[PATCH] scsi: ufs: Fix deadlocks between power management and error handler

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

 



The following deadlocks have been observed on multiple test setups:

* ufshcd_wl_suspend() is waiting for blk_execute_rq() to complete while it
  holds host_sem.
* ufshcd_eh_host_reset_handler() invokes ufshcd_err_handler() and the
  latter function tries to obtain host_sem.
This is a deadlock because blk_execute_rq() can't execute SCSI commands
while the host is in the SHOST_RECOVERY state and because the error
handler cannot make progress either.

* ufshcd_wl_runtime_resume() is waiting for blk_execute_rq() to finish
  while it holds host_sem.
* ufshcd_eh_host_reset_handler() invokes ufshcd_err_handler() and the
  latter function calls pm_runtime_resume().
This is a deadlock because of the same reason as the previous scenario.

Fix both deadlocks by not obtaining host_sem from the power management
code paths. Removing the host_sem locking from the power management code
is safe because the ufshcd_err_handler() is already serialized against
SCSI command execution.

The ufshcd_rpm_get_sync() call at the start of
ufshcd_err_handling_prepare() may deadlock since calling scsi_execute()
is required by the UFS runtime resume implementation. Fixing that
deadlock falls outside the scope of this patch.
