commit 704620afc70cf47abb9d6a1a57f3825d2bca49cf upstream.

When reading an extra descriptor, we need to properly check the minimum
and maximum size allowed, to prevent from invalid data being sent by a
device.

<title>USB: handle NULL config in usb_find_alt_setting()</title>

<content type='text'>
commit c9a4cb204e9eb7fa7dfbe3f7d3a674fa530aa193 upstream.

usb_find_alt_setting() takes a pointer to a struct usb_host_config as
an argument; it searches for an interface with specified interface and
alternate setting numbers in that config.  However, it crashes if the
usb_host_config pointer argument is NULL.

Since this is a general-purpose routine, available for use in many
places, we want to to be more robust.  This patch makes it return NULL
whenever the config argument is NULL.

<title>usb: core: buffer: smallest buffer should start at ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN</title>

commit 5efd2ea8c9f4f12916ffc8ba636792ce052f6911 upstream.

the following error pops up during "testusb -a -t 10"
| musb-hdrc musb-hdrc.1.auto: dma_pool_free buffer-128,	f134e000/be842000 (bad dma)
hcd_buffer_create() creates a few buffers, the smallest has 32 bytes of
size. ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to 64 bytes. This combo results in
hcd_buffer_alloc() returning memory which is 32 bytes aligned and it
might by identified by buffer_offset() as another buffer. This means the
buffer which is on a 32 byte boundary will not get freed, instead it
tries to free another buffer with the error message.

This patch fixes the issue by creating the smallest DMA buffer with the
size of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (or 32 in case ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is
smaller). This might be 32, 64 or even 128 bytes. The next three pools
will have the size 128, 512 and 2048.
In case the smallest pool is 128 bytes then we have only three pools
instead of four (and zero the first entry in the array).
The last pool size is always 2048 bytes which is the assumed PAGE_SIZE /
2 of 4096. I doubt it makes sense to continue using PAGE_SIZE / 2 where
we would end up with 8KiB buffer in case we have 16KiB pages.
Instead I think it makes sense to have a common size(s) and extend them
if there is need to.
There is a BUILD_BUG_ON() now in case someone has a minalign of more than
128 bytes.

<title>usb: ehci: Only sleep for post-resume handover if devices use persist</title>
<updated>2013-05-20T18:28:55+00:00</updated>

<id>9b790915450e2e2eb9a8df7fe32f41e895de9da1</id>
<content type='text'>
The current EHCI code sleeps a flat 110ms in the resume path if there
was a USB 1.1 device connected to its companion controller during
suspend, waiting for the device to reappear and reset so that it can be
handed back to the companion. This is necessary if the device uses
persist, so that the companion controller can actually see it during its
own resume path.

However, if the device doesn't use persist, this is entirely
unnecessary. We might just as well ignore it and have the normal device
detection/reset/handoff code handle it asynchronously when it eventually
shows up. As USB 1.1 devices are almost exclusively HIDs these days (for
which persist has no value), this can allow distros to shave another
tenth of a second off their resume time.

In order to enable this optimization, the patch also adds a new
usb_for_each_dev() iterator that is exported by the USB core and wraps
bus_for_each_dev() with the logic to differentiate between struct
usb_device and struct usb_interface on the usb_bus_type bus.

Now that devtmpfs is caring about uid/gid, we need to use the correct
internal types so users who have USER_NS enabled will have things work
properly for them.

Thanks to Eric for pointing this out, and the patch review.

<content type='text'>
Some drivers want to tell userspace what uid and gid should be used for
their device nodes, so allow that information to percolate through the
driver core to userspace in order to make this happen.  This means that
some systems (i.e.  Android and friends) will not need to even run a
udev-like daemon for their device node manager and can just rely in
devtmpfs fully, reducing their footprint even more.

Some drivers want to tell userspace what uid and gid should be used for
their device nodes, so allow that information to percolate through the
driver core to userspace in order to make this happen.  This means that
some systems (i.e.  Android and friends) will not need to even run a
udev-like daemon for their device node manager and can just rely in
devtmpfs fully, reducing their footprint even more.
