This fixes a problem with some cdc acm devices that were not getting
automatically loaded as the module alias was not being reported
properly.
This check was for back in the days when we only reported hotplug events
for the main usb device, not the interfaces. We should always give the
interface information for MODALIAS/modalias as it can be needed.

Dell supplied me with the following test:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<errno.h>
#include<sys/ioctl.h>
#include<fcntl.h>
#include<linux/usbdevice_fs.h>
main(int argc,char*argv[])
{
struct usbdevfs_hub_portinfo hubPortInfo = {0};
struct usbdevfs_ioctl command = {0};
command.ifno = 0;
command.ioctl_code = USBDEVFS_HUB_PORTINFO;
command.data = (void*)&hubPortInfo;
int fd, ret;
if(argc != 2) {
fprintf(stderr,"Usage: %s /proc/bus/usb/<BusNo>/<HubID>\n",argv[0]);
fprintf(stderr,"Example: %s /proc/bus/usb/001/001\n",argv[0]);
exit(1);
}
errno = 0;
fd = open(argv[1],O_RDWR);
if(fd < 0) {
perror("open failed:");
exit(errno);
}
errno = 0;
ret = ioctl(fd,USBDEVFS_IOCTL,&command);
printf("IOCTL return status:%d\n",ret);
if(ret<0) {
perror("IOCTL failed:");
close(fd);
exit(3);
} else {
printf("IOCTL passed:Num of ports %d\n",hubPortInfo.nports);
close(fd);
exit(0);
}
return 0;
}
I have verified that it breaks if built in 32 bit mode on x86_64 and that

This patch (as580) is perhaps the only result from the long discussion I
had with David about his changes to the root-hub suspend/resume code. It
renames the hub_suspend and hub_resume methods in struct usb_hcd to
bus_suspend and bus_resume. These are more descriptive names, since the
methods really do suspend or resume an entire USB bus, and less likely to
be confused with the hub_suspend and hub_resume routines in hub.c.
It also takes David's advice about removing the layer of bus glue, where
those methods are called. And it implements a related change that David
made to the other HCDs but forgot to put into dummy_hcd.

Because there is no bulk_interrupt_message() routine and no
USBDEVFS_INTERRUPT ioctl, people have been forced to abuse the
usb_bulk_message() routine and USBDEVFS_BULK by using them for interrupt
transfers as well as bulk transfers.
This patch (as567) formalizes this practice and adds code to
usb_bulk_message() for detecting when the target is really an interrupt
endpoint. If it is, the routine submits an interrupt URB (using the
default interval) instead of a bulk URB. In theory this should help HCDs
that don't like it when people try to mix transfer types, queuing both
periodic and non-periodic types for the same endpoint.
Not fully tested -- I don't have any programs that use USBDEVFS_BULK for
interrupt transfers -- but it compiles okay and normal bulk messages work
as well as before.

Reject URBs to _all_ devices when their host controllers are suspended;

This updates the PCI glue to address the new and simplified usbcore suspend
semantics, where CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND becomes irrelevant to HCDs because
hcd->hub_suspend() will always be called.
- Removes now-unneeded recursion support
- Go back to ignoring faults reported by the wakeup calls; we expect them
to fail sometimes, and that's just fine.
The PCI HCDs will need simple changes to catch up to this, like being able
to ignore the setting of CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND.

This patch associates hub suspend and resume logic (including for root hubs)
with CONFIG_PM -- instead of CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND as before -- thereby unifying
two troublesome versions of suspend logic into just one. It'll be easier to
keep things right from now on.
- Now usbcore _always_ calls hcd->hub_suspend as needed, instead of
only when USB_SUSPEND is enabled:
* Those root hub methods are now called from hub suspend/resume;
no more skipping between layers during device suspend/resume;
* It now handles cases allowed by sysfs or autosuspended root hubs,
by forcing the hub interface to resume too.
- All devices, including virtual root hubs, now get the same treatment
on their resume paths ... including re-activating all their interfaces.
Plus it gets rid of those stub copies of usb_{suspend,resume}_device(), and
updates the Kconfig to match the new definition of USB_SUSPEND: it provides
(a) selective suspend, downstream from hubs; and (b) remote wakeup, upstream
from any device configuration which supports it.
This calls for minor followup patches for most HCDs (and their PCI glue).

This patch collects various small updates related to root hubs, to shrink
later patches which build on them.
- For root hub suspend/resume support:
* Make the existing usb_hcd_resume_root_hub() routine respect pmcore
locking, exporting and using the dpm_runtime_resume() method.
* Add a new usb_hcd_suspend_root_hub() to pair with that routine.
(Essential to make OHCI autosuspend behave again...)
* HC_SUSPENDED by itself only refers to the root hub's downstream ports.
So let HCDs see root hub URBs unless the parent device is suspended.
- Remove an assertion we no longer need (and now, also don't want).
- Generic suspend/resume updates to work better with swsusp.
* Ignore the FREEZE vs SUSPEND distinction for hardware; trying to
use it breaks the swsusp snapshots it's supposed to help (sigh).
* On resume, mark devices as resumed right away, but then
do nothing else if the device is marked NOTATTACHED.
These changes shouldn't be very noticable by themselves.

This cleans up a small recent FIXME, ensuring that all the HCDs provide
root hub suspend/resume methods. It also wraps the calls to those root
suspend routines just like on the PCI "USB_SUSPEND not defined" cases,
so non-PCI bus glue won't be as tempted to behave very differently.
Several of the SOC based OHCI drivers forgot to list those methods;
the patch also adds those missing declarations.

This patch removes the extra usb_suspend_device() parameter. The original
reason to pass that parameter was so that this routine could suspend any
active children. A previous patch removed that functionality ... leaving
no reason to pass the parameter. A close analogy is pci_set_power_state,
which doesn't need a pm_message_t either.
On the internal code path that comes through the driver model, the parameter
is now used to distinguish cases where USB devices need to "freeze" but not
suspend. It also checks for an error case that's accessible through sysfs:
attempting to suspend a device before its interfaces (or for hubs, ports).

This patch removes some recursion in the CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND logic, which
suspended children (of devices or hubs) that weren't already suspended.
When it sees such cases, suspend now just fails cleanly.
That logic was not needed during system-wide sleep state transitions; and
given the current notions of how to manage selective suspend transitions,
we don't want it there either. Where it was particularly handy was coping
with various limitations of the sysfs "echo -n N > power/state" support.
(These include assuming that "N" is always meaningful to the driver; and
that drivers can only transition to state N from state zero.)

This updates the handling of power state for USB interfaces.
- Formalizes an existing invariant: interface "power state" is a boolean:
ON when I/O is allowed, and FREEZE otherwise. It does so by defining
some inlined helpers, then using them.
- Adds a useful invariant: the only interfaces marked active are those
bound to non-suspended drivers. Later patches build on this invariant.
- Simplifies the interface driver API (and removes some error paths) by
removing the requirement that they record power state changes during
suspend and resume callbacks. Now usbcore does that.
A few drivers were simplified to address that last change.

This patch teaches "usb_device" about the new driver model wakeup support:
- It updates device wakeup capabilities when entering a configuration
with the WAKEUP attribute;
- During suspend processing it consults the policy bit to see
whether it should enable wakeup for that device. (This resolves
a FIXME to not assume the answer is always "yes"; some devices
lie about supporting remote wakeup.)
Support for root hubs and the HCDs is separate (and more complex).

Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

If a process issues an URB from userspace and (starts to) terminate
before the URB comes back, we run into the issue described above. This
is because the urb saves a pointer to "current" when it is posted to the
device, but there's no guarantee that this pointer is still valid
afterwards.
In fact, there are three separate issues:
1) the pointer to "current" can become invalid, since the task could be
completely gone when the URB completion comes back from the device.
2) Even if the saved task pointer is still pointing to a valid task_struct,
task_struct->sighand could have gone meanwhile.
3) Even if the process is perfectly fine, permissions may have changed,
and we can no longer send it a signal.
So what we do instead, is to save the PID and uid's of the process, and
introduce a new kill_proc_info_as_uid() function.

This patch (as556) adds support for unbinding the usb_generic "driver".
That driver only binds to USB devices, as opposed to interfaces, and it
does nothing much besides marking which struct device's go with an
overall USB device plus providing suspend/resume methods. Now that
users can unbind drivers at will using the sysfs "unbind" attribute, we
need a rational way of dealing with USB devices that are no longer under
full control of the USB stack. The patch handles this by unconfiguring
the device, thereby removing all the interfaces and their associated

29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."
Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."
Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

This makes libusb pick up the real nodes instead of the mounted usbfs:

Background:
All this makes it possible to manage usb devices with udev instead of
the devfs solution. We are currently working on a pam_console/resmgr

up the udev managed nodes instead of reading usbfs files.
