[PATCH v2 1/2] ath10k: add refcount for ath10k_core_restart

[Wen Gong]

When it has more than one restart_work queued meanwhile, the 2nd
restart_work is very esay to break the 1st restart work and lead
recovery fail.

Add a ref count to allow only one restart work running untill
device successfully recovered.

This patch only effect sdio chips.

Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00029.

This does not only effect SDIO.

Why a semaphore / count? Could the conf_mutex be held earlier, or
perhaps change the state to ATH10K_STATE_RESTARTING first?
ath10k_reconfig_complete is also called in mac.c when channel is changed so

Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] ath10k: add refcount for ath10k_core_restart

[Justin Capella]

Instead of the atomic restart count, can the state be updated to
ATH10K_STATE_RESTARTING while holding
     mutex_unlock(&ar->conf_mutex);

I don't understand the bundles, but I wonder about the case when there
are multiple packets (n_rx_pkts) and if pkt_bundle_len might be the
one to check. Also if there needs to be a check that the len > sizeof
HTC HDR.

the recovery process is begin with ath10k_core_restart, and end with 
ath10k_reconfig_complete.
I already see it has mutex_lock(&ar->conf_mutex) and 
mutex_unlock(&ar->conf_mutex) in ath10k_core_restart,
but it is not enough, for example:
1st recovery has finished ath10k_core_restart, but not arrive 
ath10k_reconfig_complete, then the 2nd recovery
begin to enter ath10k_core_restart, it will destroy the 1st recovery and 
let 1st recovery fail.
After apply this patch, after recovery about 18000+ times, and still can 
connect/scan/ping success.

pkt_bundle is only used when it has many packet in rx side, otherwise it 
is not bundled in rx.

[PATCH v2 2/2] ath10k: start recovery process when payload length exceeds max htc length for sdio

[Wen Gong]

When simulate random transfer fail for sdio write and read, it happened
"payload length exceeds max htc length" and recovery later sometimes.

Test steps:
1. Add config and update kernel:
CONFIG_FAIL_MMC_REQUEST=y
CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION=y
CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION_DEBUG_FS=y

2. Run simulate fail:
cd /sys/kernel/debug/mmc1/fail_mmc_request
echo 10 > probability
echo 10 > times # repeat until hitting issues

3. It happened payload length exceeds max htc length.
[  199.935506] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: payload length 57005 exceeds max htc length: 4088
....
[  264.990191] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: payload length 57005 exceeds max htc length: 4088

4. after some time, such as 60 seconds, it start recovery which triggered
by wmi command timeout for periodic scan.
[  269.229232] ieee80211 phy0: Hardware restart was requested
[  269.734693] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: device successfully recovered

The simulate fail of sdio is not a real sdio transter fail, it only
set an error status in mmc_should_fail_request after the transfer end,
actually the transfer is success, then sdio_io_rw_ext_helper will
return error status and stop transfer the left data. For example,
the really RX len is 286 bytes, then it will split to 2 blocks in
sdio_io_rw_ext_helper, one is 256 bytes, left is 30 bytes, if the
first 256 bytes get an error status by mmc_should_fail_request,then
the left 30 bytes will not read in this RX operation. Then when the
next RX arrive, the left 30 bytes will be considered as the header
of the read, the top 4 bytes of the 30 bytes will be considered as
lookaheads, but actually the 4 bytes is not the lookaheads, so the len
from this lookaheads is not correct, it exceeds max htc length 4088
sometimes. When happened exceeds, the buffer chain is not matched between
firmware and ath10k, then it need to start recovery ASAP. Recently then
recovery will be started by wmi command timeout, but it will be long time
later, for example, it is 60+ seconds later from the periodic scan, if
it does not have periodic scan, it will be longer.

Start recovery when it happened "payload length exceeds max htc length"
will be reasonable.

This patch only effect sdio chips.

Tested with QCA6174 SDIO with firmware WLAN.RMH.4.4.1-00029.

Re: [PATCH v2 2/2] ath10k: start recovery process when payload length exceeds max htc length for sdio

[Justin Capella]

Does the SDIO bus require addresses to be word aligned like the PCI
bus does? I'm thinking of how netdev alloc uses skb_push to ensure
that the payload is aligned.


>> if (ar->state == ATH10K_STATE_ON)

What about the other STATEs: RESTARTED/ING

The value you mentioned 57005, is 0xDEAD is that a special case?
Perhaps a result of fw crash? Maybe a lookahead gone wong? I see its
the WMI PEER ALIVE/DEAD indicator but I'm not sure why it would be
trailer of the other
