotime members of the timehand all cache the last system time (uptime + boottime). Only the format differs. Do not re-calculate the bintime and simply use the value used to calculate the microtime and nanotime.
Group all the updates under the relevant comment. Remove obsoleted

Add missing pieces of r315280
I moved this branch from github to a private server, and pulled from the
wrong one when committing r315280, so I failed to include two recent commits.
Thankfully, they were only cosmetic and were included in the review.
Specifically:
Add documentation, polish comments, and improve style(9).

Update #3175.
When the RTC is adjusted, reevaluate absolute sleep times based on the RTC
POSIX 2008 says this about clock_settime(2):
If the value of the CLOCK_REALTIME clock is set via clock_settime(),
the new value of the clock shall be used to determine the time
of expiration for absolute time services based upon the
CLOCK_REALTIME clock. This applies to the time at which armed
absolute timers expire. If the absolute time requested at the
invocation of such a time service is before the new value of
the clock, the time service shall expire immediately as if the
clock had reached the requested time normally.
Setting the value of the CLOCK_REALTIME clock via clock_settime()
shall have no effect on threads that are blocked waiting for
a relative time service based upon this clock, including the
nanosleep() function; nor on the expiration of relative timers
based upon this clock. Consequently, these time services shall
expire when the requested relative interval elapses, independently
of the new or old value of the clock.
When the real-time clock is adjusted, such as by clock_settime(3),
wake any threads sleeping until an absolute real-clock time.
Such a sleep is indicated by a non-zero td_rtcgen. The sleep functions
will set that field to zero and return zero to tell the caller
to reevaluate its sleep duration based on the new value of the clock.
At present, this affects the following functions:
pthread_cond_timedwait(3)
pthread_mutex_timedlock(3)
pthread_rwlock_timedrdlock(3)
pthread_rwlock_timedwrlock(3)
sem_timedwait(3)
sem_clockwait_np(3)
I'm working on adding clock_nanosleep(2), which will also be affected.

Update #3175.
Add labels to sysctls related to clocks.
Sysctls like kern.eventtimer.et.*.quality currently embed the name of
the clock device. This is problematic for the Prometheus metrics
exporter for two reasons:
- Some of those clocks have dashes in their names, which Prometheus
doesn't allow to be used in metric names.
- It doesn't allow for extracting the same property of all clocks on the
system from within a single query.
Attach these nodes to have a label, so that the Prometheus metrics
exporter gives these metric a uniform name with the name of the clock
attached as a label.

Implement userspace gettimeofday(2) with HPET timecounter.
Right now, userspace (fast) gettimeofday(2) on x86 only works for
RDTSC. For older machines, like Core2, where RDTSC is not C2/C3
invariant, and which fall to HPET hardware, this means that the call
has both the penalty of the syscall and of the uncached hw behind the
QPI or PCIe connection to the sought bridge. Nothing can me done
against the access latency, but the syscall overhead can be removed.
System already provides mappable /dev/hpetX devices, which gives
straight access to the HPET registers page.
Add yet another algorithm to the x86 'vdso' timehands. Libc is updated
to handle both RDTSC and HPET. For HPET, the index of the hpet device
to mmap is passed from kernel to userspace, index might be changed and
libc invalidates its mapping as needed.
Remove cpu_fill_vdso_timehands() KPI, instead require that
timecounters which can be used from userspace, to provide
tc_fill_vdso_timehands{,32}() methods. Merge i386 and amd64
libc/<arch>/sys/__vdso_gettc.c into one source file in the new
libc/x86/sys location. __vdso_gettc() internal interface is changed
to move timecounter algorithm detection into the MD code.
Measurements show that RDTSC even with the syscall overhead is faster
than userspace HPET access. But still, userspace HPET is three-four
times faster than syscall HPET on several Core2 and SandyBridge
machines.

Update #3175.
Prevent parallel tc_windup() calls, both parallel top-level calls from setclock() and from simultaneous top-level and interrupt. For this, tc_windup() is protected with a tc_setclock_mtx spinlock, in the try mode when called from hardclock interrupt. If spinlock cannot be obtained without spinning from the interrupt context, this means that top-level executes tc_windup() on other core and our try may be avoided.
The boottimebin and boottime variables should be adjusted from
tc_windup(). To be correct, they must be part of the timehands and
read using lockless protocol. Remove the globals and reimplement the
getboottime(9)/getboottimebin(9) KPI using the timehands read
protocol.
