Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 2/4] dmaengine: dw: serialize error recovery with channel termination
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2026 16:34:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <sashiko-outbox-182952@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261023-submit-dw-dma-synchronize-v1-v3-2-c62bf048f5ce@gmail.com>

> The tasklet samples RAW.ERROR before taking the channel lock. A
> concurrent termination can empty the active list before dwc_handle_error()
> uses that cached error to select a descriptor. The list head is then
> interpreted as a descriptor. Even with an active descriptor, moving
> queue.next unconditionally can put an empty queue's head on the active
> list and pass it to dwc_dostart().
> 
> Recheck the error status under the channel lock and stop the channel
> before selecting its failed descriptor. Only one transaction is issued
> at a time, so take that descriptor directly instead of scanning for
> completions first. The scan can otherwise complete it and start queued
> work before the error handler has identified the failed transaction.
> 
> Detach the failed descriptor under the same lock and use the queued-start
> helper, which leaves an empty queue alone. Clear the software-LLP flag
> before restarting so a failed multiblock transfer does not prevent the
> next transaction from starting. Keep the completion callback outside the
> lock, with the detached descriptor owned by the tasklet.
> 
> Fixes: 3bfb1d20b547 ("dmaengine: Driver for the Synopsys DesignWare DMA controller")
> Fixes: f336e42f73d9 ("dw_dmac: Move single descriptor from dwc->queue to dwc->active_list in dwc_complete_all")
