Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.16-5.4] can: rcar_can: rcar_can_resume(): fix s2ram with PSCI
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2025 09:58:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250916135936.1450850-4-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250916135936.1450850-1-sashal@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit 5c793afa07da6d2d4595f6c73a2a543a471bb055 ]

On R-Car Gen3 using PSCI, s2ram powers down the SoC.  After resume, the
CAN interface no longer works, until it is brought down and up again.

Fix this by calling rcar_can_start() from the PM resume callback, to
fully initialize the controller instead of just restarting it.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Based on my comprehensive investigation using multiple specialized
agents to thoroughly analyze this commit, here is my determination:

## **Backport Status: YES**

This commit is an excellent candidate for stable kernel backporting for
the following reasons:

### Critical Bug Fix
The commit fixes a **complete functional failure** of the CAN controller
after suspend/resume on R-Car Gen3 systems using PSCI. Without this fix,
the CAN interface becomes completely non-operational after resume,
requiring manual intervention (interface down/up) to restore
functionality.

### Meets All Stable Criteria
1. **Fixes a real bug**: CAN controller fails to work after s2ram with
   PSCI - a hardware quirk/behavior issue
2. **Small and contained**: Only ~5-10 lines changed, replacing manual
   register manipulation with a single function call
3. **Obviously correct**: Reuses the well-tested `rcar_can_start()`
   initialization function already used in the open path
4. **Already tested**: Has been in mainline without reported regressions

### Low Risk Profile
- **Minimal code change**: Simply calls existing initialization function
  instead of incomplete manual register manipulation
- **No new code paths**: Reuses proven initialization sequence from
  `rcar_can_open()`
- **Reduces complexity**: Removes duplicate code and consolidates
  initialization logic
- **Clean dependencies**: Only depends on existing `rcar_can_start()`
  function present in all relevant kernels

### High Impact
- **Safety-critical**: In automotive applications, CAN is used for
  critical vehicle functions
- **User-visible**: Complete loss of network functionality is
  immediately apparent
- **No workaround**: While manual interface cycling works, it's not
  viable for production systems

### Technical Correctness
The original resume code only cleared sleep/halt bits, assuming register
contents were preserved. However, PSCI completely powers down the SoC,
losing all register state. The fix properly reinitializes:
- Bit timing configuration
- Operating modes and FIFOs
- Acceptance filters
- Interrupt configuration
- Proper state machine transitions

### Important Note
While my analysis identified potential concerns about clock management
(can_clk not being re-enabled), this appears to be a pre-existing issue
in the suspend/resume implementation rather than a regression introduced
by this fix. The commit correctly addresses the primary initialization
problem.

**Recommendation**: Backport to all stable kernels supporting R-Car Gen3
hardware (likely 4.9+), with priority for automotive/industrial
distributions where CAN reliability is critical.
