From: Junyong Sun <sunjy516@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit bcfbd3523f3c6eea51a74d217a8ebc5463bcb7f4 ] fw_sysfs_wait_timeout may return err with -ENOENT at fw_load_sysfs_fallback and firmware is already in abort status, no need to abort again, so skip it. This issue is caused by concurrent situation like below: when thread 1# wait firmware loading, thread 2# may write -1 to abort loading and wakeup thread 1# before it timeout. so wait_for_completion_killable_timeout of thread 1# would return remaining time which is != 0 with fw_st->status FW_STATUS_ABORTED.And the results would be converted into err -ENOENT in __fw_state_wait_common and transfered to fw_load_sysfs_fallback in thread 1#. The -ENOENT means firmware status is already at ABORTED, so fw_load_sysfs_fallback no need to get mutex to abort again. ----------------------------- thread 1#,wait for loading fw_load_sysfs_fallback ->fw_sysfs_wait_timeout ->__fw_state_wait_common ->wait_for_completion_killable_timeout in __fw_state_wait_common, ... 93 ret = wait_for_completion_killable_timeout(&fw_st->completion, timeout); 94 if (ret != 0 && fw_st->status == FW_STATUS_ABORTED) 95 return -ENOENT; 96 if (!ret) 97 return -ETIMEDOUT; 98 99 return ret < 0 ? ret : 0; ----------------------------- thread 2#, write -1 to abort loading firmware_loading_store ->fw_load_abort ->__fw_load_abort ->fw_state_aborted ->__fw_state_set ->complete_all in __fw_state_set, ... 111 if (status == FW_STATUS_DONE || status == FW_STATUS_ABORTED) 112 complete_all(&fw_st->completion); ------------------------------------------- BTW,the double abort issue would not cause kernel panic or create an issue, but slow down it sometimes.The change is just a minor optimization.
