-Subject: ipmi: fix SSIF not responding under certain cond.
-
-From: Zhang Yuchen <zhangyuchen.lcr@bytedance.com>
-
-commit 6d2555cde2918409b0331560e66f84a0ad4849c6 upstream.
-
-The ipmi communication is not restored after a specific version of BMC is
-upgraded on our server.
-The ipmi driver does not respond after printing the following log:
-
- ipmi_ssif: Invalid response getting flags: 1c 1
-
-I found that after entering this branch, ssif_info->ssif_state always
-holds SSIF_GETTING_FLAGS and never return to IDLE.
-
-As a result, the driver cannot be loaded, because the driver status is
-checked during the unload process and must be IDLE in shutdown_ssif():
-
- while (ssif_info->ssif_state != SSIF_IDLE)
- schedule_timeout(1);
-
-The process trigger this problem is:
-
-1. One msg timeout and next msg start send, and call
-ssif_set_need_watch().
-
-2. ssif_set_need_watch()->watch_timeout()->start_flag_fetch() change
-ssif_state to SSIF_GETTING_FLAGS.
-
-3. In msg_done_handler() ssif_state == SSIF_GETTING_FLAGS, if an error
-message is received, the second branch does not modify the ssif_state.
-
-4. All retry action need IS_SSIF_IDLE() == True. Include retry action in
-watch_timeout(), msg_done_handler(). Sending msg does not work either.
-SSIF_IDLE is also checked in start_next_msg().
-
-5. The only thing that can be triggered in the SSIF driver is
-watch_timeout(), after destory_user(), this timer will stop too.
-
-So, if enter this branch, the ssif_state will remain SSIF_GETTING_FLAGS
-and can't send msg, no timer started, can't unload.
-
-We did a comparative test before and after adding this patch, and the
-result is effective.
-
-Fixes: 259307074bfc ("ipmi: Add SMBus interface driver (SSIF)")
