I think this patch introduces a new race condition, namely the following:
- ufshcd_slave_destroy() tests pm_op_in_progress and reads the value
  zero from that variable.
- ufshcd_suspend() sets hba->pm_op_in_progress to one.
- ufshcd_slave_destroy() calls schedule_work().

How about fixing this race condition by calling
pm_runtime_get_noresume() before checking pm_op_in_progress and by
reallowing resume if no work is scheduled?

If you apply this patch, you will find the change is not in
ufshcd_slave_destroy(), but in ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status().
So the racing you mentioned above does not exist.

Hi Can,

Apparently I got a function name wrong. Can the following race condition
happen:
- ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status() tests pm_op_in_progress and reads the
  value zero from that variable.
- ufshcd_suspend() sets hba->pm_op_in_progress to one.
- ufshcd_suspend() calls flush_work(&hba->eeh_work).
- ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status() calls schedule_work(&hba->eeh_work).

Thanks,

Bart.

Hi Bart,

The sequence you mentioned is not possible.

In normal cases, before ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status() returns,
ufshcd_suspend() would not be called (unless you intentionally call
ufshcd_suspend() to screw it). Because ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status() is
called from __ufshcd_transfer_req_compl(), which is being used by either
UFS IRQ handler or err handler. Meanwhile, in __ufshcd_transfer_req_compl(), scsi_done() is called only after ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status() returns. When we are here, it means UFS driver is still handling requests/tasks, so suspend would not kick start at this moment, either runtime suspend or system suspend.

And this is why below lines work, calling pm_runtime_get_noresume() within
ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status() can prevent runtime suspend from happening
after we leave ufshcd_transfer_rsp_status().

+                if (schedule_work(&hba->eeh_work))
+                    pm_runtime_get_noresume(hba->dev);

Thanks,

Can Guo.
