transfer_buffer_length and actual_length have become unsigned, therefore some
additional conversion of local variables, function arguments and print
specifications is desired.
A test for a negative urb->transfer_buffer_length became obsolete; instead
we ensure that it does not exceed INT_MAX. Also, urb->actual_length is always
less than urb->transfer_buffer_length.
rh_string() does no longer return -EPIPE in the case of an unsupported ID.
Instead its only caller, rh_call_control() does the check.

The usbfs driver manages a list of completed asynchronous URBs. But
it is too eager to free the entries on this list: destroy_async() gets
called whenever an interface is unbound or a device is removed, and it
deallocates the outstanding struct async entries for all URBs on that
interface or device. This is wrong; the user program should be able
to reap an URB any time after it has completed, regardless of whether
or not the interface is still bound or the device is still present.
This patch (as1222) moves the code for deallocating the completed list
entries from destroy_async() to usbdev_release(). The outstanding
entries won't be freed until the user program has closed the device
file, thereby eliminating any possibility that the remaining URBs
might still be reaped.
This fixes a bug in which a program can hang in the USBDEVFS_REAPURB
ioctl when the device is unplugged.

This patch (as1198) fixes a conceptual bug: Somewhere along the line
we managed to confuse USB class devices with USB char devices. As a
result, the code to send a disconnect signal to userspace would not be
built if both CONFIG_USB_DEVICE_CLASS and CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS were
disabled.
The usb_fs_classdev_common_remove() routine has been renamed to
usbdev_remove() and it is now called whenever any USB device is
removed, not just when a class device is unregistered. The notifier
registration and unregistration calls are no longer conditionally
compiled. And since the common removal code will always be called as
part of the char device interface, there's no need to call it again as
part of the usbfs interface; thus the invocation of
usb_fs_classdev_common_remove() has been taken out of
usbfs_remove_device().

Why?:
There are occasions where userspace would like to access sysfs
attributes for a device but it may not know how sysfs has named the
device or the path. For example what is the sysfs path for
/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3160827AS_5MT004CK? With this change a call to
stat(2) returns the major:minor then userspace can see that
/sys/dev/block/8:32 links to /sys/block/sdc.
What are the alternatives?:
1/ Add an ioctl to return the path: Doable, but sysfs is meant to reduce
the need to proliferate ioctl interfaces into the kernel, so this
seems counter productive.
2/ Use udev to create these symlinks: Also doable, but it adds a
udev dependency to utilities that might be running in a limited
environment like an initramfs.
3/ Do a full-tree search of sysfs.

USB device files are accessible in two ways: as files in usbfs and as
character device nodes. The two paths are supposed to behave
identically, but they don't. When the underlying USB device is
unplugged, disconnect signals are sent to processes with open usbfs
files (if they requested these signals) but not to processes with open
device node files.
This patch (as1104) fixes the bug by moving the disconnect-signalling
code into a common subroutine which is called from both paths.
Putting this subroutine in devio.c removes the only out-of-file
reference to struct dev_state, and so the structure's declaration can
be moved from usb.h into devio.c.
Finally, the new subroutine performs one extra action: It kills all
the outstanding async URBs. (I'd kill the outstanding synchronous
URBs too, if there was any way to do it.) In the past this hasn't
mattered much, because devices were unregistered from usbfs only
when they were disconnected. But now the unregistration can also
occur whenever devices are unbound from the usb_generic driver. At
any rate, killing URBs when a device is unregistered from usbfs seems
like a good thing to do.

The idea of the patch is that external interface driver
should warn the other interfaces' driver of the same

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

o The "real" usb-devices export now a device node which can
populate /dev/bus/usb.
o The usb_device class is optional now and can be disabled in the
kernel config. Major/minor of the "real" devices and class devices
are the same.
o The environment of the usb-device event contains DEVNUM and BUSNUM to
help udev and get rid of the ugly udev rule we need for the class
devices.
o The usb-devices and usb-interfaces share the same bus, so I used
the new "struct device_type" to let these devices identify
themselves. This also removes the current logic of using a magic
platform-pointer.
The name of the device_type is also added to the environment
which makes it easier to distinguish the different kinds of devices
on the same subsystem.
It looks like this:
add@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
ACTION=add
DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1
SUBSYSTEM=usb
SEQNUM=1533
MAJOR=189
MINOR=131
DEVTYPE=usb_device
PRODUCT=46d/c03e/2000
TYPE=0/0/0
BUSNUM=002
DEVNUM=004
This udev rule works as a replacement for usb_device class devices:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"

But even if the device does have a configuration 0, dev->actconfig

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.

This patch (as711b) is a revised version of an earlier submission. It
modifies the usbfs code to detect when a device has been unregistered from
usbfs, even if the device is still connected. Although this can't happen
now, it will be able to happen after the upcoming changes to usb_generic.
Nobody objected to this patch when it was submitted before, so it should
be okay to apply this version. The revision is merely to take into
account the changes introduced by as723, which touches the same driver.

The usbfs code doesn't provide sufficient mutual exclusion among open,
release, and remove. Release vs. remove is okay because they both
acquire the device lock, but open is not exclusive with either one. All
three routines modify the udev->filelist linked list, so they must not
run concurrently.
Apparently someone gave this a minimum amount of thought in the past by
explicitly acquiring the BKL at the start of the usbdev_open routine.
Oddly enough, there's a comment pointing out that locking is unnecessary
because chrdev_open already has acquired the BKL.
But this ignores the point that the files in /proc/bus/usb/* are not
char device files; they are regular files and so they don't get any
special locking. Furthermore it's necessary to acquire the same lock in
the release and remove routines, which the code does not do.
Yet another problem arises because the same file_operations structure is
accessible through both the /proc/bus/usb/* and /dev/usb/usbdev* file
nodes. Even when one of them has been removed, it's still possible for
userspace to open the other. So simple locking around the individual
remove routines is insufficient; we need to lock the entire
usb_notify_remove_device notifier chain.
Rather than rely on the BKL, this patch (as723) introduces a new private
mutex for the purpose. Holding the BKL while invoking a notifier chain
doesn't seem like a good idea.

The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86. (It would be more on an x86_64 system). This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).
This patch:
The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer. Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer. This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.

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.

This patch (as699) adds usb_reset_composite_device(), a routine for
sending a USB port reset to a device with multiple interfaces owned by
different drivers. Drivers are notified about impending and completed
resets through two new methods in the usb_driver structure.
The patch modifieds the usbfs ioctl code to make it use the new routine
instead of usb_reset_device(). Follow-up patches will modify the hub,
usb-storage, and usbhid drivers so they can utilize this new API.

This patch removes the artificial 4088-byte limit that usbfs
currently places on Control transfers. The USB spec does not
specify a strict limit on the size of an entire control transfer.
It does, however, state that the data stage "follows the same
protocol rules as bulk transfers." (USB 2, 8.5.3)
The level of support for large control transfers in real host
controllers varies, but it's important to support at least 4K
transfers. Windows enforces a maximum control transfer size
of 4K, so there exists some hardware that requires a full 4096
byte data stage. Without this patch, we fall short of that by
8 bytes on architectures with a 4K page size, and it becomes
impossible to support such hardware with a user-space driver.
Since any limit placed on control transfers by usbfs would be
arbitrary, this patch replaces the PAGE_SIZE limit with the same
arbitrary limit used by bulk transfers.

check_ctrlrecip() disallows any control transfers if the device is
deconfigured (in configuration 0, ie. state ADDRESS). This for example
makes it impossible to read the device descriptors without configuring the
device, although most standard device requests are allowed in this state by
the spec. This patch allows control transfers for the ADDRESS state, too.

This patch (as605) removes the private udev->serialize semaphore,
relying instead on the locking provided by the embedded struct device's
semaphore. The changes are confined to the core, except that the
usb_trylock_device routine now uses the return convention of
down_trylock rather than down_read_trylock (they return opposite values
for no good reason).
A couple of other associated changes are included as well:
Now that we aren't concerned about HCDs that avoid using the
hcd glue layer, usb_disconnect no longer needs to acquire the
usb_bus_lock -- that can be done by usb_remove_hcd where it
belongs.
Devices aren't locked over the same scope of code in
usb_new_device and hub_port_connect_change as they used to be.
This shouldn't cause any trouble.
Along with the preceding driver core patch, this needs a lot of testing.

All the same issues - we can't just save the pointer to the thread, we
must save the pid/uid/euid combination.
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 (as554) makes the hub driver disconnect any child USB devices
when it is unbound from a hub. Normally this will never happen, but
there are a few oddball ways to unbind the hub driver while leaving the
children intact. For example, the new "unbind" sysfs attribute can be
used for this purpose.
Given that unbinding hubs with children is now safe, the patch also
removes the code that prevented people from doing so using usbfs.

This patch introduces a /sys/class/usb_device/ class

| `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb1
|-- usb2.1
| |-- dev
| `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2
...
The presence of the "dev" file lets udev create real device nodes.

/dev/bus/usb/
|-- 1

SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usb_device %k", NAME="%c"
(echo $1 | /bin/sed 's/usb\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\)/bus\/usb\/\1\/\2/')
This makes libusb pick up the real nodes instead of the mounted usbfs:
export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb
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
replacement driven by udev and a pam-helper. It applies ACL's to device
nodes, which is required for modern desktop functionalty like
"Fast User Switching" or multiple local login support.
New patch with its own major. I've succesfully disabled usbfs and use real
nodes only on my box. With: "export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb" libusb picks
up the udev managed nodes instead of reading usbfs files.
This makes udev to provide symlinks for libusb to pick up:
SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usbdevice %k", SYMLINK="%c"
/sbin/usbdevice:
#!/bin/sh
