2005-06-27[PATCH] USB: Kconfig fixes for usb/gadgetDavid Brownell
This prevents gadget drivers from being selected when no controller has been selected, by adding an additional boolean and depending on it. It's mostly to help "allmodconfig". Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB dummy_hcd: Use root-hub interrupts instead of pollingAlan Stern
This patch makes the dummy_hcd driver use emulated root-hub interrupts instead of polling. It's in the spirit of similar changes being made to the other HCDs. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-06-27[PATCH] USB dummy_hcd: Centralize link state computationsAlan Stern
This patch adds to the dummy_hcd driver a new routine for keeping track of all changes in the state of the emulated USB link. The logic is now kept in one spot instead of spread around, and it's easier to verify and update the code. The behavior of the port features has been corrected in a few respects as well (for instance, if the POWER feature is clear then none of the other features can be set). Also added is support for the (relatively new) _connect() and _disconnect() calls of the Gadget API.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB dummy_hcd: Use separate pdevs for HC and UDCAlan Stern
This patch makes the dummy_hcd driver create separate platform devices for the emulated host controller and emulated device controller. This gives a more accurate simulation and will permit testing of situations where only one of the two devices is suspended. This also changes the name of the host controller platform device to match the name of the driver. That way the normal platform bus probe mechanism will handle binding the driver to the device.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB: dummy_hcd: USB_PORT_FEAT changed to USB_PORT_STATAlan Stern
This patch makes some cosmetic changes to dummy_hcd: Minor alterations of comments and whitespace. Replace USB_PORT_FEAT_xxx with USB_PORT_STAT_xxx. This is appropriate as the values are stored in a status variable and they aren't feature indices. Also it allows the elimination of a bunch of awkward bit shift operations.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB dummy_hcd: Partial OTG emulationAlan Stern
Partial OTG support for dummy_hcd, mostly as a framework for further work. It emulates the new OTG flags in the host and peripheral frameworks, if that option is configured. But it's incomplete: - Resetting the peripheral needs to clear the OTG state bits; a second enumeration won't work correctly. - This stops modeling HNP right when roles should switch the first time. It should probably disconnect, then set the usb_bus.is_b_host and usb_gadget.is_a_peripheral flags; then it'd enumerate almost normally, except for the role reversal. Roles could then switch a second time, back to "normal" (with those flags cleared). - SRP should be modeled as "resume from port-unpowered", which is a state that usbcore doesn't yet use. HNP can be triggered by enabling the OTG whitelist and configuring a gadget driver that's not in that list; or by configuring Gadget Zero to identify itself as the HNP test device.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB: more omap_udc updates (dma and omap1710)David Brownell
More omap_udc updates: * OMAP 1710 updates - new UDC bit for clearing endpoint toggle, affecting CLEAR_HALT - new OTG bits affecting wakeup * Fix the bug Vladimir noted, that IN-DMA transfer code path kicks in for under 1024 bytes (not "up to 1024 bytes") * Handle transceiver setup more intelligently - use transceiver whenever one's available; this can be handy for GPIO based, loopback, or transceiverless configs - cleanup correctly after the "unrecognized HMC" case * DMA performance tweaks - allow burst/pack for memory access - use 16 bit DMA access most of the time on TIPB * Add workarounds for some DMA errata (not observed "in the wild"): - DMA CSAC/CDAC reads returning zero - RX/TX DMA config registers bit 12 always reads as zero (TI patch) * More "sparse" warnings removed, notably "changing" the SETUP packet to return data in USB byteorder (an API change, null effect on OMAP except for these warnings).

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB: ethernet gadget updates (mostly cleanup)David Brownell
Some cleanup for the the Ethernet part of the Ethernet/RNDIS gadget driver: - Remove remnants of ancient endpoint init logic; this is simpler, clearer - Save a smidgeon of space in the object file - Get rid of some #ifdeffery, mostly by using some newish inlines - Reset more driver state as part of USB reset - Remove a needless wrapper around an RNDIS call - Improve and comment the status interrupt handling: * RNDIS sometimes needs to queue these transfers (rarely in normal cases, but reproducibly while Windows was deadlocking its USB stack) * Mark requests as busy/not - Enable the SET_NETDEV_DEV() call; sysfs seems to behave sanely now This is a net shrink of source code.

Some bugfixes and lots of cleanup (net code shrink): - On reset, force the RNDIS state machine its initial state - Hook up the RNDIS (outgoing) filters to the CDC mechanism - Lots of cleanup: * Eliminate duplicate copy of OID table; * Unify handlying of the OID "query" response data pointer; * Reduce code duplication for calculating query response lengths; * Remove some checks for "can't happen" errors; * Get rid of debugging #ifdefs by making the debug flag an integer level Most of the patch, by volume, relates to those query response cleanups.

2005-06-27[PATCH] UHCI: Don't store device pointer in QH or TDAlan Stern
This patch simplifies the uhci-hcd driver by removing the device pointer currently stored in the QH and TD structures. Those pointers weren't being used for anything other than to increment the device's reference count, which is unnecessary since the device is used only when an URB completes, and outstanding URBs take their own reference to the device. As a useful side effect, this change means that uhci-hcd no longer needs to have the root-hub device available in the start routine.

2005-06-27[PATCH] usbcore: Remove hub_set_power_budgetAlan Stern
This patch removes the hub_set_power_budget routine, which was used by a couple of HCDs to indicate that the root hub was running on battery power. In its place is a new field added to struct usb_hcd, which HCDs can set before the root hub is registered. Special-case code in the hub driver knows to look at this field when configuring a root hub.

2005-06-27[PATCH] usbcore support for root-hub IRQ instead of pollingAlan Stern
This is a revised version of an earlier patch to add support to usbcore for driving root hubs by interrupts rather than polling. There's a temporary flag added to struct usb_hcd, marking devices whose drivers are aware of the new mechanism. By default that flag doesn't get set so drivers will continue to see the same polling behavior as before. This way we can convert the HCDs one by one to use interrupt-based event reporting, and the temporary flag can be removed when they're all done. Also included is a small change to the hcd_disable_endpoint routine. Although endpoints normally shouldn't be disabled while a controller is suspended, it's legal to do so when the controller's driver is being rmmod'ed. Lastly the patch adds a new callback, .hub_irq_enable, for use by HCDs where the root hub's port-change interrupts are level-triggered rather than edge-triggered. The callback is invoked each time khubd has finished processing a root hub, to let the HCD know that the interrupt can safely be re-enabled.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB UHCI: Add shutdown methodAlan Stern
After all the discussion you might not be interested in this still, but nevertheless here it is. This patch adds a shutdown method to the uhci-hcd driver.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB UHCI: improved reset handlingAlan Stern
This patch improves the strategy uhci-hcd uses for performing controller resets and checking whether they are needed. The HCRESET command doesn't affect the Suspend, Resume, or Reset bits in the port status & control registers, so the driver must clear them by itself. This means the code to figure out how many ports there are has to be moved to an earlier spot in the driver. The R/WC bits in the USBLEGSUP register can be set by the hardware even in the absence of BIOS meddling with legacy support features. Hence it's not a good idea to check them while trying to determine whether the BIOS has altered the controller's state.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB UHCI: Use root-hub IRQs while suspendedAlan Stern
This patch, which has as478b as a prerequisite, enables the uhci-hcd driver to take advantage of root-hub IRQs rather than polling during the time it is suspended. (Unfortunately the hardware doesn't support port-change interrupts while the controller is running.) It also turns off the driver's private timer while the controller is suspended, as it isn't needed then. The combined elimination of polling interrupts and timer interrupts ought to be enough to allow some systems to save a noticeable amount of power while they are otherwise idle.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB UHCI: Fix up loose endsAlan Stern
This patch tidies up a few loose ends left by the preceding patches. It indicates the controller supports remote wakeup whenever the PM capability is present -- which shouldn't cause any harm if the assumption turns out to be wrong. It refuses to suspend the controller if the root hub is still active, and it refuses to resume the root hub if the controller is suspended. It adds checks for a dead controller in several spots, and it adds memory barriers as needed to insure that I/O operations are completed before moving on. Actually I'm not certain the last part is being done correctly. With code like this: outw(..., ...); mb(); udelay(5); do we know for certain that the outw() will complete _before_ the delay begins? If not, how should this be written? Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2005-06-27[PATCH] USB UHCI: Add root-hub suspend/resume supportAlan Stern
This patch implements (finally!) separate suspend and resume routines for the root hub and the controller in the UHCI driver. It also changes the sequence used to reset the controller during initial probing, so as to preserve the existing state during a Resume-From-Disk. (This new sequence is what should be used in the PCI Quirks code for early USB handoffs, incidentally.) Lastly it adds a notion of the controller being "inaccessible" while in a PCI low-power state, when normal I/O operations shouldn't be allowed.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB UHCI: Add root hub statesAlan Stern
This patch starts making some serious changes to the UHCI driver. There's a set of private states for the root hub, and the internal routines for suspending and resuming work completely differently, with transitions based on the new states. Now the driver distinguishes between a privately auto-stopped state and a publicly suspended state, and it will properly suspend controllers with broken resume-detect interrupts instead of resetting them.

2005-06-27[PATCH] USB: turn a user mode driver error into a hard errorDavid Brownell
This patch turns a user mode driver error into a hard error, and updates the relevant diagnostic slightly to help troubleshooting. gphoto was known to have this problem, hopefully it is now fixed (they have had plenty of warning...) This had been left as a soft error to give various user mode drivers a change to be properly fixed, with the statement that starting in about 2.6.10 it would be changed. It had been mostly safe as a soft error ... but that can not be guaranteed. Now that a year has passed, it's time to really insist that the user mode drivers finally fix their relevant bugs.

This patch fixes an oops triggered at rmmod of isp116x-hcd after the probe() has failed. Also, it extends the error message printed, if the driver cannot detect "Chip's Clock Ready" after a software reset. As Ian Campbell recently reported, this happens if the chip's H_WAKEUP pin is not pulled low during software reset. Several people have already had this issue, hence the update to the error message. Also, extend the error message about the failed clock detection after the software reset. Signed-off-by: Olav Kongas <ok@artecdesign.ee>

Various USB patches, mostly for portability: - Fifo mode 1 didn't work previously (oopsed), so now it's fixed and (why not) defines even more endpoints for composite devices. - OMAP 1710 doesn't have an internal transceiver. - Small PM update: if the USB link is suspended, don't disconnect on entry to deep sleep. - Be more correct about handling zero length control reads. OMAP seems to mis-handle that protocol peculiarity though; best avoided. - Platform device resources (for UDC and OTG controllers) now use physical addresses, so /proc/iomem is more consistent. - Minor cleanups, notably (by volume) for "sparse" NULL warnings.

2005-06-26[NETLINK]: Fix two socket hashing bugs.David S. Miller
1) netlink_release() should only decrement the hash entry count if the socket was actually hashed. This was causing hash->entries to underflow, which resulting in all kinds of troubles. On 64-bit systems, this would cause the following conditional to erroneously trigger: err = -ENOMEM; if (BITS_PER_LONG > 32 && unlikely(hash->entries >= UINT_MAX)) goto err; 2) netlink_autobind() needs to propagate the error return from netlink_insert(). Otherwise, callers will not see the error as they should and thus try to operate on a socket with a zero pid, which is very bad. However, it should not propagate -EBUSY. If two threads race to autobind the socket, that is fine. This is consistent with the autobind behavior in other protocols. So bug #1 above, combined with this one, resulted in hangs on netlink_sendmsg() calls to the rtnetlink socket. We'd try to do the user sendmsg() with the socket's pid set to zero, later we do a socket lookup using that pid (via the value we stashed away in NETLINK_CB(skb).pid), but that won't give us the user socket, it will give us the rtnetlink socket. So when we try to wake up the receive queue, we dive back into rtnetlink_rcv() which tries to recursively take the rtnetlink semaphore. Thanks to Jakub Jelink for providing backtraces. Also, thanks to Herbert Xu for supplying debugging patches to help track this down, and also finding a mistake in an earlier version of this fix. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
