USB: xhci: Add watchdog timer for URB cancellation.
In order to giveback a canceled URB, we must ensure that the xHCI
hardware will not access the buffer in an URB. We can't modify the
buffer pointers on endpoint rings without issuing and waiting for a stop
endpoint command. Since URBs can be canceled in interrupt context, we
can't wait on that command. The old code trusted that the host
controller would respond to the command, and would giveback the URBs in
the event handler. If the hardware never responds to the stop endpoint
command, the URBs will never be completed, and we might hang the USB
subsystem.
Implement a watchdog timer that is spawned whenever a stop endpoint
command is queued. If a stop endpoint command event is found on the
event ring during an interrupt, we need to stop the watchdog timer with
del_timer(). Since del_timer() can fail if the timer is running and
waiting on the xHCI lock, we need a way to signal to the timer that
everything is fine and it should exit. If we simply clear
EP_HALT_PENDING, a new stop endpoint command could sneak in and set it
before the watchdog timer can grab the lock.
Instead we use a combination of the EP_HALT_PENDING flag and a counter
for the number of pending stop endpoint commands
(xhci_virt_ep->stop_cmds_pending). If we need to cancel the watchdog
timer and del_timer() succeeds, we decrement the number of pending stop
endpoint commands. If del_timer() fails, we leave the number of pending
stop endpoint commands alone. In either case, we clear the
EP_HALT_PENDING flag.
The timer will decrement the number of pending stop endpoint commands
once it obtains the lock. If the timer is the tail end of the last stop
endpoint command (xhci_virt_ep->stop_cmds_pending == 0), and the
endpoint's command is still pending (EP_HALT_PENDING is set), we assume
the host is dying. The watchdog timer will set XHCI_STATE_DYING, try to
halt the xHCI host, and give back all pending URBs.
Various other places in the driver need to check whether the xHCI host
is dying. If the interrupt handler ever notices, it should immediately
stop processing events. The URB enqueue function should also return
-ESHUTDOWN. The URB dequeue function should simply return the value
of usb_hcd_check_unlink_urb() and the watchdog timer will take care of
giving the URB back. When a device is disconnected, the xHCI hardware
structures should be freed without issuing a disable slot command (since
the hardware probably won't respond to it anyway). The debugging
polling loop should stop polling if the host is dying.
When a device is disconnected, any pending watchdog timers are killed
with del_timer_sync(). It must be synchronous so that the watchdog
timer doesn't attempt to access the freed endpoint structures.
