When QMAN_FQ_FLAG_DYNAMIC_FQID is set, there's a race condition between
fq_table[fq->idx] state and freeing/allocating from the pool and
WARN_ON(fq_table[fq->idx]) in qman_create_fq() gets triggered.

Indeed, we can have:
          Thread A                             Thread B
     qman_destroy_fq()                    qman_create_fq()
       qman_release_fqid()
         qman_shutdown_fq()
         gen_pool_free()
            -- At this point, the fqid is available again --
                                            qman_alloc_fqid()
            -- so, we can get the just-freed fqid in thread B --
                                            fq->fqid = fqid;
                                            fq->idx = fqid * 2;
                                            WARN_ON(fq_table[fq->idx]);
                                            fq_table[fq->idx] = fq;
      fq_table[fq->idx] = NULL;

And adding some logs between qman_release_fqid() and
fq_table[fq->idx] = NULL makes the WARN_ON() trigger a lot more.

To prevent that, ensure that fq_table[fq->idx] is set to NULL before
gen_pool_free() is called by using smp_wmb().

You dismantle/reimplement qman_release_fqid(). Is that the only possible approach ? Isn't it possible to just clear fq_table[fq->idx] _before_ calling qman_release_fqid() ?

I'm afraid that clearing fq_table[fq->idx] before calling
qman_release_fqid() will create another race condition:
In qm_mr_process_task() we have:
                        case QM_MR_VERB_FQRN:
                        case QM_MR_VERB_FQRL:
                                /* Lookup in the retirement table */
                                fq = fqid_to_fq(qm_fqid_get(&msg->fq));
                                if (WARN_ON(!fq))
                                        break;
                                fq_state_change(p, fq, msg, verb);
                                if (fq->cb.fqs)
                                        fq->cb.fqs(p, fq, msg);
                                break;
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.19-rc4/source/drivers/soc/fsl/qbman/qman.c#L1509-L1518
with fqid_to_fq(fqid) expanding to fq_table[fqid * 2];

Is it possible for those "cases" (QM_MR_VERB_FQRN/QM_MR_VERB_FQRL) to
happen after fq_table[fq->idx] is cleared and before qman_shutdown_fq()
is called?
In doubt, I chose the safe side, but I'm not 100% sure it can happen.


Thanks!

Regards,
Richard

NB: I'm not 100% sure of the need of a barrier here, since even without
it, the WARN_ON() wasn't triggered any more.
