USB: Add support for SuperSpeed isoc endpoints

2011-03-14T01:23:57+00:00

Use the Mult and bMaxBurst values from the endpoint companion descriptor to calculate the max length of an isoc transfer. Add USB_SS_MULT macro to access Mult field of bmAttributes, at Sarah's suggestion. This patch should be queued for the 2.6.36 and 2.6.37 stable trees, since those were the first kernels to have isochronous support for SuperSpeed devices.

USB: output an error message when the pipe type doesn't match the endpoint type

2010-10-22T17:21:27+00:00

Commit f661c6f8c67bd55e93348f160d590ff9edf08904 adds a check of the pipe type if CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled, but it doesn't output anything if this scenario occurs. Signed-off-by: Simon Arlott Cc: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: fix thread-unsafe anchor utiliy routines

2010-08-10T21:35:45+00:00

This patch fixes a race condition in two utility routines related to the removal/unlinking of urbs from an anchor. If two threads are concurrently accessing the same anchor, both could end up with the same urb - thinking they are the exclusive owner. Alan Stern pointed out a related issue in usb_unlink_anchored_urbs: "The URB isn't removed from the anchor until it completes (as a by-product of completion, in fact), which might not be for quite some time after the unlink call returns. In the meantime, the subroutine will keep trying to unlink it, over and over again."

USB: Add a usb_pipe_endpoint() convenience function

2010-05-20T20:21:41+00:00

Converting a pipe number to a struct usb_host_endpoint pointer is a little messy. Introduce a new convenience function to hide the mess. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: fix usbmon and DMA mapping for scatter-gather URBs

2010-05-20T20:21:37+00:00

This patch (as1368) fixes a rather obscure bug in usbmon: When tracing URBs sent by the scatter-gather library, it accesses the data buffers while they are still mapped for DMA. The solution is to move the mapping and unmapping out of the s-g library and into the usual place in hcd.c. This requires the addition of new URB flag bits to describe the kind of mapping needed, since we have to call dma_map_sg() if the HCD supports native scatter-gather operation and dma_map_page() if it doesn't. The nice thing about having the new flags is that they simplify the testing for unmapping. The patch removes the only caller of usb_buffer_[un]map_sg(), so those functions are #if'ed out. A later patch will remove them entirely. As a result of this change, urb->sg will be set in situations where it wasn't set previously. Hence the xhci and whci drivers are adjusted to test urb->num_sgs instead, which retains its original meaning and is nonzero only when the HCD has to handle a scatterlist. Finally, even when a submission error occurs we don't want to hand URBs to usbmon before they are unmapped. The submission path is rearranged so that map_urb_for_dma() is called only for non-root-hub URBs and unmap_urb_for_dma() is called immediately after a submission error. This simplifies the error handling. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern CC: Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: remove uses of URB_NO_SETUP_DMA_MAP

2010-05-20T20:21:31+00:00

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: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: make hcd.h public (drivers dependency)

2010-05-20T20:21:30+00:00

The usbcore headers: hcd.h and hub.h are shared between usbcore, HCDs and a couple of other drivers (e.g. USBIP modules). So, it makes sense to move them into a more public location and to cleanup dependency of those modules on kernel internal headers. This patch moves hcd.h from drivers/usb/core into include/linux/usb/ Signed-of-by: Eric Lescouet Cc: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: Fix usb_fill_int_urb for SuperSpeed devices

2010-03-19T14:24:23+00:00

USB 3 and Wireless USB specify a logarithmic encoding of the endpoint interval that matches the USB 2 specification. usb_fill_int_urb() didn't know that and was filling in the interval as if it was USB 1.1. Fix usb_fill_int_urb() for SuperSpeed devices, but leave the wireless case alone, because David Vrabel wants to keep the old encoding. Update the struct urb kernel doc to note that SuperSpeed URBs must have urb->interval specified in microframes. Add a missing break statement in the usb_submit_urb() interrupt URB checking, since wireless USB and SuperSpeed USB encode urb->interval differently. This allows xHCI roothubs to actually register with khubd. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox Signed-off-by: Sarah Sharp Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: rename USB_SPEED_VARIABLE to USB_SPEED_WIRELESS

2010-03-02T22:53:36+00:00

It's really the wireless speed, so rename the thing to make more sense. Based on a recommendation from David Vrabel Cc: David Vrabel Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: check the endpoint type against the pipe type

2010-03-02T22:53:07+00:00

This patch (as1316) adds some error checking to usb_submit_urb(). It's conditional on CONFIG_USB_DEBUG, so it won't affect normal users. The new check makes sure that the actual type of the endpoint described by urb->pipe agrees with the type encoded in the pipe value. The USB error code documentation is updated to include the code returned by the new check, and the usbfs SUBMITURB handler is updated to use the correct pipe type when legacy user code tries to submit a bulk transfer to an interrupt endpoint.
