[regression v4.11] 617f01211baf ("8139too: use napi_complete_done()")

[Ville Syrjälä]

Hi,

My old P3 laptop started to die on me in the middle of larger compile
jobs (using distcc) after v4.11-rc<something>. I bisected the problem
to 617f01211baf ("8139too: use napi_complete_done()").

Unfortunately I wasn't able to capture a full oops as the machine doesn't
have serial and ramoops failed me. I did get one partial oops on vgacon
which showed rtl8139_poll() being involved (EIP was around
_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore() supposedly), so seems to agree with my
bisect result.

So maybe some kind of nasty thing going between the hard irq and
softirq? Perhaps UP related? I tried to stare at the locking around
rtl8139_poll() for a while but it looked mostly sane to me.

Thanks a lot for the detective work, I am so sorry for this !

Could you try the following patch ?

I do not really see what could be wrong, the code should run just fine
on UP.

Thanks.

One theory is that the interrupt masking isn't working properly
and interrupts are still arriving and hitting the NAPI state even
when we are actively polling NAPI.

And this problem was masked by the locking done here.

Yes.

Ville, can you rule out irq sharing between the 8139 and some other
device ? It's a candidate for unexpected interrupt handler invocation
with older pc, even with properly working hardware.

Eric,
  If napi_complete_done() calls could affect drivers on older
hardware, I can test the following:

drivers/net/ethernet/3com/typhoon.c
drivers/net/ethernet/amd/pcnet32.c
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c
drivers/net/ethernet/dec/tulip/interrupt.c
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e100.c
drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000/e1000_main.c
drivers/net/ethernet/smsc/epic100.c
drivers/net/ethernet/via/via-rhine.c

[PATCH net] 8139too: revisit napi_complete_done() usage

[Eric Dumazet]

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

It seems we have to be more careful in napi_complete_done()
use. This patch is not a revert, as it seems we can
avoid bug that Ville reported by moving the napi_complete_done()
test in the spinlock section.

Many thanks to Ville for detective work and all tests.

Eric,
  sorry to bring up this old thread, but I had a question. Do we have
to surround most usage of napi_complete_done() with a spinlock, or was
this problem restricted to just the 8139too driver?

Eric,

we have a bugreport of what seems to be the same problem:

  https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1042208

Do you plan to submit the patch above or is the conclusion that this is
rather a hardware problem?

Thanks for this report.

Interesting to see how many drivers got the netpoll stuff wrong :/

Can you try :

diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.c

The problem is more likely that netconsole handling can call rtl_tx()
from hard irq context, while standard NAPI poll calls it from BH

Meaning that the following sequence triggers a lockdep warning.

	u64_stats_update_begin(&tp->tx_stats.syncp);
	tp->tx_stats.packets++;
	tp->tx_stats.bytes += tx_skb->skb->len;
	u64_stats_update_end(&tp->tx_stats.syncp);

Lockdep does not know that poll_napi() ( called from netpoll_poll_dev())
uses an cmpxchg() to make sure that there is no race.

I am not sure how we can teach lockdep to not splat in this case.

Well, could you try the following patch ?
Thanks !
