Under stress occasions some TI devices might not return early when
reading the status register during the quirk invocation of xhci_irq made
by usb_hcd_pci_remove. This means that instead of returning, we end up
handling this interruption in the middle of a shutdown. Since
xhci->event_ring has already been freed in xhci_mem_cleanup, we end up
accessing freed memory, causing the Oops below.
commit 8c24d6d7b0 ("usb: xhci: stop everything on the first call to
xhci_stop") is the one that changed the instant in which we clean up the
event queue when stopping a device. Before, we didn't call
xhci_mem_cleanup at the first time xhci_stop is executed (for the shared
HCD), instead, we only did it after the invocation for the primary HCD,
much later at the removal path. The code flow for this oops looks like
this:
xhci_pci_remove()
usb_remove_hcd(xhci->shared)
xhci_stop(xhci->shared)
xhci_halt()
xhci_mem_cleanup(xhci); // Free the event_queue
usb_hcd_pci_remove(primary)
xhci_irq() // Access the event_queue if STS_EINT is set. Crash.
xhci_stop()
xhci_halt()
// return early
The fix modifies xhci_stop to only cleanup the xhci data when releasing
the primary HCD. This way, we still have the event_queue configured
when invoking xhci_irq. We still halt the device on the first call to
xhci_stop, though.
I could reproduce this issue several times on the mainline kernel by
doing a bind-unbind stress test with a specific storage gadget attached.
I also ran the same test over-night with my patch applied and didn't
observe the issue anymore.
