2007-10-12USB: usb-skeleton leaking locks on openMark Gross
This weekend I was hacking around with a trivial USB driver for talking to the boot load firmware of a USB Bit Whacker. It's running the MicroChip Pic18 boot loader firmware and I'm putting together a flash program for writing new FW to the thing. Anyway in my use of the usb-skeleton.c as my starting point I discovered my test program was getting hung up after attempting to write a buffer. The application and driver where hung in a way that required me to reboot to get it to clean up so I could try again. It turned out the code path through skel_open can grap the driver's io_mutex lock and forget to release it. The following patch fixes the problem for me.

2007-07-12USB: prevent char device open/deregister raceAlan Stern
This patch (as908) adds central protection in usbcore for the prototypical race between opening and unregistering a char device. The spinlock used to protect the minor-numbers array is replaced with an rwsem, which can remain locked across a call to a driver's open() method. This guarantees that open() and deregister() will be mutually exclusive. The private locks currently used in several individual drivers for this purpose are no longer necessary, and the patch removes them. The following USB drivers are affected: usblcd, idmouse, auerswald, legousbtower, sisusbvga/sisusb, ldusb, adutux, iowarrior, and usb-skeleton. As a side effect of this change, usb_deregister_dev() must not be called while holding a lock that is acquired by open(). Unfortunately a number of drivers do this, but luckily the solution is simple: call usb_deregister_dev() before acquiring the lock. In addition to these changes (and their consequent code simplifications), the patch fixes a use-after-free bug in adutux and a race between open() and release() in iowarrior.

2007-04-27USB: fix skeleton driverOliver Neukum
compilation of the skeleton driver is currently broken. It doesn't compile. So while I am it: - fix typo - add comments to answer common questions - actually allow autosuspend in the driver struct - increase paralellism by restricting code under locks Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2007-02-16USB: fix autosuspend race in skeleton driverOliver Neukum
as the skeleton driver was made ready for autosuspend a race condition was introduced. The reference to get device must be gotten before the autosuspend counter is upped, as this operation may sleep, dropping BKL. Dropping BKL means that the pointer to the device may become invalid. Here's the fix. Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-10-05IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

2006-09-27usbcore: non-hub-specific uses of autosuspendAlan Stern
This patch (as741) makes the non-hub parts of usbcore actually use the autosuspend facilities added by an earlier patch. Devices opened through usbfs are autoresumed and then autosuspended upon close. Likewise for usb-skeleton. Devices are autoresumed for usb_set_configuration.

2006-09-27usb-skeleton: don't submit URBs after disconnectionAlan Stern
This patch (as712b) is a slight revision of one submitted earlier. It fixes the usb-skeleton example driver so that it won't try to submit URBs after skel_disconnect() has returned. This could cause errors, if the driver was unbound and then a different driver was bound to the device. It also fixes a couple of small bugs in the skel_write() routine. The revised patch uses a slightly different test, suggested by Dave Brownell, for determining whether to free a transfer buffer. It's a little clearer than the earlier version.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
