My recent patch converting usb-storage to use
usb_reset_composite_device() added a bug, a race between reset and
disconnect. It was necessary to drop the private lock while executing a
reset, and if a disconnect occurs at that time it will cause a crash.
This patch (as722) fixes the problem by explicitly checking for an early
termination after executing each command.

This is a new driver for the Cypress CY7C63xxx mirco controller series.
It currently supports the pre-programmed CYC63001A-PC by AK Modul-Bus
GmbH. It's based on a kernel 2.4 driver (cyport) by Marcus Maul which I
ported to kernel 2.6 using sysfs. I intend to support more controllers
of this family (and more features) as soon as I get hold of the required
IDs etc. Please see the source code's header for more information.

The Susteen Datapilot cable
(http://www.susteen.com/productdetail/71/producthl/Notempty) has an
internal pl2303 to communicate with a set of dummy connector-ends that
connect to a variety of cell phones. I've found that it works right out
of the box by simply adding the product/vendor id to the pl2303 driver.

I received an DBAU1200 eval kit from AMD a few days ago and tried to
enable the USB2 port, but the current linux-2.6 GIT did not even
compile with CONFIG_SOC_1200, CONFIG_SOC_AU1X00, CONFIG_USB_EHCI and
CONFIG_USB_OHCI set.
Furthermore, in ehci-hcd.c, platform_driver_register() was called with
an improper argument of type 'struct device_driver *' which of course
ended up in a kernel oops. How could that ever have worked on your
machines?
Anyway, here's a trivial patch that makes the USB subsystem working
on my board for both OHCI and EHCI.
It also removes the /* FIXME use "struct platform_driver" */.

We all failed to notice that Franck's recent update to usb-storage allowed
an URB to complete after its context data was no longer valid. This patch
(as746) makes the driver wait for the URB to complete whenever there's a
timeout.
Although timeouts in usb-storage are relatively uncommon, they do occur.
Without this patch the code in 2.6.18-rc1 will fault within an interrupt
handler, which is not nice at all.

In usbfs's fs_remove_file() function, the aim is to remove a file or
directory from usbfs. This is done by first taking the i_mutex of the
parent directory of this file/dir via
mutex_lock(&parent->d_inode->i_mutex);
and then to call either usbfs_rmdir() for a directory or usbfs_unlink()
for a file. Both these functions then take the i_mutex for the
to-be-removed object themselves:
mutex_lock(&inode->i_mutex);
This is a classical parent->child locking order relationship that the VFS uses
all over the place; the VFS locking rule is "you need to take the parent
first". This patch annotates the usbfs code to make this explicit and thus
informs the lockdep code that those two locks indeed have this relationship.
The rules for unlink that we already use in the VFS for unlink are to use
I_MUTEX_PARENT for the parent directory, and a normal mutex for the file
itself; this patch follows that convention.
Has no effect on non-lockdep kernels.

Remove TTY_DONT_FLIP tty flag. This flag was introduced in 2.1.X kernels
to prevent the N_TTY line discipline functions read_chan() and
n_tty_receive_buf() from running at the same time. 2.2.15 introduced
tty->read_lock to protect access to the N_TTY read buffer, which is the
only state requiring protection between these two functions.
The current TTY_DONT_FLIP implementation is broken for SMP, and is not
universally honored by drivers that send data directly to the line
discipline receive_buf function.
Because TTY_DONT_FLIP is not necessary, is broken in implementation, and is
not universally honored, it is removed.

Usually we don't care much about 'gcc -W' warnings, but some of us do build
kernels that way to look for problems, and then the fewer warnings we have
to wade through the better. Especially when they are very easy and
non-intrusive to clean up. Which is the case for the following warnings
spewed by drivers/usb/storage/usb.h :
drivers/usb/storage/usb.h:163: warning: `inline' is not at beginning of
+declaration
drivers/usb/storage/usb.h:166: warning: `inline' is not at beginning of
+declaration
There's also some precedence for cleaning up these warnings. I've had
a few patches merged in the past that remove exactly this class of
warnings.

This reverts commit 786dc1d3d7333f269e17d742886eac2188a2d9cc.
As Al so eloquently points out, the patch is crap. The old code was fine,
the new code was bogus.
It never dereferenced a user pointer, the "->" operator was to an array
member, which gives the _address_ of the member (in user space), not an
actual dereference at all.

A process flag to indicate whether we are doing sync io is incredibly
ugly. It also causes performance problems when one does a lot of async
io and then proceeds to sync it. Part of the io will go out as async,
and the other part as sync. This causes a disconnect between the
previously submitted io and the synced io. For io schedulers such as CFQ,
this will cause us lost merges and suboptimal behaviour in scheduling.
Remove PF_SYNCWRITE completely from the fsync/msync paths, and let
the O_DIRECT path just directly indicate that the writes are sync
by using WRITE_SYNC instead.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
superblock pointer.
This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In
such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
and mnt_sb would be set directly.
The patch also makes the following changes:
(*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
very little.
(*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
(*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
dentries being left unculled.
However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
with child trees.
[*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
(*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

Yeah, it's a hack, but it is only temporary until Alan's patches
