Once this issue occurred, the ECC decode IRQ status cannot be cleared in the IRQ handler function, and threads cannot be scheduled. ECC HW generates decode IRQ each sector, so there will have more than one decode IRQ if read one page of large page NAND. Currently, ECC IRQ handle flow is that we will check whether it is decode IRQ at first by reading the register ECC_DECIRQ_STA. This is a read-clear type register. If this IRQ is decode IRQ, then the ECC IRQ signal will be cleared at the same time. Secondly, we will check whether all sectors are decoded by reading the register ECC_DECDONE. This is because the current IRQ may be not dealed in time, and the next sectors have been decoded before reading the register ECC_DECIRQ_STA. Then, the next sectors's decode IRQs will not be generated. Thirdly, if all sectors are decoded by comparing with ecc->sectors, then we will complete ecc->done, set ecc->sectors as 0, and disable ECC IRQ by programming the register ECC_IRQ_REG(op) as 0. Otherwise, wait for the next ECC IRQ. But, there is a timing issue between step one and two. When we read the reigster ECC_DECIRQ_STA, all sectors are decoded except the last sector, and the ECC IRQ signal is cleared. But the last sector is decoded before reading ECC_DECDONE, so the ECC IRQ signal is enabled again by ECC HW, and it means we will receive one extra ECC IRQ later. In step three, we will find that all sectors were decoded, then disable ECC IRQ and return. When deal with the extra ECC IRQ, the ECC IRQ status cannot be cleared anymore. That is because the register ECC_DECIRQ_STA can only be cleared when the register ECC_IRQ_REG(op) is enabled. But actually we have disabled ECC IRQ in the previous ECC IRQ handle. So, there will keep receiving ECC decode IRQ. Now, we read the register ECC_DECIRQ_STA once again before completing the ecc done event. This ensures that there will be no extra ECC decode IRQ. MT2712 ECC HW is designed to generate only one decode IRQ each page, so there is no this problem on MT2712 platforms.
