      USB: core: message: clean up urb->status usage · 3fc3e826
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      This done in anticipation of removal of urb->status, which will make
      that patch easier to review and apply in the future.

      USB: documentation update for usb_unlink_urb · beafef07
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as936) updates the kerneldoc for usb_unlink_urb.  The
      explanation of how endpoint queues are meant to work is now clearer
      and in better agreement with reality.

      USB: fix warning caused by autosuspend counter going negative · 195af2cc
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as937) fixes a minor bug in the autosuspend usage-counting
      code.  Each hub's usage counter keeps track of the number of
      unsuspended children.  However the current driver increments the
      counter after registering a new child, by which time the child may
      already have been suspended and caused the counter to go negative.
      The obvious solution is to increment the counter before registering
      the child.

      USB: add "descriptors" binary sysfs attribute · 69d42a78
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as934) adds a new readonly binary sysfs attribute file
      called "descriptors" for each USB device.  The attribute contains the
      device descriptor followed by the raw descriptor entry (config plug
      subsidiary descriptors) for the current configuration.
      
      Having this information available in fixed-format binary makes life a
      lot easier for user programs by avoiding the need to open, read, and
      parse multiple sysfs text files.
      
      The information in this attribute file is much like that in usbfs's
      device file, but there are some significant differences:
      
      	The 2-byte fields in the device descriptor are left in
      	little-endian byte order, as they appear on the bus and
      	in the kernel.
      
      	Only one raw descriptor set is presented, that of the
      	current configuration.
      
      	Opening this file will not cause a suspended device to be
      	autoresumed.
      
      The last item in particular should be a big selling point for libusb,
      which currently forces all USB devices to be resumed as it scans the
      device tree.

      dev_vdbg(), available with -DVERBOSE_DEBUG · aebdc3b4
      David Brownell 提交于
      This defines a dev_vdbg() call, which is enabled with -DVERBOSE_DEBUG.
      When enabled, dev_vdbg() acts just like dev_dbg().  When disabled, it is a
      NOP ...  just like dev_dbg() without -DDEBUG.  The specific code was moved
      out of a USB patch, but lots of drivers have similar support.
      
      That is, code can now be written to use an additional level of debug
      output, selected at compile time.  Many driver authors have found this
      idiom to be very useful.  A typical usage model is for "normal" debug
      messages to focus on fault paths and not be very "chatty", so that those
      messages can be left on during normal operation without much of a
      performance or syslog load.  On the other hand "verbose" messages would be
      noisy enough that they wouldn't normally be enabled; they might even affect
      timings enough to change system or driver behavior.

      Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by default · 83144186
      Rafael J. Wysocki 提交于
      Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
      threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves.  This
      approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
      set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
      care for the freezing of tasks at all.
      
      It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
      be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
      freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
      done in this patch.
      
      The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie.  to
      have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
      function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
      unset PF_NOFREEZE.  It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
      threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
      change of behaviour to appear.  Additionally, it updates documentation to
      describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.
