Commit a8b9cf62ad ("ftrace: Fix DIRECT_CALLS to use SAVE_REGS by
default") attempted to fix an issue with direct trampolines on x86, see
its description for details. However, it wrongly referenced the
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS config option and the problem is still
present.
Add the missing "CONFIG_" prefix for the logic to work as intended.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix broken direct trampolines being called when another callback is
attached the same function.
ARM 64 does not support FTRACE_WITH_REGS, and when it added direct
trampoline calls from ftrace, it removed the "WITH_REGS" flag from
the ftrace_ops for direct trampolines. This broke x86 as x86 requires
direct trampolines to have WITH_REGS.
This wasn't noticed because direct trampolines work as long as the
function it is attached to is not shared with other callbacks (like
the function tracer). When there are other callbacks, a helper
trampoline is called, to call all the non direct callbacks and when
it returns, the direct trampoline is called.
For x86, the direct trampoline sets a flag in the regs field to tell
the x86 specific code to call the direct trampoline. But this only
works if the ftrace_ops had WITH_REGS set. ARM does things
differently that does not require this. For now, set WITH_REGS if the
arch supports WITH_REGS (which ARM does not), and this makes it work
for both ARM64 and x86.
- Fix wasted memory in the saved_cmdlines logic.
The saved_cmdlines is a cache that maps PIDs to COMMs that tracing
can use. Most trace events only save the PID in the event. The
saved_cmdlines file lists PIDs to COMMs so that the tracing tools can
show an actual name and not just a PID for each event. There's an
array of PIDs that map to a small set of saved COMM strings. The
array is set to PID_MAX_DEFAULT which is usually set to 32768. When a
PID comes in, it will add itself to this array along with the index
into the COMM array (note if the system allows more than
PID_MAX_DEFAULT, this cache is similar to cache lines as an update of
a PID that has the same PID_MAX_DEFAULT bits set will flush out
another task with the same matching bits set).
A while ago, the size of this cache was changed to be dynamic and the
array was moved into a structure and created with kmalloc(). But this
new structure had the size of 131104 bytes, or 0x20020 in hex. As
kmalloc allocates in powers of two, it was actually allocating
0x40000 bytes (262144) leaving 131040 bytes of wasted memory. The
last element of this structure was a pointer to the COMM string array
which defaulted to just saving 128 COMMs.
By changing the last field of this structure to a variable length
string, and just having it round up to fill the allocated memory, the
default size of the saved COMM cache is now 8190. This not only uses
the wasted space, but actually saves space by removing the extra
allocation for the COMM names.
* tag 'trace-v6.8-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
tracing: Fix wasted memory in saved_cmdlines logic
ftrace: Fix DIRECT_CALLS to use SAVE_REGS by default
While looking at improving the saved_cmdlines cache I found a huge amount
of wasted memory that should be used for the cmdlines.
The tracing data saves pids during the trace. At sched switch, if a trace
occurred, it will save the comm of the task that did the trace. This is
saved in a "cache" that maps pids to comms and exposed to user space via
the /sys/kernel/tracing/saved_cmdlines file. Currently it only caches by
default 128 comms.
The structure that uses this creates an array to store the pids using
PID_MAX_DEFAULT (which is usually set to 32768). This causes the structure
to be of the size of 131104 bytes on 64 bit machines.
In hex: 131104 = 0x20020, and since the kernel allocates generic memory in
powers of two, the kernel would allocate 0x40000 or 262144 bytes to store
this structure. That leaves 131040 bytes of wasted space.
Worse, the structure points to an allocated array to store the comm names,
which is 16 bytes times the amount of names to save (currently 128), which
is 2048 bytes. Instead of allocating a separate array, make the structure
end with a variable length string and use the extra space for that.
This is similar to a recommendation that Linus had made about eventfs_inode names:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240130190355.11486-5-torvalds@linux-foundation.org/
Instead of allocating a separate string array to hold the saved comms,
have the structure end with: char saved_cmdlines[]; and round up to the
next power of two over sizeof(struct saved_cmdline_buffers) + num_cmdlines * TASK_COMM_LEN
It will use this extra space for the saved_cmdline portion.
Now, instead of saving only 128 comms by default, by using this wasted
space at the end of the structure it can save over 8000 comms and even
saves space by removing the need for allocating the other array.

The commit 60c8971899 ("ftrace: Make DIRECT_CALLS work WITH_ARGS
and !WITH_REGS") changed DIRECT_CALLS to use SAVE_ARGS when there
are multiple ftrace_ops at the same function, but since the x86 only
support to jump to direct_call from ftrace_regs_caller, when we set
the function tracer on the same target function on x86, ftrace-direct
does not work as below (this actually works on arm64.)
At first, insmod ftrace-direct.ko to put a direct_call on
'wake_up_process()'.
# insmod kernel/samples/ftrace/ftrace-direct.ko
# less trace
...
<idle>-0 [006] ..s1. 564.686958: my_direct_func: waking up rcu_preempt-17

Setup a function filter to the 'wake_up_process' too, and enable it.
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# echo wake_up_process > set_ftrace_filter
# echo function > current_tracer
# less trace
...

<idle>-0 [002] d.h6. 686.691386: wake_up_process <-kick_pool
Then, only function tracer is shown on x86.
But if you enable 'kprobe on ftrace' event (which uses SAVE_REGS flag)
on the same function, it is shown again.
# echo 'p wake_up_process' >> dynamic_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/p_wake_up_process_0/enable

To fix this issue, use SAVE_REGS flag for multiple ftrace_ops flag of
direct_call by default.

This commit marks kfuncs as such inside the .BTF_ids section. The upshot
of these annotations is that we'll be able to automatically generate
kfunc prototypes for downstream users. The process is as follows:
1. In source, use BTF_KFUNCS_START/END macro pair to mark kfuncs
2. During build, pahole injects into BTF a "bpf_kfunc" BTF_DECL_TAG for
each function inside BTF_KFUNCS sets
3. At runtime, vmlinux or module BTF is made available in sysfs
4. At runtime, bpftool (or similar) can look at provided BTF and
generate appropriate prototypes for functions with "bpf_kfunc" tag
To ensure future kfunc are similarly tagged, we now also return error
inside kfunc registration for untagged kfuncs. For vmlinux kfuncs,
we also WARN(), as initcall machinery does not handle errors.

The return type for ring_buffer_poll_wait() is __poll_t. This is behind
the scenes an unsigned where we can set event bits. In case of a
non-allocated CPU, we do return instead -EINVAL (0xffffffea). Lucky us,
this ends up setting few error bits (EPOLLERR | EPOLLHUP | EPOLLNVAL), so
user-space at least is aware something went wrong.
Nonetheless, this is an incorrect code. Replace that -EINVAL with a
proper EPOLLERR to clean that output. As this doesn't change the
behaviour, there's no need to treat this change as a bug fix.

The problem appears to be caused by CPU reordering of writes issued from
__tracing_map_insert().
The check for the presence of an element with a given key in this
function is:
val = READ_ONCE(entry->val);
if (val && keys_match(key, val->key, map->key_size)) ...
The write of a new entry is:
elt = get_free_elt(map);
memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);
entry->val = elt;
The "memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);" and "entry->val = elt;"
stores may become visible in the reversed order on another CPU. This
second CPU might then incorrectly determine that a new key doesn't match
an already present val->key and subsequently insert a new element,
resulting in a duplicate.
Fix the problem by adding a write barrier between
"memcpy(elt->key, key, map->key_size);" and "entry->val = elt;", and for
good measure, also use WRITE_ONCE(entry->val, elt) for publishing the
element. The sequence pairs with the mentioned "READ_ONCE(entry->val);"
and the "val->key" check which has an address dependency.
The barrier is placed on a path executed when adding an element for
a new key. Subsequent updates targeting the same key remain unaffected.
From the user's perspective, the issue was introduced by commit
c193707dde ("tracing: Remove code which merges duplicates"), which
followed commit cbf4100efb ("tracing: Add support to detect and avoid
duplicates"). The previous code operated differently; it inherently
expected potential races which result in duplicates but merged them
later when they occurred.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
- Allow kernel trace instance creation to specify what events are
created
Inside the kernel, a subsystem may create a tracing instance that it
can use to send events to user space. This sub-system may not care
about the thousands of events that exist in eventfs. Allow the
sub-system to specify what sub-systems of events it cares about, and
only those events are exposed to this instance.
- Allow the ring buffer to be broken up into bigger sub-buffers than
just the architecture page size.
A new tracefs file called "buffer_subbuf_size_kb" is created. The
user can now specify a minimum size the sub-buffer may be in
kilobytes. Note, that the implementation currently make the
sub-buffer size a power of 2 pages (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...) but the user
only writes in kilobyte size, and the sub-buffer will be updated to
the next size that it will can accommodate it. If the user writes in
10, it will change the size to be 4 pages on x86 (16K), as that is
the next available size that can hold 10K pages.
- Update the debug output when a corrupt time is detected in the ring
buffer. If the ring buffer detects inconsistent timestamps, there's a
debug config options that will dump the contents of the meta data of
the sub-buffer that is used for debugging. Add some more information
to this dump that helps with debugging.
- Add more timestamp debugging checks (only triggers when the config is
enabled)
- Increase the trace_seq iterator to 2 page sizes.
- Allow strings written into tracefs_marker to be larger. Up to just
under 2 page sizes (based on what trace_seq can hold).
- Increase the trace_maker_raw write to be as big as a sub-buffer can
hold.
- Remove 32 bit time stamp logic, now that the rb_time_cmpxchg() has
been removed.
- More selftests were added.
- Some code clean ups as well.

- Update the Kprobes trace event to show the actual function name in
notrace-symbol warning.
Instead of using the user specified symbol name, use "%ps" printk
format to show the actual symbol at the probe address. Since kprobe
event accepts the offset from symbol which is bigger than the symbol
size, the user specified symbol may not be the actual probed symbol.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter

random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix readers that are blocked on the ring buffer when buffer_percent
is 100%. They are supposed to wake up when the buffer is full, but
because the sub-buffer that the writer is on is never considered
"dirty" in the calculation, dirty pages will never equal nr_pages.
Add +1 to the dirty count in order to count for the sub-buffer that
the writer is on.
- When a reader is blocked on the "snapshot_raw" file, it is to be
woken up when a snapshot is done and be able to read the snapshot
buffer. But because the snapshot swaps the buffers (the main one with
the snapshot one), and the snapshot reader is waiting on the old
snapshot buffer, it was not woken up (because it is now on the main
buffer after the swap). Worse yet, when it reads the buffer after a
snapshot, it's not reading the snapshot buffer, it's reading the live
active main buffer.
Fix this by forcing a wakeup of all readers on the snapshot buffer
when a new snapshot happens, and then update the buffer that the
reader is reading to be back on the snapshot buffer.
- Fix the modification of the direct_function hash. There was a race
when new functions were added to the direct_function hash as when it
moved function entries from the old hash to the new one, a direct
function trace could be hit and not see its entry.
This is fixed by allocating the new hash, copy all the old entries
onto it as well as the new entries, and then use rcu_assign_pointer()
to update the new direct_function hash with it.
This also fixes a memory leak in that code.
- Fix eventfs ownership
* tag 'trace-v6.7-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
ftrace: Fix modification of direct_function hash while in use
tracing: Fix blocked reader of snapshot buffer
ring-buffer: Fix wake ups when buffer_percent is set to 100
eventfs: Fix file and directory uid and gid ownership
Masami Hiramatsu reported a memory leak in register_ftrace_direct() where
if the number of new entries are added is large enough to cause two
allocations in the loop:
for (i = 0; i < size; i++) {
hlist_for_each_entry(entry, &hash->buckets[i], hlist) {
new = ftrace_add_rec_direct(entry->ip, addr, &free_hash);
if (!new)
goto out_remove;
entry->direct = addr;
}
}
Where ftrace_add_rec_direct() has:
if (ftrace_hash_empty(direct_functions) ||
direct_functions->count > 2 * (1 << direct_functions->size_bits)) {
struct ftrace_hash *new_hash;
int size = ftrace_hash_empty(direct_functions) ? 0 :
direct_functions->count + 1;
if (size < 32)
size = 32;
new_hash = dup_hash(direct_functions, size);
if (!new_hash)
return NULL;
*free_hash = direct_functions;
direct_functions = new_hash;
}
The "*free_hash = direct_functions;" can happen twice, losing the previous
allocation of direct_functions.
But this also exposed a more serious bug.
The modification of direct_functions above is not safe. As
direct_functions can be referenced at any time to find what direct caller
it should call, the time between:
new_hash = dup_hash(direct_functions, size);
and
direct_functions = new_hash;
can have a race with another CPU (or even this one if it gets interrupted),
and the entries being moved to the new hash are not referenced.
That's because the "dup_hash()" is really misnamed and is really a
"move_hash()". It moves the entries from the old hash to the new one.
Now even if that was changed, this code is not proper as direct_functions
should not be updated until the end. That is the best way to handle
function reference changes, and is the way other parts of ftrace handles
this.
The following is done:
1. Change add_hash_entry() to return the entry it created and inserted
into the hash, and not just return success or not.
2. Replace ftrace_add_rec_direct() with add_hash_entry(), and remove
the former.
3. Allocate a "new_hash" at the start that is made for holding both the
new hash entries as well as the existing entries in direct_functions.
4. Copy (not move) the direct_function entries over to the new_hash.
5. Copy the entries of the added hash to the new_hash.
6. If everything succeeds, then use rcu_pointer_assign() to update the
direct_functions with the new_hash.
This simplifies the code and fixes both the memory leak as well as the
race condition mentioned above.

If an application blocks on the snapshot or snapshot_raw files, expecting
to be woken up when a snapshot occurs, it will not happen. Or it may
happen with an unexpected result.
That result is that the application will be reading the main buffer
instead of the snapshot buffer. That is because when the snapshot occurs,
the main and snapshot buffers are swapped. But the reader has a descriptor
still pointing to the buffer that it originally connected to.
This is fine for the main buffer readers, as they may be blocked waiting
for a watermark to be hit, and when a snapshot occurs, the data that the
main readers want is now on the snapshot buffer.
But for waiters of the snapshot buffer, they are waiting for an event to
occur that will trigger the snapshot and they can then consume it quickly
to save the snapshot before the next snapshot occurs. But to do this, they
need to read the new snapshot buffer, not the old one that is now
receiving new data.
Also, it does not make sense to have a watermark "buffer_percent" on the
snapshot buffer, as the snapshot buffer is static and does not receive new
data except all at once.

The tracefs file "buffer_percent" is to allow user space to set a
water-mark on how much of the tracing ring buffer needs to be filled in
order to wake up a blocked reader.
0 - is to wait until any data is in the buffer
1 - is to wait for 1% of the sub buffers to be filled
50 - would be half of the sub buffers are filled with data
100 - is not to wake the waiter until the ring buffer is completely full
Unfortunately the test for being full was:
dirty = ring_buffer_nr_dirty_pages(buffer, cpu);
return (dirty * 100) > (full * nr_pages);
Where "full" is the value for "buffer_percent".
There is two issues with the above when full == 100.
1. dirty * 100 > 100 * nr_pages will never be true
That is, the above is basically saying that if the user sets
buffer_percent to 100, more pages need to be dirty than exist in the
ring buffer!
2. The page that the writer is on is never considered dirty, as dirty
pages are only those that are full. When the writer goes to a new
sub-buffer, it clears the contents of that sub-buffer.
That is, even if the check was ">=" it would still not be equal as the
most pages that can be considered "dirty" is nr_pages - 1.
To fix this, add one to dirty and use ">=" in the compare.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix another kerneldoc warning
- Fix eventfs files to inherit the ownership of its parent directory.
The dynamic creation of dentries in eventfs did not take into account
if the tracefs file system was mounted with a gid/uid, and would
still default to the gid/uid of root. This is a regression.
- Fix warning when synthetic event testing is enabled along with
startup event tracing testing is enabled
* tag 'trace-v6.7-rc6-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
tracing / synthetic: Disable events after testing in synth_event_gen_test_init()
eventfs: Have event files and directories default to parent uid and gid
tracing/synthetic: fix kernel-doc warnings
The ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() was creating ring_buffer_per_cpu
cpu_buffers with the new subbuffers with the updated order, and if they
all successfully were created, then they the ring_buffer's per_cpu buffers
would be freed and replaced by them.
The problem is that the freed per_cpu buffers contains state that would be
lost. Running the following commands:
1. # echo 3 > /sys/kernel/tracing/buffer_subbuf_order
2. # echo 0 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_cpumask
3. # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/snapshot
4. # echo ff > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_cpumask
5. # echo test > /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_marker
Would result in:
-bash: echo: write error: Bad file descriptor
That's because the state of the per_cpu buffers of the snapshot buffer is
lost when the order is changed (the order of a freed snapshot buffer goes
to 0 to save memory, and when the snapshot buffer is allocated again, it
goes back to what the main buffer is).
In operation 2, the snapshot buffers were set to "disable" (as all the
ring buffers CPUs were disabled).
In operation 3, the snapshot is allocated and a call to
ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() replaced the per_cpu buffers losing the
"record_disable" count.
When it was enabled again, the atomic_dec(&cpu_buffer->record_disable) was
decrementing a zero, setting it to -1. Writing 1 into the snapshot would
swap the snapshot buffer with the main buffer, so now the main buffer is
"disabled", and nothing can write to the ring buffer anymore.
Instead of creating new per_cpu buffers and losing the state of the old
buffers, basically do what the resize does and just allocate new subbuf
pages into the new_pages link list of the per_cpu buffer and if they all
succeed, then replace the old sub buffers with the new ones. This keeps
the per_cpu buffer descriptor in tact and by doing so, keeps its state.

Fixes: f9b94daa54 ("ring-buffer: Set new size of the ring buffer sub page")
Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (Google) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
The function ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() just updated the sub-buffers
to the new size, but this also changes the size of the buffer in doing so.
As the size is determined by nr_pages * subbuf_size. If the subbuf_size is
increased without decreasing the nr_pages, this causes the total size of
the buffer to increase.
This broke the latency tracers as the snapshot needs to be the same size
as the main buffer. The size of the snapshot buffer is only expanded when
needed, and because the order is still the same, the size becomes out of
sync with the main buffer, as the main buffer increased in size without
the tracing system knowing.

The synth_event_gen_test module can be built in, if someone wants to run
the tests at boot up and not have to load them.
The synth_event_gen_test_init() function creates and enables the synthetic
events and runs its tests.
The synth_event_gen_test_exit() disables the events it created and
destroys the events.
If the module is builtin, the events are never disabled. The issue is, the
events should be disable after the tests are run. This could be an issue
if the rest of the boot up tests are enabled, as they expect the events to
be in a known state before testing. That known state happens to be
disabled.
When CONFIG_SYNTH_EVENT_GEN_TEST=y and CONFIG_EVENT_TRACE_STARTUP_TEST=y
a warning will trigger:
Running tests on trace events:
Testing event create_synth_test:
Enabled event during self test!

This is because the synth_event_gen_test_init() left the synthetic events
that it created enabled. By having it disable them after testing, the
other selftests will run fine.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"While working on the ring buffer, I found one more bug with the
timestamp code, and the fix for this removed the need for the final
64-bit cmpxchg!
The ring buffer events hold a "delta" from the previous event. If it
is determined that the delta can not be calculated, it falls back to
adding an absolute timestamp value. The way to know if the delta can
be used is via two stored timestamps in the per-cpu buffer meta data:
before_stamp and write_stamp
The before_stamp is written by every event before it tries to allocate
its space on the ring buffer. The write_stamp is written after it
allocates its space and knows that nothing came in after it read the
previous before_stamp and write_stamp and the two matched.
A previous fix dd93942570 ("ring-buffer: Do not try to put back
write_stamp") removed putting back the write_stamp to match the
before_stamp so that the next event could use the delta, but races
were found where the two would match, but not be for of the previous
event.
It was determined to allow the event reservation to not have a valid
write_stamp when it is finished, and this fixed a lot of races.
The last use of the 64-bit timestamp cmpxchg depended on the
write_stamp being valid after an interruption. But this is no longer
the case, as if an event is interrupted by a softirq that writes an
event, and that event gets interrupted by a hardirq or NMI and that
writes an event, then the softirq could finish its reservation without
a valid write_stamp.
In the slow path of the event reservation, a delta can still be used
if the write_stamp is valid. Instead of using a cmpxchg against the
write stamp, the before_stamp needs to be read again to validate the
write_stamp. The cmpxchg is not needed.
This updates the slowpath to validate the write_stamp by comparing it
to the before_stamp and removes all rb_time_cmpxchg() as there are no
more users of that function.
The removal of the 32-bit updates of rb_time_t will be done in the
next merge window"
