[PATCH v4 2/2] scsi: ufs: core: Limit early link recovery in the error handler to runtime PM
From: HOYOUNG SEO
Date: Wed Nov 04 2026 - 23:21:55 EST
ufshcd_err_handler() recovers the link without taking hba->host_sem
whenever hba->pm_op_in_progress is set. That early path was added by
commit f966e02ae521 ("scsi: ufs: core: Fix runtime suspend error
deadlock") because the regular error handling would wait for a runtime
PM operation that cannot complete while the error handler is waiting.
pm_op_in_progress is also set during system suspend, system resume and
shutdown, where the early path is not needed and runs concurrently with
the PM path itself. For example, if a LINERESET is reported and the
hibern8 exit fails in __ufshcd_wl_resume() during system resume, both
ufshcd_err_handler() and __ufshcd_wl_resume() call
ufshcd_link_recovery(), and the host and the device may be reset at the
same time.
Only take the early path while a runtime PM operation is in progress.
For the other PM operations the regular error handling is safe:
- the system PM callbacks hold host_sem from ufshcd_wl_suspend() until
ufshcd_wl_resume() returns, so the error handler waits for them;
- during shutdown, hba->shutting_down makes the error handler stop.
Since pm_op_in_progress does not tell which PM operation is running, add
hba->runtime_pm_in_progress and set it in __ufshcd_wl_suspend() and
__ufshcd_wl_resume().
