usb: core: rename mutex usb_bus_list_lock to usb_bus_idr_lock

2016-02-07T05:55:57+00:00

Now that usb_bus_list has been removed and switched to idr
rename the related mutex accordingly.

usb: core: switch bus numbering to using idr

2016-02-03T21:26:30+00:00

USB bus numbering is based on directly dealing with bitmaps and
defines a separate list of busses.
This can be simplified and unified by using existing idr functionality.

usb: define USB_SPEED_SUPER_PLUS speed for SuperSpeedPlus USB3.1 devices

2016-01-25T04:16:52+00:00

Add a new USB_SPEED_SUPER_PLUS device speed, and make sure usb core can
handle the new speed.
In most cases the behaviour is the same as with USB_SPEED_SUPER SuperSpeed
devices. In a few places we add a "Plus" string to inform the user of the
new speed.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs

2013-02-27T04:16:07+00:00

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
 "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
  locking violations, etc.

  The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
  "has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
  to inode.  Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

  Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
  several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

  PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

usb/core: consider link speed while looking at bMaxPower

2013-01-12T00:16:01+00:00

The USB 2.0 specification says that bMaxPower is the maximum power
consumption expressed in 2 mA units and the USB 3.0 specification says
that it is expressed in 8 mA units.
This patch adds a helper function usb_get_max_power() which computes the
value based on config & usb_device's speed value. The the device descriptor
dump computes the value on its own.

USB: hub_for_each_child should skip unconnected ports

2012-10-24T21:51:21+00:00

This patch (as1619) improves the interface to the "hub_for_each_child"
macro.  The name clearly suggests that the macro iterates over child
devices; it does not suggest that the loop will also iterate over
unnconnected ports.

The patch changes the macro so that it will skip over unconnected
ports and iterate only the actual child devices.  The two existing
call sites are updated to avoid testing for a NULL child pointer,
which is now unnecessary.

USB: Fix race condition when removing host controllers

2012-09-26T17:21:08+00:00

This patch (as1607) fixes a race that can occur if a USB host
controller is removed while a process is reading the
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file.

The usb_device_read() routine uses the bus->root_hub pointer to
determine whether or not the root hub is registered.  The is not a
valid test, because the pointer is set before the root hub gets
registered and remains set even after the root hub is unregistered and
deallocated.  As a result, usb_device_read() or usb_device_dump() can
access freed memory, causing an oops.

The patch changes the test to use the hcd->rh_registered flag, which
does get set and cleared at the appropriate times.  It also makes sure
to hold the usb_bus_list_lock mutex while setting the flag, so that
usb_device_read() will become aware of new root hubs as soon as they
are registered.

usb: move children to struct usb_port

2012-09-10T19:59:42+00:00

The usb_device structure contains an array of usb_device "children".
This array is only valid if the usb_device is a hub, so it makes no
sense to store it there.  Instead, store the usb_device child
in its parent usb_port structure.

Since usb_port is an internal USB core structure, add a new function to
get the USB device child, usb_hub_find_child().  Add a new macro,
usb_hub_get_each_child(), to iterate over all the children attached to a
particular USB hub.

Remove the printing the USB children array pointer from the usb-ip
driver, since it's really not necessary.
