[PATCH v1 3/7] platform/mellanox: mlxreg-hotplug: add extra cycle for hotplug work queue

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

 



It adds missed logic for signal acknowledge, by adding an extra run for
work queue in case a signal is received, but no specific signal assertion
is detected. Such case theoretically can happen for example in case
several units are removed or inserted at the same time. In this situation
acknowledge for some signal can be missed at signal top aggreagation
status level. The extra run will allow to handler to acknowledge the
missed signal.

The interrupt handling flow performs the next steps:
(1)
Enter mlxreg_hotplug_work_handler due to signal assertion.
Aggregation status register is changed for example from 0xff to 0xfd
(event signal group related to bit 1).
(2)
Mask aggregation interrupts, read aggregation status register and save it
(0xfd) in aggr_cache, then traverse down to handle signal from groups
related to the changed bit.
(3)
Read and mask group related signal.
Acknowledge and unmask group related signal (acknowledge should clear
aggregation status register from 0xfd back to 0xff).
(4)
Re-schedule work queue for the immediate execution.
(5)
Enter mlxreg_hotplug_work_handler due to re-scheduling.
Aggregation status is changed from previous 0xfd to 0xff.
Go over steps (2) - (5) and in case no new signal assertion
is detected - unmask aggregation interrupts.

The possible race could happen in case new signal from the same group is
asserted after step (3) and prior step (5). In such case aggregation
status will change back from 0xff to 0xfd and the value read from the
aggregation status register will be the same as a value saved in
aggr_cache. As a result the handler will not traverse down and signal
will stay unhandled.
The fix will enforce handler to traverse down in case the signal is
received, but signal assertion is not detected.
