ASoC: dpcm: Fix race between FE/BE updates and trigger
DPCM can update the FE/BE connection states totally asynchronously from the FE's PCM state. Most of FE/BE state changes are protected by mutex, so that they won't race, but there are still some actions that are uncovered. For example, suppose to switch a BE while a FE's stream is running. This would call soc_dpcm_runtime_update(), which sets FE's runtime_update flag, then sets up and starts BEs, and clears FE's runtime_update flag again. When a device emits XRUN during this operation, the PCM core triggers snd_pcm_stop(XRUN). Since the trigger action is an atomic ops, this isn't blocked by the mutex, thus it kicks off DPCM's trigger action. It eventually updates and clears FE's runtime_update flag while soc_dpcm_runtime_update() is running concurrently, and it results in confusion. Usually, for avoiding such a race, we take a lock. There is a PCM stream lock for that purpose. However, as already mentioned, the trigger action is atomic, and we can't take the lock for the whole soc_dpcm_runtime_update() or other operations that include the lengthy jobs like hw_params or prepare. This patch provides an alternative solution. This adds a way to defer the conflicting trigger callback to be executed at the end of FE/BE state changes. For doing it, two things are introduced: - Each runtime_update state change of FEs is protected via PCM stream lock. - The FE's trigger callback checks the runtime_update flag. If it's not set, the trigger action is executed there. If set, mark the pending trigger action and returns immediately. - At the exit of runtime_update state change, it checks whether the pending trigger is present. If yes, it executes the trigger action at this point.
