Observe that in the mtk-cqdma.c file, functions like mtk_cqdma_issue_pending() and mtk_cqdma_free_active_desc() properly acquire the pc lock before the vc lock when handling pc and vc fields. However, mtk_cqdma_tx_status() violates this order by first acquiring the vc lock before invoking mtk_cqdma_find_active_desc(), which subsequently takes the pc lock. This reversed locking sequence (vc → pc) contradicts the established pc → vc order and creates deadlock risks. Fix the issue by moving the vc lock acquisition code from mtk_cqdma_find_active_desc() to mtk_cqdma_tx_status(). Ensure the pc lock is acquired before the vc lock in the calling function to maintain correct locking hierarchy. Note that since mtk_cqdma_find_active_desc() is a static function with only one caller (mtk_cqdma_tx_status()), this modification safely eliminates the deadlock possibility without affecting other components. This possible bug is found by an experimental static analysis tool developed by our team. This tool analyzes the locking APIs to extract function pairs that can be concurrently executed, and then analyzes the instructions in the paired functions to identify possible concurrency bugs including deadlocks, data races and atomicity violations.

For nonlinear skbs, it reads uninitialized memory inside the skb headroom, essentially randomizing the tag. I have observed it gets set to 6 most of the time. Example where ksz9477_rcv thinks that the packet from port 1 comes from port 6 (which does not exist for the ksz9896 that's in use), dropping the packet. Debug prints added by me (not included in this patch): [ 256.645337] ksz9477_rcv:323 tag0=6 [ 256.645349] skb len=47 headroom=78 headlen=0 tailroom=0 mac=(64,14) mac_len=14 net=(78,0) trans=78 shinfo(txflags=0 nr_frags=1 gso(size=0 type=0 segs=0)) csum(0x0 start=0 offset=0 ip_summed=0 complete_sw=0 valid=0 level=0) hash(0x0 sw=0 l4=0) proto=0x00f8 pkttype=1 iif=3 priority=0x0 mark=0x0 alloc_cpu=0 vlan_all=0x0 encapsulation=0 inner(proto=0x0000, mac=0, net=0, trans=0) [ 256.645377] dev name=end1 feat=0x0002e10200114bb3 [ 256.645386] skb headroom: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 256.645395] skb headroom: 00000010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 256.645403] skb headroom: 00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 256.645411] skb headroom: 00000030: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [ 256.645420] skb headroom: 00000040: ff ff ff ff ff ff 00 1c 19 f2 e2 db 08 06 [ 256.645428] skb frag: 00000000: 00 01 08 00 06 04 00 01 00 1c 19 f2 e2 db 0a 02 [ 256.645436] skb frag: 00000010: 00 83 00 00 00 00 00 00 0a 02 a0 2f 00 00 00 00 [ 256.645444] skb frag: 00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 [ 256.645452] ksz_common_rcv:92 dsa_conduit_find_user returned NULL Call skb_linearize before trying to access the tag.
