Subject: [PATCH v5] can: mcp251xfd: fix infinite loop when xmit fails
Date: Tue, 14 May 2024 11:58:22 +0100

From: Vitor Soares <vitor.soares@toradex.com>

When the mcp251xfd_start_xmit() function fails, the driver stops
processing messages, and the interrupt routine does not return,
running indefinitely even after killing the running application.

Error messages:
[  441.298819] mcp251xfd spi2.0 can0: ERROR in mcp251xfd_start_xmit: -16
[  441.306498] mcp251xfd spi2.0 can0: Transmit Event FIFO buffer not empty. (seq=0x000017c7, tef_tail=0x000017cf, tef_head=0x000017d0, tx_head=0x000017d3).
.. and repeat forever.

The issue can be triggered when multiple devices share the same
SPI interface. And there is concurrent access to the bus.

The problem occurs because tx_ring->head increments even if
mcp251xfd_start_xmit() fails. Consequently, the driver skips one
TX package while still expecting a response in
mcp251xfd_handle_tefif_one().

This patch resolves the issue by starting a workqueue to write
the tx obj synchronously if err = -EBUSY. In case of another error,
it decrements tx_ring->head, removes skb from the echo stack, and
drops the message.

Fixes: 55e5b97f003e ("can: mcp25xxfd: add driver for Microchip MCP25xxFD SPI CAN")

V4->V5:
  - Start a workqueue to write tx obj with spi_sync() when spi_async() == -EBUSY.

V3->V4:
  - Leave can_put_echo_skb() and stop the queue if needed, before mcp251xfd_tx_obj_write().
  - Re-sync head and remove echo skb if mcp251xfd_tx_obj_write() fails.
  - Revert -> return NETDEV_TX_BUSY if mcp251xfd_tx_obj_write() == -EBUSY.

V2->V3:
  - Add tx_dropped stats.
  - netdev_sent_queue() only if can_put_echo_skb() succeed.

V1->V2:
  - Return NETDEV_TX_BUSY if mcp251xfd_tx_obj_write() == -EBUSY.
  - Rework the commit message to address the change above.
  - Change can_put_echo_skb() to be called after mcp251xfd_tx_obj_write() succeed.
    Otherwise, we get Kernel NULL pointer dereference error.
