This patch provides an attempt to get away from jiffies in msleep() and msleep_interruptible() to hrtimers-backed usleep_range() and usleep_range_interruptible(). Both of the latter now returns an amount of microseconds really spent in sleep; another rationale for this was to convert msleep()-based wait-for-hardware loops to usleep_range(), like this:
unsigned long timeout = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(1000); while (hw_is_not_ready()) { if (time_after(jiffies, timeout)) return -ETIMEDOUT; msleep(1); }
to:
unsigned long timeout = 0; while (hw_is_not_ready()) { if (timeout > USEC_PER_SEC) return -ETIMEDOUT; timeout += usleep_range(500, 1500); }

Adding Thomas since he is maintainer of hrtimers and John since he knows a bit about timekeeping. :)

So I'm still a little foggy on what actual benefit this change brings.
Why do you want to move loops like the above from jiffies based timeouts to hrtimers?
Is there an actual need for sub-jiffy granularity in these sorts of timeouts?
Or is this really just a "getting away from using jiffies" cleanup?

Another silly nit, but is it just me, or does having elapsed as the second argument in-between the expiration and the slack seem awkward?

Calling get_time() again on each hrtimer_wakeup isn't free.
With this we end up when the irq fires, calling hrtimer_interrupt, which reads the time and goes through the timer list running expired timers, which then runs the sleeper's timer which then reads the time again! Additinoally, this extra overhead is done even no one wants the elapsed time.
Personally, given the above, I'm not sure what the benefit of of your implementation over just doing something like the following where necessary:
u64 now = ktime_get(); u64 timeout = ktime_to_ns(now) + NSEC_PER_SEC; while (hw_is_not_ready()) { if (now > timeout) return -ETIMEDOUT; usleep_range(500, 1500); now = ktime_get(); }
If you could rework it so you're not calling gettime any additional times, but still providing the same elapsed sleep time, then it would atleast have the benefit of an improvement over my example here.

Why do you want to move loops like the above from jiffies based timeouts to hrtimers?
I'm trying to see whether there are possible benefits in the sense of power management. More hrtimers with larger expire deltas -> more opportunities to coalesce hrtimer interrupts -> less frequency of hrtimer interrupts -> longer idle/suspend/stanby/etc. periods.
Is there an actual need for sub-jiffy granularity in these sorts of timeouts?
I didn't collect a representative statistics among the large set of different drivers, but I believe the answer is 'no' for the most of them. The main reason is described above.
Or is this really just a "getting away from using jiffies" cleanup?
A bit of this too, definitely. Documentation/timers/highres.txt notices 'complete jiffies removal' as something which may take place sometime; at least, I don't have an ideas why to use jiffies in a new code.

Thanks, I'll think about reworking of this.
