Subject: [PATCH net] bnx2x: guard stats_pending with stats_lock in all cases
As 9bcb8018cf ("bnx2x: Fix the race on bp->stats_pending") noted, we
can have a race on bp->stats_pending between the timer and a
STATS_EVENT_LINK_UP event handler.
But it seems we can also have the following two races on
bp->stats_pending between the timer and a STATS_EVENT_STOP handler:
Scenario A:
-----------
thread 1: bnx2x_timer() thread in bnx2x_storm_stats_post():
/* send FW stats ramrod */
rc = bnx2x_sp_post(bp, RAMROD_CMD_ID_COMMON_STAT_QUERY, 0,
U64_HI(bp->fw_stats_req_mapping),
U64_LO(bp->fw_stats_req_mapping),
NONE_CONNECTION_TYPE);
if (rc == 0)
thread 2: ethtool thread:
bnx2x_stats_handle(bp, STATS_EVENT_STOP)
-> bnx2x_stats_stop()
-> bnx2x_storm_stats_update()
bp->stats_pending = 0;
thread 1: bnx2x_timer() thread in bnx2x_storm_stats_post():
bp->stats_pending = 1;
If the action interleaves in this way we end up with a
bp->stats_pending value of 1 when there are no stats pending.
Scenario B:
-----------
thread 1: bnx2x_timer() thread in bnx2x_stats_update():
if (bnx2x_storm_stats_update(bp)) {
if (bp->stats_pending == 3) { // false
reg1 = bp->stats_pending // reg1=1
thread 2: ethtool thread:
bnx2x_stats_handle(bp, STATS_EVENT_STOP)
-> bnx2x_stats_stop()
-> bnx2x_storm_stats_update()
bp->stats_pending = 0;
thread 1: bnx2x_timer() thread in bnx2x_stats_update():
reg1++ // reg1=2
bp->stats_pending = reg1; // stats_pending=2
return;
If the action interleaves in this way we end up with a non-zero
bp->stats_pending value when there are no stats pending.
-----------
These are suspected as possible contributors to occasional
bnx2x_panic() dumps we see of the form:
storm stats were not updated for 3 times
When these panic messages happen we see the NIC hang.
The proposed fix is for all, not just some, of the reads and writes to
stats_pending to be guarded by stats_lock. So now all accesses to
stats_pending and stats_couner are guarded by stats_lock.
