During system resuming process, the resuming order is from top to down. Namely, the ATA host is resumed before disks connected to it. When an EH is scheduled while ATA host is resumed and disk device is still suspended, the device_lock hold by scsi_rescan_device() is never released so the dpm_resume() of the disk is blocked forerver, therefore the system can never be resumed back. That's because scsi_attach_vpd() is expecting the disk device is in operational state, as it doesn't work on suspended device. To avoid such deadlock, wait until the scsi device is fully resumed, before continuing the rescan process. Signed-off-by: Kai-Heng Feng <kai.heng.feng@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- v5: - Use a different approach. Wait until the disk device is resumed. v4: - No change. v3: - New patch to resolve undefined pm_suspend_target_state. v2: - Schedule rescan task at the end of system resume phase. - Wording. drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c b/drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c index d217be323cc6..a59aada98ac5 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c @@ -1621,6 +1621,9 @@ void scsi_rescan_device(struct device *dev) { struct scsi_device *sdev = to_scsi_device(dev); + if (dev->power.is_suspended) + wait_for_completion(&dev->power.completion); + device_lock(dev); scsi_attach_vpd(sdev); -- 2.34.1
