If a command event is found on the event ring during an interrupt,
we need to stop the command timer with del_timer(). Since del_timer()
can fail if the timer is running and waiting on the xHCI lock, then
it maybe get the wrong timeout command in xhci_handle_command_timeout()
if host fetched a new command and updated the xhci->current_cmd in
handle_cmd_completion(). For this situation, we need a way to signal
to the command timer that everything is fine and it should exit.

We should introduce a counter (xhci->current_cmd_pending) for the number
of pending commands. If we need to cancel the command timer and del_timer()
succeeds, we decrement the number of pending commands. If del_timer() fails,
we leave the number of pending commands alone.

For handling timeout command, in xhci_handle_command_timeout() we will check
the counter after decrementing it, if the counter (xhci->current_cmd_pending)
is 0, which means xhci->current_cmd is the right timeout command. If the
counter (xhci->current_cmd_pending) is greater than 0, which means current
timeout command has been handled by host and host has fetched new command as
xhci->current_cmd, then just return and wait for new current command.

Yes, that's the cases what I want to handle, thanks for your explicit
explanation.

Yes,

What I wanted to say is that as it relies on Baolus patch for that one case
it seems that patch 2/2 can be replaced by a single line change:

if (!xhci->current_cmd || timer_pending(&xhci->cmd_timer))

Right?

After checking the code again, I am agree with you. I will resend the

From my understanding, if the timer was fired, no matter the timeout
function is running or finished, timer_pending() will return false.
Please correct me if I made mistakes. Thanks.

Alright, I gathered all current work related to xhci races and timeouts
and put them into a branch:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mnyman/xhci.git timeout_race_fixes

Its based on 4.9
It includes a few other patches just to avoid conflicts and  make my life easier

Interesting patches are:

ee4eb91 xhci: remove unnecessary check for pending timer
0cba67d xhci: detect stop endpoint race using pending timer instead of counter.
4f2535f xhci: Handle command completion and timeout race
b9d00d7 usb: host: xhci: Fix possible wild pointer when handling abort command
529a5a0 usb: xhci: fix possible wild pointer
4766555 xhci: Fix race related to abort operation
de834a3 xhci: Use delayed_work instead of timer for command timeout
69973b8 Linux 4.9

The fixes for command queue races will go to usb-linus and stable, the
reworks for stop ep watchdog timer will go to usb-next.

Still completely untested, (well it compiles)

Felipe gave instructions how to modify dwc3 driver to timeout on address
devicecommands to test these, I'll try to set that up.

All additional testing is welcome, especially if you can trigger timeouts
and races

How about applying below patch in your 'timeout_race_fixes' branch?
[PATCH] usb: host: xhci: Clean up commands when stop endpoint command is timeout

Below is the latest code. I put my comments in line.

 322 static int xhci_abort_cmd_ring(struct xhci_hcd *xhci)
 323 {
 324         u64 temp_64;
 325         int ret;
 326
 327         xhci_dbg(xhci, "Abort command ring\n");
 328
 329         reinit_completion(&xhci->cmd_ring_stop_completion);
 330
 331         temp_64 = xhci_read_64(xhci, &xhci->op_regs->cmd_ring);
 332         xhci_write_64(xhci, temp_64 | CMD_RING_ABORT,
 333                         &xhci->op_regs->cmd_ring);

We should hold xhci->lock when we are modifying xhci registers
at runtime.


 334
 335         /* Section 4.6.1.2 of xHCI 1.0 spec says software should
 336          * time the completion od all xHCI commands, including

 341          */
 342         ret = xhci_handshake(&xhci->op_regs->cmd_ring,
 343                         CMD_RING_RUNNING, 0, 5 * 1000 * 1000);
 344         if (ret < 0) {
 345                 /* we are about to kill xhci, give it one more chance */

The retry of setting CMD_RING_ABORT is not necessary according to
previous discussion. We have cleaned code for second try in
xhci_handle_command_timeout(). Need to clean up here as well.

 346                 xhci_write_64(xhci, temp_64 | CMD_RING_ABORT,
 347                               &xhci->op_regs->cmd_ring);
 348                 udelay(1000);
 349                 ret = xhci_handshake(&xhci->op_regs->cmd_ring,
 350                                      CMD_RING_RUNNING, 0, 3 * 1000 * 1000);
 351                 if (ret < 0) {
 352                         xhci_err(xhci, "Stopped the command ring failed, "
 353                                  "maybe the host is dead\n");
 354                         xhci->xhc_state |= XHCI_STATE_DYING;
 355                         xhci_halt(xhci);
 356                         return -ESHUTDOWN;
 357                 }
 358         }
 359         /*
 360          * Writing the CMD_RING_ABORT bit should cause a cmd completion event,
 361          * however on some host hw the CMD_RING_RUNNING bit is correctly cleared
 362          * but the completion event in never sent. Wait 2 secs (arbitrary

 364          */

This should be implemented with a quirk bit. It's not common for all host controllers.

 365         if (!wait_for_completion_timeout(&xhci->cmd_ring_stop_completion,
 366                                          2 * HZ)) {
 367                 xhci_dbg(xhci, "No stop event for abort, ring start fail?\n");
 368                 xhci_cleanup_command_queue(xhci);
 369         } else {
 370                 unsigned long flags;
 371
 372                 spin_lock_irqsave(&xhci->lock, flags);
 373                 xhci_handle_stopped_cmd_ring(xhci, xhci_next_queued_cmd(xhci));
 374                 spin_unlock_irqrestore(&xhci->lock, flags);
 375         }
 376         return 0;
 377 }

I post the code below and add my comments in line.

1291         if (!xhci->current_cmd || delayed_work_pending(&xhci->cmd_timer)) {
1292                 spin_unlock_irqrestore(&xhci->lock, flags);
1293                 return;
1294         }

1299         hw_ring_state = xhci_read_64(xhci, &xhci->op_regs->cmd_ring);

1301             (hw_ring_state & CMD_RING_RUNNING))  {

1310                         usb_hc_died(xhci_to_hcd(xhci)->primary_hcd);
1311                         xhci_dbg(xhci, "xHCI host controller is dead.\n");

1317         if (xhci->xhc_state & XHCI_STATE_REMOVING) {

1321                 return;
1322         }

I think this part of code should be moved up to line 1295.

1323
1324         /* command timeout on stopped ring, ring can't be aborted */
1325         xhci_dbg(xhci, "Command timeout on stopped ring\n");
1326         xhci_handle_stopped_cmd_ring(xhci, xhci->current_cmd);
1327         spin_unlock_irqrestore(&xhci->lock, flags);

This part of code is tricky. I have no idea about in which case should this
code be executed? Anyway, we shouldn't call xhci_handle_stopped_cmd_ring()
here, right?

1328         return;
1329 }

We set CMD_RING_STATE_ABORTED state under locking. I'm not checking what
is for taking lock for register though, I guess it should be enough just
lock around of read=>write of ->cmd_ring if need lock.

[Rather ->cmd_ring user should check CMD_RING_STATE_ABORTED state.]

I think we should check both of CRR and even of stop completion. Because
CRR and stop completion was not same time (both can be first).
