leds: Fix LED_OFF brightness race
While commit fa15d8c ("leds: Fix set_brightness_delayed() race")
successfully forces led_set_brightness() to be called with LED_OFF at
least once when switching from blinking to LED on state so that
hw-blinking can be disabled, another race remains. Indeed in
led_set_brightness(LED_OFF) followed by led_set_brightness(any)
scenario the following CPU scheduling can happen:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
set_brightness_delayed() {
test_and_clear_bit(BRIGHTNESS_OFF)
led_set_brightness(LED_OFF) {
set_bit(BRIGHTNESS_OFF)
queue_work()
}
led_set_brightness(any) {
set_bit(BRIGHTNESS)
queue_work() //already queued
}
test_and_clear_bit(BRIGHTNESS)
/* LED set with brightness any */
}
/* From previous CPU1 queue_work() */
set_brightness_delayed() {
test_and_clear_bit(BRIGHTNESS_OFF)
/* LED turned off */
test_and_clear_bit(BRIGHTNESS)
/* Clear from previous run, LED remains off */
In that case the led_set_brightness(LED_OFF)/led_set_brightness(any)
sequence will be effectively executed in reverse order and LED will
remain off.
With the introduction of commit 32360bf ("leds: Introduce ordered
workqueue for LEDs events instead of system_wq") the race is easier to
trigger as sysfs brightness configuration does not wait for
set_brightness_delayed() work to finish (flush_work() removal).
Use delayed_set_value to optionnally re-configure brightness after a
LED_OFF. That way a LED state could be configured more that once but
final state will always be as expected. Ensure that delayed_set_value
modification is seen before set_bit() using smp_mb__before_atomic().
