[PATCH 0/5] crypto: qat - fix concurrency related issues

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This set fixes issues related to using unprotected QAT device state    
machine functions that might cause concurrency issues at the time of state  
transition.

The first patch fixes the QAT 4XXX device's unexpected behaviour that
might occur if the user changes the device state or configuration via
sysfs while the driver performing device bring-up. The sequence is changed
in the probe function now the sysfs attribute is created after the device
initialization.

The second patch fixes the concurrency issue in the sysfs `state` 
attribute if multiple processes change the state of the qat device in 
parallel. The change introduces the protected wrapper function 
adf_dev_up() and adf_dev_down() that protects the transition of the device
state. These are used in adf_sysfs.c instead of low-level state machine 
functions.

The third patch replaces the use of unsafe low-level device state machine 
function with its protected wrapper functions.

The forth patch refactor device restart logic by moving it into 
adf_dev_restart() which uses safe adf_dev_up() and adf_dev_down().

The fifth patch define state machine functions static as they are unsafe
to use for state transition now performed by safe adf_dev_up() and 
adf_dev_down().
