You misunderstood it again. You are expecting a simple query cmd
error.
But what really matters are NoC issues[1] and OCP[2]. And
while/after
UFS
shutting down, either of them may happen.
[1] When a un-clocked register access issue happens, we call it a
NoC
issue,
meaning you are tring to access a register when clocks are disabled.
This
leads to system CRASH.
OK, let it simple, share this kind of crash log becuase of access sysfs
node in the shutdown flow.
[2] OCP is over current protection. While UFS shutting down, you may
have put UFS regulators to LPM. After that, if you are still trying
to
talk to UFS, OCP can happen on VCCQ/VCCQ2. This leads to system
CRASH
too.
the same as above, share the crash log.
If you have hand-on experiences on NoC and/or OCP issues, you won't ask
for the crash log. The tricky parts about critial NoC and OCP issues is
that they don't print much logs (maybe no logs at all) in uart, which is
why they are hard to debug and why I add another flag to help debug.
Take OCP as an example, when OCP happens on VCCQ/VCCQ2, PMIC will do a
hard reset and put the system to crash dump mode (this is a general
design
in our mutual customers, but it may vary platform by platform).
And if you have a crash dump tool to collect the dump, after the dump is
parsed, the best part which you can count on is the last callstacks and
related flags, variables in hba. The callstack is pretty much same with
the one I shared with my debug patch applied during the weekend.
Stanley can correct me if I am wrong.

Easy for you to say. System crash is a big issue to any SoC vendors
I
belive.
indeed, crash is serious issue, share the log.
