Sorry, the previous reply may not have clarified the BUG process. I
re-debugged and confirmed it yesterday. The current BUG execution
sequence is described as follows:

It's the sequence how this works and it works correctly.

Just because it does not work on your machine it does not mean that this
is incorrect and a BUG.

You are trying to fix a symptom and thereby violating guarantees of the
core code.

That is, there is a time between the 1:handle_level_irq() and
3:irq_thread_fn() calls for the 2:disable_irq() call to acquire the lock
and then implement the irq_state_set_disabled() operation. When finally
call irq_thread_fn()->irq_finalize_oneshot(), it cannot enter the
unmask_thread_irq() process.

Correct, because the interrupt has been DISABLED in the mean time.

In this case, the gpio irq_chip irq_mask()/irq_unmask() callback pairs
are not called in pairs, so I think this is a BUG, but not necessarily
fixed from the irq core code layer.

No. It is _NOT_ a BUG. unmask() is not allowed to be invoked when the
interrupt is DISABLED. That's the last time I'm going to tell you that.
Only enable_irq() can undo the effect of disable_irq(), period.

Next, when the gpio controller driver calls the suspend/resume process,
it is as follows:

suspend process:
dwapb_gpio_suspend()
      ctx->int_mask   = dwapb_read(gpio, GPIO_INTMASK);

resume process:
dwapb_gpio_resume()
      dwapb_write(gpio, GPIO_INTMASK, ctx->int_mask);

Did you actually look at the sequence I gave you?

    Suspend:

	  i2c_hid_core_suspend()
	     disable_irq();       <- Marks it disabled and eventually
				     masks it.

	  gpio_irq_suspend()
	     save_registers();    <- Saves masked interrupt

    Resume:

	  gpio_irq_resume()
	     restore_registers(); <- Restores masked interrupt

	  i2c_hid_core_resume()
	     enable_irq();        <- Unmasks interrupt and removes the
				     disabled marker


Have you verified that this order of invocations is what happens on
your machine?

Thanks,

As described earlier, in the current situation, the irq_mask() callback of gpio irq_chip is called in mask_irq(), followed by the disable_irq() in i2c_hid_core_suspend(), unmask_irq() will not be executed.

Then call enable_irq() in i2c_hid_core_resume(). Since gpio irq_chip does not implement the irq_startup() callback, it ends up calling irq_enable().

The irq_enable() function is then implemented as follows:

irq_state_clr_disabled(desc);
if (desc->irq_data.chip->irq_enable) {
	desc->irq_data.chip->irq_enable(&desc->irq_data);
	irq_state_clr_masked(desc);
} else {
	unmask_irq(desc);
}

Because gpio irq_chip implements irq_enable(), unmask_irq() is not executed, and gpio irq_chip's irq_unmask() callback is not called. Instead, irq_state_clr_masked() was called to clear the masked flag.

The irq masked behavior is actually controlled by the irq_mask()/irq_unmask() callback function pairs in gpio irq_chip. When the whole situation occurs, there is one more irq_mask() operation, or one less irq_unmask() operation. This ends the i2c hid resume and the gpio corresponding i2c hid interrupt is also masked.

Please help confirm whether the current situation is a BUG, or suggest other solutions to fix it.
