Disable mt76u_tx_tasklet at the end of mt76u_stop_queues in order to properly deallocate all pending skbs during suspend/resume phase

On suspend/resume tx skb's are processed after tasklet_enable() in resume callback. There is issue with device removal though (during suspend or otherwise).

If tasklet is scheduled and we disable it and never enable, we end up with infinite loop in tasklet_action_common(). This patch make the problem less reproducible since tasklet_disable() is moved after usb_kill_urb() -> tasklet_schedule(), but it is still possible.

I comprehansive have fix for that, but giving it more testing. Please drop this patch.

Hi Stanislaw,

I guess the right moment to deallocate the skbs is during suspend since resume can happen in very far future

I can see the point here. Maybe we can just run tasklet_kill instead of tasklet_disable here (at least for tx one)

I think it is enough even for rx side since usb_kill_urb() will wait the end of mt76u_complete_rx() and tasklet_kill() will wait for the completion of mt76u_rx_tasklet(). We will need to remove tasklet_enable in resume routines.

Yes, it's better to free on suspend, but in practice does not really matter since system is disabled till resume.

I think you have right as tasklet_kill() will wait for scheduled tasklet . Originally in my patch (see below) I used wait_event as I thought tasklet_kill() may prevent scheduled tasklet to be executed (hence cause leak) but that seems to be not true.

No, because rx urb's are resubmitted on mt76u_rx_tasklet(). I use usb_poison_urb() to prevent that in my patch.

    mt76usb: fix tx/rx stop
    
    Disabling tasklets on stopping rx/tx is wrong. If blocked tasklet
    is scheduled and we remove device we get 100% cpu usage:

Fortunate thing is that this not happen frequently, as scheduling tasklet on blocked state is very exceptional, though might happen.

Due to different RX/TX tasklet processing fix is different for those. For TX just wait until queues are empty. For RX assure rx_tasklet do fail to resubmit buffers by poisoning urb's and kill the tasklet.

If tasklet is scheduled and we disable it and never enable, we end up with infinite loop in tasklet_action_common(). This patch make the problem less reproducible since tasklet_disable() is moved after usb_kill_urb() -> tasklet_schedule(), but it is still possible.

I can see the point here. Maybe we can just run tasklet_kill instead of tasklet_disable here (at least for tx one)

I think you have right as tasklet_kill() will wait for scheduled tasklet . Originally in my patch (see below) I used wait_event as I thought tasklet_kill() may prevent scheduled tasklet to be executed (hence cause leak) but that seems to be not true.

I agree with rx side (good catch!!), but on tx one I guess usb_kill_urb() is already waiting for tx pending so we just need to use tasklet_kill at the end of mt76u_stop_queues, in this way we will free pending skbs during suspend

I think it is enough even for rx side since usb_kill_urb() will wait the end of mt76u_complete_rx() and tasklet_kill() will wait for the completion of mt76u_rx_tasklet(). We will need to remove tasklet_enable in resume routines.

No, because rx urb's are resubmitted on mt76u_rx_tasklet(). I use usb_poison_urb() to prevent that in my patch.

    mt76usb: fix tx/rx stop
    
    Disabling tasklets on stopping rx/tx is wrong. If blocked tasklet
    is scheduled and we remove device we get 100% cpu usage:

    Fortunate thing is that this not happen frequently, as scheduling
    tasklet on blocked state is very exceptional, though might happen.
    
    Due to different RX/TX tasklet processing fix is different for those.
    For TX just wait until queues are empty. For RX assure rx_tasklet
    do fail to resubmit buffers by poisoning urb's and kill the tasklet.

On suspend/resume tx skb's are processed after tasklet_enable() in resume callback. There is issue with device removal though (during suspend or otherwise).

Hi Stanislaw,

I guess the right moment to deallocate the skbs is during suspend since resume can happen in very far future

Yes, it's better to free on suspend, but in practice does not really matter since system is disabled till resume.

Disable mt76u_tx_tasklet at the end of mt76u_stop_queues in order to properly deallocate all pending skbs during suspend/resume phase

Quoted 8 lines
Quoted 8 lines
Quoted 3 lines

On suspend/resume tx skb's are processed after tasklet_enable() in resume callback. There is issue with device removal though (during suspend or otherwise).

Hi Stanislaw,

I guess the right moment to deallocate the skbs is during suspend since resume can happen in very far future

Yes, it's better to free on suspend, but in practice does not really matter since system is disabled till resume.

If tasklet is scheduled and we disable it and never enable, we end up with infinite loop in tasklet_action_common(). This patch make the problem less reproducible since tasklet_disable() is moved after usb_kill_urb() -> tasklet_schedule(), but it is still possible.

I can see the point here. Maybe we can just run tasklet_kill instead of tasklet_disable here (at least for tx one)

I think you have right as tasklet_kill() will wait for scheduled tasklet . Originally in my patch (see below) I used wait_event as I thought tasklet_kill() may prevent scheduled tasklet to be executed (hence cause leak) but that seems to be not true.

Quoted 4 lines

I agree with rx side (good catch!!), but on tx one I guess usb_kill_urb() is already waiting for tx pending so we just need to use tasklet_kill at the end of mt76u_stop_queues, in this way we will free pending skbs during suspend

Quoted 4 lines

I looked more into that and there are some issues with this approach. tx_tasklet do mt76_txq_schedule() which can queue tx frames. Also we do not free skb's that require status check and dev->usb.stat_work is already (correctly) stopped on mac80211.stop.

right

Quoted 3 lines

I'll use wait_event(dev->tx_wait) on mac80211 stop to handle those issues correctly.

Ok, but as you pointed before 'right moment to deallocate the skbs is during suspend' so I still preffer to flush statuses there.
