A -recent kernel change introduces a reasonable possibility that the -GET call doesn't completes, and bisecting led to a commit from -October that changes the timer usage of the mailbox. - -My theory is that there is a race condition in the new code that breaks -the poll timer, but that it normally goes unnoticed because subsequent -mailbox activity wakes it up again. The power-off mailbox calls happen -at a time when other subsystems have been shut down, so if one of them -fails then there is nothing to allow it to recover. - -Revert 6dc15642 as (at least) a workaround. - -See: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/3941 - -Signed-off-by: Phil Elwell <phil@raspberrypi.com> ---- - drivers/mailbox/mailbox.c | 12 +++++------- - 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) - ---- a/drivers/mailbox/mailbox.c -+++ b/drivers/mailbox/mailbox.c -@@ -82,12 +82,9 @@ static void msg_submit(struct mbox_chan - exit: - spin_unlock_irqrestore(&chan->lock, flags); - -- /* kick start the timer immediately to avoid delays */ -- if (!err && (chan->txdone_method & TXDONE_BY_POLL)) { -- /* but only if not already active */ -- if (!hrtimer_active(&chan->mbox->poll_hrt)) -- hrtimer_start(&chan->mbox->poll_hrt, 0, HRTIMER_MODE_REL); -- } -+ if (!err && (chan->txdone_method & TXDONE_BY_POLL)) -+ /* kick start the timer immediately to avoid delays */ -+ hrtimer_start(&chan->mbox->poll_hrt, 0, HRTIMER_MODE_REL); - } - - static void tx_tick(struct mbox_chan *chan, int r) -@@ -125,10 +122,11 @@ static enum hrtimer_restart txdone_hrtim - struct mbox_chan *chan = &mbox->chans[i]; - - if (chan->active_req && chan->cl) { -- resched = true; - txdone = chan->mbox->ops->last_tx_done(chan); - if (txdone) - tx_tick(chan, 0); -+ else -+ resched = true; - } - } - |
