[PATCH v2] scsi: libsas: Fix SMP IO deadlock during HA resume
Posted by Xingui Yang 1 week ago
When the controller resumes, sas_resume_ha() -> sas_drain_work()
processes the DISCE_RESUME work, which restores the ATA ports through
the libata error handler (ata_sas_port_resume() requests ATA_EH_RESET)
and waits for it in sas_ata_flush_pm_eh(). For an expander-attached
ATA device the hard reset in that recovery is an SMP PHY CONTROL
command sent to the expander:

  ata_eh_recover() -> ata_eh_reset() -> sas_ata_hard_reset()
    -> lldd_I_T_nexus_reset() -> sas_phy_reset()
      -> sas_smp_phy_control() -> smp_execute_task_sg()

For a runtime resume ha->dev is still RPM_RESUMING while the callback
runs, so the pm_runtime_get_sync() in smp_execute_task_sg() blocks
waiting for the resume to complete, but the resume is blocked in
sas_drain_work() waiting for that very SMP IO — a deadlock.

Use pm_runtime_get_noresume()/pm_runtime_put_noidle() when
SAS_HA_RESUMING is set: the usage counter stays elevated for the whole
duration of the IO, so the controller cannot autosuspend underneath an
in-flight SMP IO issued by a thread which the drain does not wait on,
while avoiding the wait for the already ongoing resume. The hardware
is already initialized by the LLDD before sas_resume_ha() runs.
SAS_HA_RESUMING is also set during a system sleep resume, where
ha->dev is RPM_ACTIVE and the noresume variants are harmless.

Outside of the resume window, convert the pm_runtime_get_sync() call
to pm_runtime_resume_and_get() and check the result, so that an SMP IO
is not submitted to a host whose runtime resume failed (the return
value was previously ignored).

Only hisi_sas enables runtime PM among libsas LLDDs, so other drivers
(pm8001, isci, aic94xx, mvsas) are unaffected.

Changes since v1:

- Use pm_runtime_get_noresume()/put_noidle() during HA resume instead
  of skipping the PM reference entirely, so an in-flight SMP IO always
  keeps autosuspend away.
- Convert pm_runtime_get_sync() to pm_runtime_resume_and_get() and
  check the result (pre-existing issue flagged by sashiko).
