Commit 0ede76fc, "USB: remove uses of URB_NO_SETUP_DMA_MAP" introduced a regression by inadvertantly removing initialization of the transfer flags. This caused initialization failures in the ums-karma driver. Fix the regression by zeroing it. While at it, as Alan Stern points out, the initializers for actual_length and status are handled by the core and error_count only matters for isochronous urbs, so they don't need to be set here. Remove them. Signed-off-by: NBob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Acked-by: NAlan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This patch (as1350) removes all usages of coherent buffers for USB control-request setup-packet buffers. There's no good reason to reserve coherent memory for these things; control requests are hardly ever used in large quantity (the major exception is firmware transfers, and they aren't time-critical). Furthermore, only seven drivers used it. We might as well always use streaming DMA mappings for setup-packet buffers, and remove some extra complexity from usbcore. The DMA-mapping portion of hcd.c is currently in flux. A separate patch will be submitted to remove support for URB_NO_SETUP_DMA_MAP after everything else settles down. The removal should go smoothly, as by then nobody will be using it. Signed-off-by: NAlan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

This patch (as1311) fixes a problem in usb-storage: Some devices are pretty broken when it comes to reporting sense data. The information they send back indicates that they have more than 18 bytes of sense data available, but when the system asks for more than 18 they fail or hang. The symptom is that probing fails with multiple resets. The patch adds a new BAD_SENSE flag to indicate that usb-storage should never ask for more than 18 bytes of sense data. The flag can be set in an unusual_devs entry or via the "quirks=" module parameter, and it is set automatically whenever a REQUEST SENSE command for more than 18 bytes fails or times out. An unusual_devs entry is added for the Agfa photo frame, which uses a Prolific chip having this bug.

usb-storage: Workaround devices with bogus sense size Some devices, such as Huawei E169, advertise more than the standard amount of sense data, causing us to set US_FL_SANE_SENSE, assuming they support it. However, they subsequently fail the request sense with that size. This works around it generically. When a sense request fails due to a device returning an error, US_FL_SANE_SENSE was set, and that sense request used a larger sense size, we retry with a smaller size before giving up.

This patch (as1294) fixes a problem that has plagued users for several kernel releases. Some USB mass-storage devices don't return any sense data when they encounter certain kinds of errors. The SCSI layer interprets this to mean that the operation should be retried, and the same thing happens -- over and over again with no limit. In some circumstances (such as when a bus reset occurs) that is the right thing to do, but not here. The patch checks for this condition (a transport failure with no sense data) and changes the result code to DID_ERROR and the sense code to Hardware Error. This does get only a limited number of retries, and so the command will fail relatively quickly instead of getting stuck in an infinite loop. This fixes a large part of Bugzilla #14118.

Requests to get max LUN, for certain USB storage devices, require a longer timeout before a correct reply is returned. This happens for a Realtek USB Card Reader (0bda:0152), which has a max LUN of 3 but is set to 0, thus losing functionality, because of the timeout occurring too quickly. Raising the timeout value fixes the issue and might help other devices to return a correct max LUN value as well.

Wireless USB endpoint state has a sequence number and a current window and not just a single toggle bit. So allow HCDs to provide a endpoint_reset method and call this or clear the software toggles as required (after a clear halt, set configuration etc.). usb_settoggle() and friends are then HCD internal and are moved into core/hcd.h and all device drivers call usb_reset_endpoint() instead. If the device endpoint state has been reset (with a clear halt) but the host endpoint state has not then subsequent data transfers will not complete. The device will only work again after it is reset or disconnected. Signed-off-by: NDavid Vrabel <david.vrabel@csr.com> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This patch (as1206) is the first step in converting usb-storage's subdrivers into separate modules. It makes the following large-scale changes: Remove a bunch of unnecessary #ifdef's from usb_usual.h. Not truly necessary, but it does clean things up. Move the USB device-ID table (which is duplicated between libusual and usb-storage) into its own source file, usual-tables.c, and arrange for this to be linked with either libusual or usb-storage according to whether USB_LIBUSUAL is configured. Add to usual-tables.c a new usb_usual_ignore_device() function to detect whether a particular device needs to be managed by a subdriver and not by the standard handlers in usb-storage. Export a whole bunch of functions in usb-storage, renaming some of them because their names don't already begin with "usb_stor_". These functions will be needed by the new subdriver modules. Split usb-storage's probe routine into two functions. The subdrivers will call the probe1 routine, then fill in their transport and protocol settings, and then call the probe2 routine. Take the default cases and error checking out of get_transport() and get_protocol(), which run during probe1, and instead put a check for invalid transport or protocol values into the probe2 function. Add a new probe routine to be used for standard devices, i.e., those that don't need a subdriver. This new routine checks whether the device should be ignored (because it should be handled by ub or by a subdriver), and if not, calls the probe1 and probe2 functions.

This patch (as1189b) adds some hacks to usb-storage for dealing with the growing problems involving bad capacity values and last-sector accesses: A new flag, US_FL_CAPACITY_OK, is created to indicate that the device is known to report its capacity correctly. An unusual_devs entry for Linux's own File-backed Storage Gadget is added with this flag set, since g_file_storage always reports the correct capacity and since the capacity need not be even (it is determined by the size of the backing file). An entry in unusual_devs.h which has only the CAPACITY_OK flag set shouldn't prejudice libusual, since the device will work perfectly well with either usb-storage or ub. So a new macro, COMPLIANT_DEV, is added to let libusual know about these entries. When a last-sector access succeeds and the total number of sectors is odd (the unexpected case, in which guessing that the number is even might cause trouble), a WARN is triggered. The kerneloops.org project will collect these warnings, allowing us to add CAPACITY_OK flags for the devices in question before implementing the default-to-even heuristic. If users want to prevent the stack dump produced by the WARN, they can disable the hack by adding an unusual_devs entry for their device with the CAPACITY_OK flag. When a last-sector access fails three times in a row and neither the FIX_CAPACITY nor the CAPACITY_OK flag is set, we assume the last-sector bug is present. We replace the existing status and sense data with values that will cause the SCSI core to fail the access immediately rather than retry indefinitely. This should fix the difficulties people have been having with Nokia phones.

This patch (as1161) changes the interface to usb_lock_device_for_reset(). The existing interface is apparently not very clear, judging from the fact that several of its callers don't use it correctly. The new interface always returns 0 for success and it always requires the caller to unlock the device afterward. The new routine will not return immediately if it is called while the driver's probe method is running. Instead it will wait until the probe is over and the device has been unlocked. This shouldn't cause any problems; I don't know of any cases where drivers call usb_lock_device_for_reset() during probe.

This patch (as1118) addresses a problem with certain USB mass-storage devices. These devices sometimes return less data than asked for and then provide no sense data to explain the problem. Currently usb-storage leaves it up to the SCSI layer to decide how this should be handled, and the SCSI layer interprets the lack of sense data to mean that nothing went wrong. But if we got less data than required then something definitely _did_ go wrong, and we should say so. The patch tells the SCSI layer to retry the command when this sort of thing happens. Retrying may not solve the underlying problem, but it's better than believing that data was transferred when it wasn't.

This patch (as1119) will help to reduce the clutter of usb-storage's unusual_devs file by automatically detecting some devices that need the IGNORE_RESIDUE flag. The idea is that devices should never return a non-zero residue for an INQUIRY or a READ CAPACITY command unless they failed to transfer all the requested data. So if one of these commands transfers a standard amount of data but there is a positive residue, we know that the residue is bogus and we can set the flag.

This patch renames the existing usb_reset_device in hub.c to usb_reset_and_verify_device and renames the existing usb_reset_composite_device to usb_reset_device. Also the new usb_reset_and_verify_device does't need to be EXPORTED . The idea of the patch is that external interface driver should warn the other interfaces' driver of the same device before and after reseting the usb device. One interface driver shoud call _old_ usb_reset_composite_device instead of _old_ usb_reset_device since it can't assume the device contains only one interface. The _old_ usb_reset_composite_device is safe for single interface device also. we rename the two functions to make the change easily. This patch is under guideline from Alan Stern.

This patch (as1092) implements "soft" unbinding for usb-storage. When the disconnect routine is called, all commands and reset delays are allowed to complete normally until after scsi_remove_host() returns. This means that the commands needed for an orderly shutdown will be sent through to the device. Unlike before, the driver will now execute every command that it accepts. Hence there's no need for special code to catch unexecuted commands and fail them. The new sequence of events when disconnect runs goes as follows: If the device is truly unplugged, set the DISCONNECTING flag so we won't try to access it any more. If the SCSI-scanning thread hasn't started up yet, prevent it from doing anything by setting the new DONT_SCAN flag. Then wake it up and wait for it to terminate. Remove the SCSI host. This unbinds the upper-level drivers, doing an orderly shutdown. Commands sent to quiesce the device will be transmitted normally, unless the device is unplugged. Set the DISCONNECTING flag so that we won't accept any new commands that might get submitted (there aren't supposed to be any) and we won't try to access the device for resets. Tell the control thread to exit by waking it up with no pending command, and wait for it to terminate. Go on to do all the other normal stuff: releasing resources, freeing memory, and so on.

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.

The purpose of this patch is to split off the case when a device does not reply on the lower level (which is reported by HC hardware), and a case when the device accepted the request, but does not reply at upper level. This redefinition allows to diagnose issues easier, without asking the user if the -110 happened "immediately". The usbmon splits such cases already thanks to its timestamp, but it's not always available. I adjusted all drivers which I found affected (by searching for "urb"). Out of tree drivers may suffer a little bit, but I do not expect much breakage. At worst they may print a few messages.

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.

This patch (as701) modifies usb-storage to take advantage of the new usb_reset_composite_device() API. Now we will be able to safely request port resets even if other drivers are bound to a mass-storage device.

This patch uses completion timeout instead of a timer to implement a timeout when submitting an URB. It also put the task in interruptible state instead of an uninterruptible one while waiting for the completion.

This patch is from Alan Stern (as560). It has been rediffed against a current tree. This patch allocates a separate buffer for usb-storage to use when auto-sensing. Up to now we have been using the sense buffer embedded in a scsi_cmnd struct, which is dangerous on hosts that (a) don't do cache-coherent DMA or (b) have DMA alignment restrictions.

This patch is originally from Alan Stern (as557). It has been re-diffed against a current tree, and I also corrected a minor merging error. Some time ago we introduced a delay before device scanning, because many devices do not like to receive SCSI commands right after enumeration. Now it turns out there's a device that doesn't like to receive Get-Max-LUN right after enumeration either. Accordingly this patch delays the Get-Max-LUN request until the beginning of the scanning procedure. This fixes Bugzilla entry #5010. Three things are worth noting. First, I removed the locking code from usb_stor_acquire_resources. It's not needed, because the locking is to protect against disconnect events and acquire_resources is only called during probe (so the disconnect routine can't be called). Second, I initialized to 0 the buffer used for the Get-Max-LUN response. It's not really necessary, but it will prevent random values from showing up in the debugging log when the request fails. Third, I added a test against the SINGLE_LUN flag. This will allow us to use the flag to indicate Bulk-only devices that can't handle Get-Max-LUN.

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."
