The elephant in the room here is the call to panic(), this deserves more attention in the commit messages. > > Change-Id: Id6e55fb038b70f54ff5854d2adff72b74b6a9570 Please remember to remove your Gerrit Change-Id when posting to the list. > Signed-off-by: Gokul krishna Krishnakumar <quic_gokukris@xxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > drivers/remoteproc/qcom_q6v5.c | 31 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > drivers/remoteproc/qcom_q6v5.h | 2 ++ > 2 files changed, 33 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/remoteproc/qcom_q6v5.c b/drivers/remoteproc/qcom_q6v5.c > index 497acfb..89f5384 100644 > --- a/drivers/remoteproc/qcom_q6v5.c > +++ b/drivers/remoteproc/qcom_q6v5.c > @@ -15,6 +15,7 @@ > #include <linux/soc/qcom/smem.h> > #include <linux/soc/qcom/smem_state.h> > #include <linux/remoteproc.h> > +#include <linux/delay.h> > #include "qcom_common.h" > #include "qcom_q6v5.h" > > @@ -94,6 +95,29 @@ int qcom_q6v5_unprepare(struct qcom_q6v5 *q6v5) > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(qcom_q6v5_unprepare); > > +static void qcom_q6v5_crash_handler_work(struct work_struct *work) > +{ > + struct qcom_q6v5 *q6v5 = container_of(work, struct qcom_q6v5, crash_handler); > + struct rproc *rproc = q6v5->rproc; > + struct rproc_subdev *subdev; > + > + mutex_lock(&rproc->lock); > + > + list_for_each_entry_reverse(subdev, &rproc->subdevs, node) { > + if (subdev->stop) > + subdev->stop(subdev, true); > + } > + > + mutex_unlock(&rproc->lock); > + > + /* > + * Temporary workaround until ramdump userspace application calls > + * sync() and fclose() on attempting the dump. > + */ I'm not able to see how this would happen, you only schedule_work() if rproc->recovery_disabled and the coredump generation will only happen if !rproc->recovery_disabled. Also, the reason I can see for invoking panic() here would be to gather a full system coredump to do post mortem analysis of all systems involved. So why would you capture a coredump as well? (This needs to be documented clearly...) > + msleep(100); > + panic("Panicking, remoteproc %s crashed\n", q6v5->rproc->name); As you might know, calling panic() is frowned upon. But I can see the benefit of being able to do full system post mortem analysis. I do however think that your patch indicates a shortcoming (to you) in the remoteproc_core's recovery logic. So please fix that shortcoming, rather than circumventing it in your driver. I.e. make it possible to get rproc_crash_handler_work() behave like you want it to, with a good motivation to why you want that.
