In current design, whenever the BHI interrupt is fired, the
execution environment is updated. This can cause race conditions
and impede ongoing power up/down processing. For example, if a
power down is in progress, MHI host updates to a local "disabled"
execution environment. If a BHI interrupt fires later, that value
gets replaced with one from the BHI EE register. This impacts the
controller as it does not expect multiple RDDM execution
environment change status callbacks as an example. Another issue
would be that the device can enter mission mode and the execution
environment is updated, while device creation for SBL channels is
still going on due to slower PM state worker thread run, leading
to multiple attempts at opening the same channel.

Ensure that EE changes are handled only from appropriate places
and occur one after another and handle only PBL modes or RDDM EE
changes as critical events directly from the interrupt handler.
Simplify handling by waiting for SYS ERROR before handling RDDM.
This also makes sure that we use the correct execution environment
to notify the controller driver when the device resets to one of
the PBL execution environments.

Bhaumik, can you explain the above change?  Before this patch (which is 
now committed), if there was a fatal error, the controller was notified 
(MHI_CB_FATAL_ERROR) and it decided all action.  After this patch, the 
controller is notified, but also the core attempts to handle the syserr.

This is a change in behavior, and seems to make a mess of the 
controller, and possibly the core fighting each other.

Specifically, I'm rebasing the AIC100 driver onto 5.13, which has this 
change, and I'm seeing a serious regression.  I'm thinking that for the 
PBL/EDL/PTHRU case, mhi_pm_sys_err_handler() should not be called.

Thoughts?

I see. We use this heavily for entry to EDL use-cases.

We do require the mhi_pm_sys_err_handler() to be called in those cases
as any entry to PBL/EDL means there is need to clean-up MHI host and 
notify all
its clients.

We include PTHRU in here because its a SYS ERROR in PBL modes.

Premise being the controller should not be in that business of doing any 
of
the clean-up that is responsibility of the core driver. We're using this 
feature
set to ensure controller is only notified.

What does AIC100 do on fatal error that you run in to issues? I don't 
think
any of the other controllers do anything other than disabling runtime PM 
since
device is down. Maybe there's some room for improvement.

Thanks,
Bhaumik

Our usecase is PBL as a result of a full device crash.  AIC100 doesn't 
exercise the EDL/PTHRU usecases.  (Just giving you some context, not 
trying to imply EDL is not valuable to others for example).

In that case (FATAL_ERROR), our controller schedules a work item, and 
then returnsas we assume FATAL_ERROR is notified in atomic context.  We 
need to do non-mhi cleanup first.  Then we powerdown the MHI to cleanup 
the MHI core, and kick off all the clients (its been a long while, but 
initially, we were seeing the syserr handling in the core not 
sufficiently kicking off the clients).  Then we power up MHI.  MHI will 
init in PBL, still in syserr, and handle it.

I haven't fully traced everything, but we were getting into some really 
bad states with the core triggering mhi_pm_sys_err_handler() per this patch.

Its important that we have control over the ordering of our cleanup, vs 
the MHI cleanup.  Sadly, non-atomic context (sleeping) is a requirement 
of our cleanup.

Seems like we have differing requirements here.  Hmm.  What about an API 
the controller can call, that does mhi_pm_sys_err_handler() (or 
equivalent) so that the controller can control when the MHI core cleanup 
is done, but doesn't need to be concerned with the details?  Or, do you 
have a suggestion?

I see why you're seeing the issue. We had a design shift when we 
introduced
EDL handling and updated how the execution environments and state 
changes get
processed.

Previously, you would only receive the FATAL ERROR callback if a 
SYS_ERROR
entry in PBL execution environment occurred. Now, you're getting both 
the
callbacks as MHI core driver takes the responsibility of SYS_ERROR 
handling
and related clean-up.

The way we can take it forward is - FATAL ERROR callback should just be 
an
indication to the controller that device saw a SYS_ERROR and has entered 
PBL.

The SYS_ERROR callback is sleep-capable and will block for the 
controller to
perform any heavy-lifting clean-up with the exception of an 
mhi_power_down()
call from within that callback. If that provision is desired, it can be 
taken
care of in a future patch as an async power down request or something 
equivalent.

I will push a patch to improve the documentation for this.

Thanks,
Bhaumik
