[nvmewin] Compatibility issue with 1.5 version nvme driver

[Justina Lai]

Dear Sir/Madam,

We are facing compatibility issue on our PS5007 NVMe device with recent 1.5 version nvme driver.
Please check below issue description.

Phison PS5007 supports 7 IO queues, and if we use PS5007 with OFA driver on the platform core number>7, ex: 8-core or 12-core PC, we will see PC hang up and cannot enter OS like below:

After debugging on our side, we found the fail is caused by below flow:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
..........

  1.  SntiTranslateModeSense()

..........
2.IoCompletionRoutine()
    if (pDpc != NULL) {
        ASSERT(pAE->ntldrDump == FALSE);
        if (pAE->MultipleCoresToSingleQueueFlag) {
            StorPortAcquireSpinLock(pAE, StartIoLock, NULL, &StartLockHandle); ----------------------> execute lock
        } else {
            StorPortAcquireSpinLock(pAE, DpcLock, pDpc, &DpcLockhandle);
        }
    }
.........
callStorportNotification = pSrbExtension->pNvmeCompletionRoutine(pAE, (PVOID)pSrbExtension)
                            && (pSrbExtension->pSrb != NULL);
.......
3.SntiTranslateModeSenseResponse()

.......
case MODE_SENSE_RETURN_ALL:
.......
if (supportsVwc == TRUE) {

                                                          pSrbExt->pNvmeCompletionRoutine = SntiCompletionCallbackRoutine;

                                                          /* Finally, make sure we issue the GET FEATURES command */
                                                          SntiBuildGetFeaturesCmd(pSrbExt, VOLATILE_WRITE_CACHE);

                                                          ioStarted = ProcessIo(pSrbExt->pNvmeDevExt,
                                                                   pSrbExt,
                                                                   NVME_QUEUE_TYPE_ADMIN,
                                                                   TRUE);


4.ProcessIo()
        ........
        if (AcquireLock == TRUE) {
            StorPortAcquireSpinLock(pAdapterExtension,
                                 StartIoLock,
                                 NULL,
                                 &hStartIoLock);  ------------------------> double execute lock and cause (Assertion failure - code c0000420)


        }
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since many users are now using our PS5007 device with 8-core or 12-core PC, they are facing this issue right now. Could you please help to modify driver to solve this problem asap?

Any unclear point, please kindly let us know.
Thank you very much for the help!

Best Regards,
