mwifiex: fix sleep in atomic context bugs caused by dev_coredumpv
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit a52ed48 ]

There are sleep in atomic context bugs when uploading device dump
data in mwifiex. The root cause is that dev_coredumpv could not
be used in atomic contexts, because it calls dev_set_name which
include operations that may sleep. The call tree shows execution
paths that could lead to bugs:

   (Interrupt context)
fw_dump_timer_fn
  mwifiex_upload_device_dump
    dev_coredumpv(..., GFP_KERNEL)
      dev_coredumpm()
        kzalloc(sizeof(*devcd), gfp); //may sleep
        dev_set_name
          kobject_set_name_vargs
            kvasprintf_const(GFP_KERNEL, ...); //may sleep
            kstrdup(s, GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep

The corresponding fail log is shown below:

[  135.389205] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump end

This patch uses delayed work to replace timer and moves the operations
that may sleep into a delayed work in order to mitigate bugs, it was
tested on Marvell 88W8801 chip whose port is usb and the firmware is
usb8801_uapsta.bin. The following is the result after using delayed
work to replace timer.

[  134.936453] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump start
[  135.043344] usb 1-1: == mwifiex dump information to /sys/class/devcoredump end

As we can see, there is no bug now.
