Subject: [PATCH] remoteproc: imx_dsp_rproc: Add mutex protection for workqueue

The workqueue may execute late even after remoteproc is stopped or
stopping, some resources (rpmsg device and endpoint) have been
released in rproc_stop_subdevices(), then rproc_vq_interrupt()
access these resources will cause kennel dump.

Call trace:
virtqueue_add_split+0x1ac/0x560
virtqueue_add_inbuf+0x4c/0x60
rpmsg_recv_done+0x15c/0x294
vring_interrupt+0x6c/0xa4
rproc_vq_interrupt+0x30/0x50
imx_dsp_rproc_vq_work+0x24/0x40 [imx_dsp_rproc]

worker_thread+0x13c/0x470
kthread+0x154/0x160
ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20

Add mutex protection in imx_dsp_rproc_vq_work(), if the state is
not running, then just skip calling rproc_vq_interrupt().

Also the flush workqueue operation can't be added in rproc stop
for same reason.

I also give a look at other drivers, seems almost all drivers use rproc_vq_interrupt
has same issue, should use mutex to protect the mbox rx callback.

Peng.

The kernel documentation for this function [1] indicate that once it returns
there will no more jobs to process in that queue, _unless_ another job has been
queued _after_ the flush has started. What I suspect is happening here is that
a new job is queued between the time flush_work() returns and the remote processor
is switched off, something that should not be happening since all the
subdevices have been stopped in rproc_stop_subdevices().

These are not guaranteed to be atomic and sleeping with the mutex held is
guaranteed to deadlock the system.

I understand now - thanks for the details. Please send me another revision with
the above call sequence in the patch changelog. The one that is currently there
is obscure and doesn't provide a clear picture of what the problem is.

I was thinking more about this worker thread executing concurrently with
the remoteproc core but we are fine as long as a single mutex is used.
