USB: fix oops in usb_sg_init()

2010-06-30T15:16:06+00:00

This patch (as1401) fixes a bug in usb_sg_init() that can cause an
invalid pointer dereference.  An inner loop reuses some local variables
in an unsafe manner, so new variables are introduced.

USB: simplify usb_sg_init()

2010-05-20T20:21:42+00:00

This patch (as1377) simplifies the code in usb_sg_init(), without
changing its functionality.  It also removes a couple of unused fields
from the usb_sg_request structure.

USB: Change the scatterlist type in struct urb

2010-05-20T20:21:41+00:00

Change the type of the URB's 'sg' pointer from a usb_sg_request to
a scatterlist.  This allows drivers to submit scatter-gather lists
without using the usb_sg_wait() interface.  It has the added benefit
of removing the typecasts that were added as part of patch as1368 (and
slightly decreasing the number of pointer dereferences).

USB: Add a usb_pipe_endpoint() convenience function

2010-05-20T20:21:41+00:00

Converting a pipe number to a struct usb_host_endpoint pointer is a little
messy.  Introduce a new convenience function to hide the mess.

USB: fix usbmon and DMA mapping for scatter-gather URBs

2010-05-20T20:21:37+00:00

This patch (as1368) fixes a rather obscure bug in usbmon: When tracing
URBs sent by the scatter-gather library, it accesses the data buffers
while they are still mapped for DMA.

The solution is to move the mapping and unmapping out of the s-g
library and into the usual place in hcd.c.  This requires the addition
of new URB flag bits to describe the kind of mapping needed, since we
have to call dma_map_sg() if the HCD supports native scatter-gather
operation and dma_map_page() if it doesn't.  The nice thing about
having the new flags is that they simplify the testing for unmapping.

The patch removes the only caller of usb_buffer_[un]map_sg(), so those
functions are #if'ed out.  A later patch will remove them entirely.

As a result of this change, urb->sg will be set in situations where
it wasn't set previously.  Hence the xhci and whci drivers are
adjusted to test urb->num_sgs instead, which retains its original
meaning and is nonzero only when the HCD has to handle a scatterlist.

Finally, even when a submission error occurs we don't want to hand
URBs to usbmon before they are unmapped.  The submission path is
rearranged so that map_urb_for_dma() is called only for non-root-hub
URBs and unmap_urb_for_dma() is called immediately after a submission
error.  This simplifies the error handling.

USB: make hcd.h public (drivers dependency)

2010-05-20T20:21:30+00:00

The usbcore headers: hcd.h and hub.h are shared between usbcore,
HCDs and a couple of other drivers (e.g. USBIP modules).
So, it makes sense to move them into a more public location and
to cleanup dependency of those modules on kernel internal headers.
This patch moves hcd.h from drivers/usb/core into include/linux/usb/

USB: don't read past config->interface[] if usb_control_msg() fails in usb_reset_configuration()

2010-03-02T22:55:10+00:00

While looping over the interfaces, if usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth() fails it calls
hcd->driver->reset_bandwidth(), so there was no need to reinstate the interface
again.

If no break occurred, the index equals config->desc.bNumInterfaces. A
subsequent usb_control_msg() failure resulted in a read from
config->interface[config->desc.bNumInterfaces] at label reset_old_alts.

In either case the last interface should be skipped.

USB: convert to the runtime PM framework

2010-03-02T22:54:12+00:00

This patch (as1329) converts the USB stack over to the PM core's
runtime PM framework.  This involves numerous changes throughout
usbcore, especially to hub.c and driver.c.  Perhaps the most notable
change is that CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND now depends on CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME
instead of CONFIG_PM.

Several fields in the usb_device and usb_interface structures are no
longer needed.  Some code which used to depend on CONFIG_USB_PM now
depends on CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND (requiring some rearrangement of header
files).

The only visible change in behavior should be that following a system
sleep (resume from RAM or resume from hibernation), autosuspended USB
devices will be resumed just like everything else.  They won't remain
suspended.  But if they aren't in use then they will naturally
autosuspend again in a few seconds.

PM: Allow USB devices to suspend/resume asynchronously

2010-02-26T19:39:12+00:00

Set power.async_suspend for USB devices, endpoints and interfaces,
allowing them to be suspended and resumed asynchronously during
system sleep transitions.

The power.async_suspend flag is also set for devices that don't have
suspend or resume callbacks, because otherwise they would make the
main suspend/resume thread wait for their "asynchronous" children
(during suspend) or parents (during resume), effectively negating the
possible gains from executing these devices' suspend and resume
callbacks asynchronously.
