Alan, i want to discuss your suggestion again in b42e8090ba93 ("USB:
UDC:
Implement udc_async_callbacks in net2280")
+ if (dev->async_callbacks) { ----> if CPU1 saw
this
is true
+ spin_unlock(&dev->lock); ---> CPU2 get
lock
after this unlock,
it will set async_callbacks to false, then follow call also crash,
right ?
+ tmp = dev->driver->setup(&dev->gadget,
&u.r);
+ spin_lock(&dev->lock);
+ }
No, this is okay. The reason is because usb_gadget_remove_driver (CPU2
in your example) does this:
usb_gadget_disable_async_callbacks(udc);
if (udc->gadget->irq)
synchronize_irq(udc->gadget->irq);
udc->driver->unbind(udc->gadget);
usb_gadget_udc_stop(udc);
The synchronize_irq call will make CPU2 wait until CPU1 has finished
handling the interrupt for the setup packet. The system won't crash,
because dev->driver->setup will be called before unbind and udc_stop
instead of after.
still several question,
1. how about suspend calll dev->driver->suspend ?
2. will 04145a03db9d ("USB: UDC: Implement udc_async_callbacks in
dummy-hcd") backport to LTS branch ?
3. how about coding style ? so following code
if (foo->gadget_driver && foo->gadget_driver->resume)
change to
if (foo->asnyc_callbacks && foo->gadget_driver->resume)
