During an SSR(Sub-System Restart) process, the remoteproc driver will try to read the crash reason from SMEM. The qcom_smem_get() backing such operations does however take the hwspinlock (tcsr mutex), which might be held by the dying remoteproc. The associated timeout on the hwspin_lock_timeout_irqsave() would take care of the system not hanging forever, but the get operation will fail, unnecessarily delaying the process for the 'HWSPINLOCK_TIMEOUT' duration (currently is '1s'), and finally resulting in failure to get crash information from SMEM. This timeout can be avoided by removing the hwspinlock in the qcom_smem_get routine. SMEM ensures that the allocated item will only be visible after the new item is safe to use by following a specific order of updates. In the private partition case, qcom_smem_get_private() will use 'offset_free_uncached' as a loop boundary when looking for existing allocated items. The corresponding allocation will only update offset_free_uncached once the item is fully initialized. hdr->canary = SMEM_PRIVATE_CANARY; hdr->item = cpu_to_le16(item); hdr->size = cpu_to_le32(ALIGN(size, 8)); hdr->padding_data = cpu_to_le16(le32_to_cpu(hdr->size) - size); hdr->padding_hdr = 0; wmb(); le32_add_cpu(&phdr->offset_free_uncached, alloc_size); The global partition is similar but uses the "entry->allocated" variable to ensure the item is not visible to qcom_smem_get_global().
