[PATCH v3 11/11] i3c: master: svc: fix possible assignment of the same address to two devices
From: Frank Li
Date: Mon Aug 19 2024 - 12:08:58 EST
svc_i3c_master_do_daa() {
...
for (i = 0; i < dev_nb; i++) {
ret = i3c_master_add_i3c_dev_locked(m, addrs[i]);
if (ret)
goto rpm_out;
}
}
If two devices (A and B) are detected in DAA and address 0xa is assigned to
device A and 0xb to device B, a failure in i3c_master_add_i3c_dev_locked()
for device A (addr: 0xa) could prevent device B (addr: 0xb) from being
registered on the bus. The I3C stack might still consider 0xb a free
address. If a subsequent Hotjoin occurs, 0xb might be assigned to Device A,
causing both devices A and B to use the same address 0xb, violating the I3C
specification.
The return value for i3c_master_add_i3c_dev_locked() should not be checked
because subsequent steps will scan the entire I3C bus, independent of
whether i3c_master_add_i3c_dev_locked() returns success.
If device A registration fails, there is still a chance to register device
B. i3c_master_add_i3c_dev_locked() can reset DAA if a failure occurs while
retrieving device information.
