Issue:

Do you mean that rpm_active of the link between the consumer and the
supplier is greater than 0 at this point and the consumer is

I mean is rpm_active of the link greater than 1 (because 1 means "no
active references to the supplier")?
Hi Rafael:
No - it is not greater than 1.

I'm trying to understand what's going on in it; will update when I've something.


RPM_ACTIVE, but the supplier suspends successfully nevertheless?

                   link = device_link_add(&sdev->sdev_gendev,
                                       &hba->sdev_ufs_device->sdev_gendev,
                                      DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME|DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE);
I didn't expect this to resolve the issue anyway and it didn't.

Another interesting point here is when I resume any of the above suspended
consumers, it all goes back to normal, which is kind of expected. I tried
resuming the consumer and the supplier is resumed and the supplier is
suspended when all the consumers are suspended.

Any pointers on this issue please?

@Bart/@Alan - Do you've any pointers please?

It's very noticeable that although you seem to have isolated a bug in
the power management subsystem (supplier goes into runtime suspend
even when one of its consumers is still active), you did not CC the
power management maintainer or mailing list.

I have added the appropriate CC's.

Thanks Alan!



Hello
I & Can (thanks CanG) debugged this further:

Looks like this issue can occur if the sd probe is asynchronous.

Essentially, the sd_probe() is done asynchronously and driver_probe_device() invokes pm_runtime_get_suppliers() before invoking sd_probe().

But scsi_probe_and_add_lun() runs in a separate context.
So the scsi_autopm_put_device() invoked from scsi_scan_host() context reduces the link->rpm_active to 1. And sd_probe() invokes scsi_autopm_put_device() and starts a timer. And then driver_probe_device() invoked from __device_attach_async_helper context reduces the link->rpm_active to 1 thus enabling the supplier to suspend before the consumer suspends.

So if:
Context T1:
[1] scsi_probe_and_add_lun()
[2]    |- scsi_autopm_put_device() - reduce the link->rpm_active to 1

Context T2:
__device_attach_async_helper()
        |- driver_probe_device()
            |- sd_probe()
In between [1] and [2] say, driver_probe_device() -> sd_probe() is invoked in a separate context from __device_attach_async_helper().
The driver_probe_device() -> pm_runtime_get_suppliers() but [2] would reduce link->rpm_active to 1.
Then sd_probe() would invoke rpm_resume() and proceed as is.
When sd_probe() invokes scsi_autopm_put_device() it'd start a timer, dev->power.timer_autosuspends = 1.

Now then, pm_runtime_put_suppliers() is invoked from driver_probe_device() and that makes the link->rpm_active = 1.
But by now, the corresponding 'sd dev' (consumer) usage_count = 0, state = RPM_ACTIVE and link->rpm_active = 1.
At this point of time, all other 'sd dev' (consumers) _may_ be suspended or active but would have the link->rpm_active = 1.

Is this with DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE?  In that case, wouldn't active
consumers have link->rpm_active = 2 and also have incremented
the supplier's usage_count?

Yes this is with DL_FLAG_RPM_ACTIVE.

Please let me share a log here:
BEF means - Before, AFT means After.

T196 is the context in which sd_probe() is invoked for this scsi device.

[    7.984188][  T196] sd 0:0:0:4: pm_runtime_put_suppliers: rpm_active: 2

The reference to the link is released after sd_probe() is completed.
At this point, the rpm_active should be 2. And the rpm_active should become 1 when sd 0:0:0:4 actually suspends. But at the end of sd_probe() the suspend is only scheduled. However the supplier is now free to suspend.

In this log, the usage_count of supplier becomes 0 here:
[   11.963885][  T117] sd 0:0:0:7: rpm_put_suppliers: [BEF] Supp (0:0:0:49488) usage_count: 1 rpm_active: 2

However, the consumer sd 0:0:0:4 is still active but has released the reference to the supplier:

If that is the case, then it is an error in PM not UFS.

A second look at the code around rpm_put_suppliers() does look
potentially racy, since there does not appear to be anything
stopping the runtime_status changing between
spin_unlock_irq(&dev->power.lock) and device_links_read_lock().

Rafael, can you comment?

Indeed, if the device is suspending, changing its PM-runtime status to
RPM_SUSPENDED and dropping its power.lock allows a concurrent
rpm_resume() to run and resume the device before the suppliers can be
suspended.

That's incorrect and has been introduced by commit 44cc89f76464 ("PM:
runtime: Update device status before letting suppliers suspend").

It is probably better to revert that commit and address the original
issue in a different way.

Hello,
One approach to address the original issue could be to prevent the scsi
devices from suspending until the probe is completed, perhaps?

I was talking about the original issue that commit 44cc89f76464
attempted to address.

I'm not sure if and how it is related to the issue you have been debugging.

Hi Rafael
Thanks for clarifying that.
Understood.
I was referring to the issue that I've been discussing with Adrian.

For test purposes, you could try reverting 44cc89f76464, making the
other changes to the UFS driver, and see if the device_links issue
goes away.

Hi Adrian

Thanks for the review and comments.

I addressed the comments and tested it. I still see the device_links issue. I've pushed the change that I tested as v12.

# grep -H . /sys/bus/scsi/devices/*/power/runtime_status <
/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:0/power/runtime_status:suspending <
/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:1/power/runtime_status:suspended

/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:49476/power/runtime_status:suspended
/sys/bus/scsi/devices/0:0:0:49488/power/runtime_status:suspended <

I think it couldn't resolve the issue because we're not stopping the scsi devices from suspending after the async probe is scheduled.
