Subject: [PATCH v7 02/14] rv: Fix ha_monitor timer and invariant underflow
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2026 03:39:08 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2ab5a814ce453e282c5d90b7285ee6fea8a674b6.1791745088.git.wen.yang@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1791745088.git.wen.yang@linux.dev>
From: Wen Yang <wen.yang@linux.dev>
ha_start_timer_ns() and ha_start_timer_jiffy() compute the remaining
budget as expire - passed. Once the elapsed time passed exceeds the
budget expire (e.g. a state transition after the invariant should have
fired, before the timer callback ran), the unsigned subtraction
underflows to a huge value and the timer is scheduled far into the
future instead of expiring immediately.
ha_check_invariant_ns() computes store >= time_ns - expire_ns, which
underflows when the system uptime is still below expire_ns (a monitor
armed early in boot with a large budget), reporting a false violation.
Clamp the timer remainder to 0 (fire immediately) when passed >= expire,
and replace the invariant check as store + expire_ns >= time_ns so
neither side can underflow.
Fixes: f5587d1b6ec9 ("rv: Add Hybrid Automata monitor type")
Fixes: ab2900ae252b ("rv: Simplify hybrid automata monitors's clock variables")
