The queue of ‘wmi_mgmt_tx_queue’ is protected by a different lock: ar->data_lock vs list->lock, the result is no protection. So when ath10k_mgmt_over_wmi_tx_work() and ath10k_mac_tx_wmi_mgmt() running concurrently on different CPUs, there appear to be a rare corner cases when the queue length is 1, CPUx (skb_deuque) CPUy (__skb_queue_tail) next=list prev=list struct sk_buff *skb = skb_peek(list); WRITE_ONCE(newsk->next, next); WRITE_ONCE(list->qlen, list->qlen - 1);WRITE_ONCE(newsk->prev, prev); next = skb->next; WRITE_ONCE(next->prev, newsk); prev = skb->prev; WRITE_ONCE(prev->next, newsk); skb->next = skb->prev = NULL; list->qlen++; WRITE_ONCE(next->prev, prev); WRITE_ONCE(prev->next, next); If the instruction ‘next = skb->next’ is executed before ‘WRITE_ONCE(prev->next, newsk)’, newsk will be lost, as CPUx get the old ‘next’ pointer, but the length is still added by one. The final result is the length of the queue will reach the maximum value but the queue is empty. So remove ar->data_lock, and use 'skb_queue_tail' instead of '__skb_queue_tail' to prevent the potential race condition. Also switch to use skb_queue_len_lockless, in case we queue a few SKBs simultaneously.
