Subject: [PATCH 6.18.y] scsi: ufs: core: Re-arm the device command completion before submitting
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 13:26:37 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260915052638.459390-1-alice.chao@mediatek.com> (raw)
From: Alice Chao <alice.chao@mediatek.com>
Commit 20b97acc4caf ("scsi: ufs: core: Fix a race condition related to
device commands") moved the device management command completion into
struct ufs_hba, initialized once by ufshcd_init(), and dropped the
hba->dev_cmd.complete = NULL;
assignments that used to make ufshcd_compl_one_cqe() discard completions
the submitter had already given up on. Nothing replaced them, so the
completion is never reset between two device commands:
Task A (device command submitter) IRQ (tag == hba->reserved_slot)
--------------------------------- ------------------------------
ufshcd_read_desc_param()
ufshcd_query_descriptor_retry()
__ufshcd_query_descriptor()
ufshcd_exec_dev_cmd()
ufshcd_issue_dev_cmd()
ufshcd_send_command()
ufshcd_wait_for_dev_cmd()
wait_for_completion_timeout()
/* times out, done == 0 */
ufshcd_clear_cmd()
/* returns 0, no effect */
return -EAGAIN
ufs_mtk_mcq_intr()
ufshcd_mcq_poll_cqe_lock()
ufshcd_mcq_process_cqe()
ufshcd_compl_one_cqe()
/* lrbp->cmd == NULL */
complete(&hba->dev_cmd.complete)
/* done: 0 -> 1 */
ufshcd_query_attr_retry()
ufshcd_query_attr()
ufshcd_exec_dev_cmd()
ufshcd_issue_dev_cmd()
ufshcd_send_command()
ufshcd_wait_for_dev_cmd()
wait_for_completion_timeout()
/* returns at once, done: 1 -> 0 */
ufshcd_dev_cmd_completion()
/* response UPIU not written yet */
return -EINVAL
Task A then rejects what it reads out of the response UPIU:
ufshcd_dev_cmd_completion: Invalid device management cmd response: 0
ufshcd_dev_cmd_completion: unexpected response in Query RSP: ff
The skew does not self-correct. On a UFS 4.0 controller in MCQ mode it
persisted across more than a thousand consecutive device commands,
failing every descriptor and attribute read until the link was reset.
The controller can still complete the timed-out command because in MCQ
mode ufshcd_clear_cmd() only issues an SQ cleanup (SQRTC.ICU), which
shows the command left the submission queue but not that a CQE is not
already posted. The MCQ path also skips the hba->outstanding_reqs
re-check that the SDB path does, so it returns -EAGAIN with the
completion still armed.
Re-arm the completion in ufshcd_issue_dev_cmd(), immediately before
submitting. All submitters - ufshcd_exec_dev_cmd(),
ufshcd_issue_devman_upiu_cmd() and ufshcd_advanced_rpmb_op() - reach it
holding hba->dev_cmd.lock, so no extra serialization is needed.
This narrows the window rather than closing it: the CQE only carries the
tag and every device command uses hba->reserved_slot, so a late
completion is still indistinguishable from the expected one. It no
longer spans the idle time between two commands.
No mainline commit: commit 08b12cda6c44 ("scsi: ufs: core: Switch to
scsi_get_internal_cmd()") moved this path onto the block layer and
removed struct ufs_dev_cmd::complete and ufshcd_wait_for_dev_cmd(). Each
device command now waits on its own request via blk_execute_rq(), so
mainline has no shared completion to skew. That refactor is not a
reasonable stable backport; this is the minimal alternative.
Affected versions: v6.15 through v6.18, i.e. the kernels that carry the
commit named in the Fixes: tag but not the mainline rewrite above.
Fixes: 20b97acc4caf ("scsi: ufs: core: Fix a race condition related to device commands")
