Subject: [PATCH] ath10k: Fix soft lockup during firmware crash/hw-restart
|
||
|
|
||
|
During firmware crash (or) user requested manual restart
|
||
|
the system gets into a soft lock up state because of the
|
||
|
below root cause.
|
||
|
|
||
|
During user requested hardware restart / firmware crash
|
||
|
the system goes into a soft lockup state as 'napi_synchronize'
|
||
|
is called after 'napi_disable' (which sets 'NAPI_STATE_SCHED'
|
||
|
bit) and it sleeps into infinite loop as it waits for
|
||
|
'NAPI_STATE_SCHED' to be cleared. This condition is hit because
|
||
|
'ath10k_hif_stop' is called twice as below (resulting in calling
|
||
|
'napi_synchronize' after 'napi_disable')
|
||
|
|
||
|
'ath10k_core_restart' -> 'ath10k_hif_stop' (ATH10K_STATE_ON) ->
|
||
|
-> 'ieee80211_restart_hw' -> 'ath10k_start' -> 'ath10k_halt' ->
|
||
|
'ath10k_core_stop' -> 'ath10k_hif_stop' (ATH10K_STATE_RESTARTING)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Fix this by calling 'ath10k_halt' in ath10k_core_restart itself
|
||
|
as it makes more sense before informing mac80211 to restart h/w
|
||
|
Also remove 'ath10k_halt' in ath10k_start for the state of 'restarting'
|
||
|
|
||
|
