USB: fix race in autosuspend reschedule

2007-10-12T21:55:35+00:00

This patch (as1002) fixes a small race which can occur when a driver
expects usbcore to reschedule an autosuspend request.  If the request
arrives too late, it won't be rescheduled.  The patch adds an extra
argument to autosuspend_check(), indicating that a reschedule is
needed no matter how much time has elapsed.

It also tries to avoid letting asynchronous changes to the value of
jiffies cause a delay to become negative, by caching a local copy of
the current time.

USB: skip autosuspended devices during system resume

2007-10-12T21:55:34+00:00

System suspends and hibernation are supposed to be as transparent as
possible.  By this reasoning, if a USB device is already autosuspended
before the system sleep begins then it should remain autosuspended
after the system wakes up.

This patch (as1001) adds a skip_sys_resume flag to the usb_device
structure and uses it to avoid waking up devices which were suspended
when a system sleep began.

USB: don't propagate FREEZE or PRETHAW suspends

2007-10-12T21:55:28+00:00

This patch (as992) fixes a recently-added bug.  During a FREEZE or
PRETHAW suspend notification, non-root devices don't actually get
suspended.  So we shouldn't tell their parent hubs that they did.

(This code path used to be skipped over, until the FREEZE/PRETHAW test
got moved out of usb_suspend_both() into generic_suspend().)

USB: flush outstanding URBs when suspending

2007-10-12T21:55:26+00:00

This patch (as989) makes usbcore flush all outstanding URBs for each
device as the device is suspended.  This will be true even when
CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND is not enabled.

In addition, an extra can_submit flag is added to the usb_device
structure.  That flag will be turned off whenever a suspend request
has been received for the device, even if the device isn't actually
suspended because CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND isn't set.

It's no longer necessary to check for the device state being equal to
USB_STATE_SUSPENDED during URB submission; that check can be replaced
by a check of the can_submit flag.  This also permits us to remove
some questionable references to the deprecated power.power_state field.

USB: move decision to ignore FREEZE events

2007-10-12T21:55:26+00:00

This patch (as987) changes the way FREEZE and PRETHAW suspend events
are handled in usbcore.  The decision about whether or not to ignore
them for non-root devices is pushed down into the USB-device driver,
instead of being made in the core code.

This is appropriate, since devices exported to a virtualized guest or
over a network may indeed need to handle these types of suspend, even
though normal devices don't.

usb: usb_probe_interface() obeys authorization

2007-10-12T21:55:07+00:00

If called and the device is not authorized to be used, it won't
configure the interface and print a message saying so.

Driver core: change add_uevent_var to use a struct

2007-10-12T21:51:01+00:00

This changes the uevent buffer functions to use a struct instead of a
long list of parameters. It does no longer require the caller to do the
proper buffer termination and size accounting, which is currently wrong
in some places. It fixes a known bug where parts of the uevent
environment are overwritten because of wrong index calculations.

Many thanks to Mathieu Desnoyers for finding bugs and improving the
error handling.

USB: update last_busy field correctly

2007-08-22T21:27:59+00:00

This patch (as966) fixes a bug in the autosuspend code.  The last_busy
field should be updated whenever any event occurs, not just events
that cause an autosuspend or an autoresume.

This partially fixes Bugzilla #8892.
