Subject: [PATCH 15/24] qla4xxx: Reduce rom-lock contention during reset recovery.
Date: Mon, 16 Dec 2013 06:49:45 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1387194594-29817-16-git-send-email-vikas.chaudhary@qlogic.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1387194594-29817-1-git-send-email-vikas.chaudhary@qlogic.com>

From: Vikas Chaudhary <vikas.chaudhary@qlogic.com>

Issue:
Driver holds rom-lock for too long during reset recovery.

During adapter reset testing, it was found that the driver
holds the rom-lock for too long, because of which other
drivers fail to acquire the rom-lock, leading to reset
failures.
The primary cause is, in the bootstrap code, while
holding the rom-lock, the driver checks if the peg is
halted, causing a 2 second contention.

Fix:
When a reset recovery starts, the driver deduces the cause, and
sets appropriate flags in watchdog & recover_adapter routines.
This flag should be used to determine if bootstrap is invoked
from probe or reset context, reducing the rom-lock footprint of
the drivers.
