net/mlx5e: Disable softirq in mlx5e_activate_rq to avoid race condition
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When the driver activates the channels, it assumes NAPI isn't running
yet. mlx5e_activate_rq posts a NOP WQE to ICOSQ to trigger a hardware
interrupt and start NAPI, which will run mlx5e_alloc_rx_mpwqe and post
UMR WQEs to ICOSQ to be able to receive packets with striding RQ.

Unfortunately, a race condition is possible if NAPI is triggered by
something else (for example, TX) at a bad timing, before
mlx5e_activate_rq finishes. In this case, mlx5e_alloc_rx_mpwqe may post
UMR WQEs to ICOSQ, and with the bad timing, the wqe_info of the first
UMR may be overwritten by the wqe_info of the NOP posted by
mlx5e_activate_rq.

The consequence is that icosq->db.wqe_info[0].num_wqebbs will be changed
from MLX5E_UMR_WQEBBS to 1, disrupting the integrity of the array-based
linked list in wqe_info[]. mlx5e_poll_ico_cq will hang in an infinite
loop after processing wqe_info[0], because after the corruption, the
next item to be processed will be wqe_info[1], which is filled with
zeros, and `sqcc += wi->num_wqebbs` will never move further.

This commit fixes this race condition by using async_icosq to post the
NOP and trigger the interrupt. async_icosq is always protected with a
spinlock, eliminating the race condition.

Fixes: bc77b24 ("net/mlx5e: Add fragmented memory support for RX multi packet WQE")
