[PATCH 01/14] mwifiex: pcie: properly synchronize, disable interrupts in driver callbacks

From: Brian Norris
Date: Wed May 24 2017 - 20:14:23 EST


It seems that the implicit assumption of the mwifiex
{enable,disable}_int() callbacks is that after ->disable_int(), all
interrupt handling should be complete (synchronized) and not fire again
until after ->enable_int(). Also, interrupts should not be serviced
until after the first ->enable_int().

However, the PCIe driver does none of this. First, the existing
interrupt mask programming appears to only have an effect for legacy
interrupts. It doesn't actually prevent MSI/MSI-X interrupts. Second,
even when it might mask interrupts, we're doing nothing to ensure that
pending IRQs have finished processing; they could be already in-flight
when a CPU masks them.

Another quirk of this driver's design is the use of a racy
"surprise_removed" check in mwifiex_pcie_interrupt(). This appears to
act like a racy poor-man's version of masking our interrupts -- it
allows us to short-circuit the ISR if it fires when we're not prepared
to handle more work.

We can resolve this all by:
(a) disabling our IRQs after requesting them
(b) call {enable,disable}_irq() in the {enable,disable}_int() callbacks
(c) remove the racy '->surprise_removed' hack from
mwifiex_pcie_interrupt()
(d) document the effect (or lack thereof) of PCIE_HOST_INT_MASK, to
clarify and possibly prevent future misuse

Along the way, I decided to use underscores to prefix the driver-private
forms of "disabling interrupts" (instead of the awkward "_noerr" suffix
used already), partly to discourage their use.
