commit 4d92e7c5cc upstream.
When mhi_async_power_up() enables IRQs, it is possible that we could
receive a SYSERR notification from the device if the firmware has crashed
for some reason. Then the SYSERR notification queues a work item that
cannot execute until the pm_mutex is released by mhi_async_power_up().
So the SYSERR work item will be pending. If mhi_async_power_up() detects
the SYSERR, it will handle it. If the device is in PBL, then the PBL state
transition event will be queued, resulting in a work item after the
pending SYSERR work item. Once mhi_async_power_up() releases the pm_mutex,
the SYSERR work item can run. It will blindly attempt to reset the MHI
state machine, which is the recovery action for SYSERR. PBL/SBL are not
interrupt driven and will ignore the MHI Reset unless SYSERR is actively
advertised. This will cause the SYSERR work item to timeout waiting for
reset to be cleared, and will leave the host state in SYSERR processing.
The PBL transition work item will then run, and immediately fail because
SYSERR processing is not a valid state for PBL transition.
This leaves the device uninitialized.
This issue has a fairly unique signature in the kernel log:
mhi mhi3: Requested to power ON
Qualcomm Cloud AI 100 0000:36:00.0: Fatal error received from
device. Attempting to recover
mhi mhi3: Power on setup success
mhi mhi3: Device failed to exit MHI Reset state
mhi mhi3: Device MHI is not in valid state
We cannot remove the SYSERR handling from mhi_async_power_up() because the
device may be in the SYSERR state, but we missed the notification as the
irq was fired before irqs were enabled. We also can't queue the SYSERR work
item from mhi_async_power_up() if SYSERR is detected because that may
result in a duplicate work item, and cause the same issue since the
duplicate item will blindly issue MHI reset even if SYSERR is no longer
active.
Instead, add a check in the SYSERR work item to make sure that MHI reset is
only issued if the device is in SYSERR state for PBL or SBL EEs.
