From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org>
ktime_get_snapshot() provides a snapshot of the underlying clocksource
counter value and the corresponding CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, CLOCK_REALTIME and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME timestamps.
There is no usage of CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_BOOTTIME at the same time and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME support was just added for the ARM64 KVM tracing mechanism,
which needs CLOCK_BOOTTIME and the underlying clocksource counter value.
ktime_get_snapshot() is also not suitable for usage with CLOCK_AUX, but
that's a prerequisite to support PTP hardware timestamping for CLOCK_AUX
steering.
As a first step, rename ktime_get_snapshot() to ktime_get_snapshot_id(),
which now takes a clockid argument to select the clock which needs to be
captured. The result is stored in system_time_snapshot::systime, which will
replace the system_time_snapshot::real/boot members once all usage sites
have been converted.
ktime_get_snapshot() is a simple wrapper which hands in CLOCK_REALTIME as
clockid argument for the conversion period. That means CLOCK_REALTIME is
now captured twice, but that redunancy is only temporary.
As all usage sites of struct system_time_snapshot has to be updated anyway,
rename the 'raw' member to 'monoraw' for clarity.
No functional change vs. current users of ktime_get_snapshot()

system_time_snapshot::systime provides the same information as
system_time_snapshot::real when the snapshot was taken with
ktime_get_snapshot_id(CLOCK_REALTIME).
Convert the history interpolation over to use 'systime' and 'monoraw' as
'real/raw' are going away once all users are converted.
As a side effect this is the first step to support CLOCK_AUX with
get_device_crosstime_stamp() and the history interpolation.

There is no reason to use the more complex ktime_get_snapshot() for
retrieving CLOCK_REALTIME.
Just use ktime_get_real_ts64(), which avoids the extra timespec64
conversion as a bonus.
No functional change intended.

ktime_get_snapshot() resolves to ktime_get_snapshot_id(CLOCK_REALTIME).
Make it obvious in the code and convert the readout to use the
snapshot::systime and monoraw fields instead of snapshot::real and raw,
which aregoing away.
Similar to the PPS generators, avoid the more expensive snapshot when
CONFIG_NTP_PPS is disabled.

ktime_get_snapshot() is replaced by ktime_get_snapshot_id() which allows to
request a particular CLOCK ID to be captured along with the clocksource
counter.
Convert vmclock over and use the new system_time_snapshot::systime field,
which holds the system timestamp selected by the CLOCK ID argument.
No functional change intended.

An upcoming extension to the PTP IOCTL requires to return the system counter
value and the clocksource ID to user space. get_device_system_crosststamp() has
this information already.
Extend struct system_device_crosststamp with a system_counterval_t member
and fill in the data.

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org>
The normal capture for system/device cross timestamps is CLOCK_REALTIME,
but that's meaningless for AUX clocks.
Add a clock_id field to struct system_device_crosststamp and initialize it
with CLOCK_REALTIME at the two places which prepare for cross
timestamps.
After the related code has been cleaned up, the core code will honor the
clock_id field when calculating the system time from the system counter
snapshot.
No functional change.

iwlwifi only supports CLOCK_REALTIME timestamps and provides an incomplete
result without system counter values etc.
It also zeros struct system_device_crosststamp, which is already zeroed in
the core and initialized with the clock ID.
Remove the zeroing and reject any request for a clock ID other than REALTIME.

The PTP core indicates in system_device_crosststamp::clock_id the clock ID
for which then system time stamp should be taken. That allows to utilize
hardware timestamps with e.g. AUX clocks.
Save the provided clock ID and use it in ice_capture_crosststamp() for
taking the history snapshot.

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org>
PTP device system crosstime stamps support only CLOCK_REALTIME, which is
meaningless for AUX clocks. The PTP core hands in the clock ID already, so
prepare the core code to honor it.
- Add a new sys_systime field to struct system_device_crosststamp which
aliases the sys_realtime field. Once all users are converted
sys_realtime can be removed.
- Prepare get_device_system_crosststamp() and the related code for it by
switching to sys_systime and providing the initial changes to utilize
different time keepers.
No functional change intended.

To prepare for a new PTP IOCTL, which exposes the raw counter value along
with the requested system time snapshot, switch the pre/post time stamp
sampling over to use ktime_get_snapshot_id() and fix up all usage sites.
No functional change intended.
The ptp_vmclock conversion was simplified by David Woodhouse.

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>
Add a read_snapshot() callback to struct clocksource which returns the
derived clocksource value while also providing the underlying hardware
counter reading and the related clocksource ID.
This allows ktime_get_snapshot_id() to populate new hw_cycles and hw_csid
fields in struct system_time_snapshot.
For clocksources that are derived from an underlying counter (e.g., Hyper-V
TSC page scales TSC to 10MHz, kvmclock scales TSC to 1GHz), this provides
atomic access to both the derived value needed for timekeeping
calculations, and the raw hardware counter needed by consumers like KVM's
master clock and the vmclock PTP driver.
