This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: ufs: qcom: Perform read back after writing CGC enable to the 5.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: scsi-ufs-qcom-perform-read-back-after-writing-cgc-en.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 423df859f08e5441bebd3187aa43a2c69fa2aa55 Author: Andrew Halaney <ahalaney@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 29 15:46:47 2024 -0500 scsi: ufs: qcom: Perform read back after writing CGC enable [ Upstream commit d9488511b3ac7eb48a91bc5eded7027525525e03 ] Currently, the CGC enable bit is written and then an mb() is used to ensure that completes before continuing. mb() ensures that the write completes, but completion doesn't mean that it isn't stored in a buffer somewhere. The recommendation for ensuring this bit has taken effect on the device is to perform a read back to force it to make it all the way to the device. This is documented in device-io.rst and a talk by Will Deacon on this can be seen over here: https://youtu.be/i6DayghhA8Q?si=MiyxB5cKJXSaoc01&t=1678 Let's do that to ensure the bit hits the device. Because the mb()'s purpose wasn't to add extra ordering (on top of the ordering guaranteed by writel()/readl()), it can safely be removed.
