We are seeing below error randomly in the case where only one MSI vector is configured: kernel: ath11k_pci 0000:03:00.0: wmi command 16387 timeout The reason is, currently, in ath11k_pcic_ext_irq_enable(), ATH11K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED is set before NAPI is enabled. This results in a race condition: after ATH11K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED is set but before NAPI enabled, CE interrupt breaks in. Since IRQ is shared by CE and data path, ath11k_pcic_ext_interrupt_handler() is also called where we call disable_irq_nosync() to disable IRQ. Then napi_schedule() is called but it does nothing because NAPI is not enabled at that time, meaning ath11k_pcic_ext_grp_napi_poll() will never run, so we have no chance to call enable_irq() to enable IRQ back. Finally we get above error. Fix it by setting ATH11K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED after all NAPI and IRQ work are done. With the fix, we are sure that by the time ATH11K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED is set, NAPI is enabled. Note that the fix above also introduce some side effects: if ath11k_pcic_ext_interrupt_handler() breaks in after NAPI enabled but before ATH11K_FLAG_EXT_IRQ_ENABLED set, nothing will be done by the handler this time, the work will be postponed till the next time the IRQ fires.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
