USB: serial: fix module-license macros

2017-11-04T10:58:00+00:00

Several GPL-2.0 drivers used "GPL" rather than "GPL v2" in their MODULE_LICENSE macros; fix the macros to match the licenses. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: serial: Remove redundant license text

2017-11-04T10:55:38+00:00

Now that the SPDX tag is in all USB files, that identifies the license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all. This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never needed. No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

USB: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/usb/

2017-11-04T10:48:02+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the drivers/usb/ and include/linux/usb* files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

USB: serial: symbolserial: simplify endpoint check

2017-03-16T09:33:47+00:00

Simplify the endpoint sanity check by letting core verify that the required endpoints are present. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold

USB: symbolserial: Correct transferred data size

2015-08-18T17:06:22+00:00

The scanner (here DS3508) always returns 64 bytes per urb buffer. The first byte indicates the data length used in the current buffer. There even was a comment describing this. But the comment also said that we'll send everything in the buffer to the tty layer. That means sending the actual barcode data and lots of trailing zeroes. This patch lets the driver only send the real data. Signed-off-by: Philipp Hachtmann Acked-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: symbolserial: Use usb_get_serial_port_data

2015-08-18T17:06:22+00:00

The driver used usb_get_serial_data(port->serial) which compiled but resulted in a NULL pointer being returned (and subsequently used). I did not go deeper into this but I guess this is a regression.

USB: serial: add missing newlines to dev_ messages.

2014-03-12T19:44:50+00:00

Add missing newlines to dev_ messages. Also make some messages less verbose where appropriate. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

usb: delete non-required instances of include

2014-01-08T23:01:39+00:00

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives and hence don't need to include . Most are just a left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to code getting copied from one driver to the next. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: symbolserial: move private-data allocation to port_probe

2013-04-17T17:05:35+00:00

Allocate port-private data in port-probe rather than in attach. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: symbolserial: remove unused private data

2013-04-17T17:05:35+00:00

Use port device for debug messages in interrupt-urb callback and remove unused private data. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
