[PATCH] mtd: nand: raw: qcom_nandc: Don't clear_bam_transaction on READID

[PATCH] mtd: nand: raw: qcom_nandc: Don't clear_bam_transaction on READID

[Konrad Dybcio]

While I have absolutely 0 idea why and how, running clear_bam_transaction
when READID is issued makes the DMA totally clog up and refuse to function
at all on mdm9607. In fact, it is so bad that all the data gets garbled
and after a short while in the nand probe flow, the CPU decides that
sepuku is the only option.

Removing _READID from the if condition makes it work like a charm, I can
read data and mount partitions without a problem.

This is totally just an observation which took me an inhumane amount of
debug prints to find.. perhaps there's a better reason behind this, but
I can't seem to find any answers.. Therefore, this is a BIG RFC!

I'm adding two people from codeaurora who worked a lot on this driver.
Hopefully they will have an idea :)

Sadre, I've spent a significant amount of time reviewing your patches,
now it's your turn to not take a month to answer to your peers
proposals.

Please help reviewing this patch.

BTW why is this driver still using cmdfund? It should have been
migrated to ->exec_op() a long time ago.

Thanks,
Miquèl

Sorry. I was hoping that Qcom folks would chime in as I don't have any idea
about the mdm9607 platform. It could be that the mail server migration from
codeaurora to quicinc put a barrier here.

Let me ping them internally.

That would be great, given the number of updates this driver has
received, it would be nice to tackle the legacy bits there.

I won't have access to the board for about two weeks, sorry.

When I get to it, I'll surely try to send you the logs, though there

the NAND being all zeroed out in pr_err/_debug/etc.

I won't have access to the board for about two weeks, sorry.

When I get to it, I'll surely try to send you the logs, though there

wasn't much more than just something jumping to who-knows-where

after clear_bam_transaction was called, resulting in values associated with

the NAND being all zeroed out in pr_err/_debug/etc.

     Ok sure. So was the READID command itself failing (or) the 
subsequent one ?
    We can check which parameter reset by the clear_bam_transaction is 
causing the
    failure.  Meanwhile, looping in Pradeep who has access to the board, 
so in a better
    position to debug.

I'm sorry I have so few details on hand, and no kernel tree (no access 
to that machine either, for now).


I will try to describe to the best of my abilities what I recall.


My methodology of making sure things don't go haywire was to print the 
oob size

of our NAND basically every two lines of code (yes, i was very desperate 
at one point),

as that was zeroed out when *the bug* happened, leading to a kernel 
bug/panic/stall

(can't recall what exactly it was, but it said something along the lines 
of "no support for

oob size 0" and then it didn't fail graceully, leading to some bad jumps 
and ultimately

a dead platform..)


after hours of digging, I found out that everything goes fine until 
clear_bam_transaction is called,

after that gets executed every nand op starts reading all zeroes (for 
example in JEDEC ID check)

so I added the changes from this patch, and things magically started 
working... My suspicion is

that the underlying FIFO isn't fully drained (is it a FIFO on 9607? bah, 
i work on too many socs at once)

and this function only makes Linux think it is, without actually 
draining it, and the leftover

commands get executed with some parts of them getting overwritten, 
resulting in the

famous garbage in - garbage out situation, but that's only a guesstimate..


Do note this somehow worked fine on 5.11 and then broke on 5.12/13. I 
went as far as replacing most

of the kernel with the updated/downgraded parts via git checkout (i 
tried many combinations),

to no avail.. I even tried different compilers and optimization levels, 
thinking it could have been

a codegen issue, but no luck either.


I.. do understand this email is a total mess to read, as much as it was 
to write, but

without access to my code and the machine itself I can't give you solid 
details, and

the fact this situation is far from ordinary doesn't help either..


The latest (ancient, not quite pretty, but probably working if my memory 
is correct) version of my patches

for the mdm9607 is available at [1], I will push the new revision after 
I get access to the workstation.

This does look like a pointer error at some point and some kernel data
has been corrupted very badly by the driver.

I would bet for a non allocated bam-ish pointer that is reset to zero
in the clear_bam_transaction() helper.

Can you get your hands on the board again?
It would be nice to check if the allocation always occurs before use,
and if yes on how much bytes.

If the pointer is not dangling, then perhaps something else smashes
that pointer.

This does look like a pointer error at some point and some kernel data

I think so, if I recall correctly there are no more callers in this

  Sorry for the delayed response.

      As a first step, Can you enable KASAN and check if you get any 
warnings ?

      Then, can you check inside clear_bam_transaction, which parameter 
resetting specifically is causing the issue ?

I have 3 logs for you:

[1] is KASAN=y, with this patch
[2] is KASAN=y, WITHOUT this patch (should die, but doesn't - does KASAN prevent it from doing something stupid?)
[3] is KASAN=n, WITHOUT this patch (dies as expected)

Looks like there's a lot happening..

[Looks at the calendar] What can I say... lots of things happened :)

I have 3 logs for you:

[1] is KASAN=y, with this patch
[2] is KASAN=y, WITHOUT this patch (should die, but doesn't - does KASAN prevent it from doing something stupid?)
[3] is KASAN=n, WITHOUT this patch (dies as expected)

Looks like there's a lot happening..

We reproduced the same issue on SDX65-MTP board and your hack worked :)
Since this board is available inside Qcom, now Sadre and Sricharan should be
able to investigate it properly.
