commit 1c11a172cb30492f5f6a82c6e118fdcd9946c34f upstream.

Use proper macro while extracting TRB transfer length from
Transfer event TRBs. Adding a macro EVENT_TRB_LEN (bits 0:23)
for the same, and use it instead of TRB_LEN (bits 0:16) in
case of event TRBs.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.31, that
contain the commit b10de142119a676552df3f0d2e3a9d647036c26a "USB: xhci:
Bulk transfer support".  This patch will have issues applying to older
kernels.

<title>USB: xhci - fix bit definitions for IMAN register</title>

commit f8264340e694604863255cc0276491d17c402390 upstream.

According to XHCI specification (5.5.2.1) the IP is bit 0 and IE is bit 1
of IMAN register. Previously their definitions were reversed.

Even though there are no ill effects being observed from the swapped
definitions (because IMAN_IP is RW1C and in legacy PCI case we come in
with it already set to 1 so it was clearing itself even though we were
setting IMAN_IE instead of IMAN_IP), we should still correct the values.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.36, that
contain the commit 4e833c0b87a30798e67f06120cecebef6ee9644c "xhci: don't
re-enable IE constantly".

commit feca7746d5d9e84b105a613b7f3b6ad00d327372 upstream.

This patch (as1661) fixes a rather obscure bug in ehci-hcd.  In a
couple of places, the driver compares the DMA address stored in a QH's
overlay region with the address of a particular qTD, in order to see
whether that qTD is the one currently being processed by the hardware.
(If it is then the status in the QH's overlay region is more
up-to-date than the status in the qTD, and if it isn't then the
overlay's value needs to be adjusted when the QH is added back to the
active schedule.)

However, DMA address in the overlay region isn't always valid.  It
sometimes will contain a stale value, which may happen by coincidence
to be equal to a qTD's DMA address.  Instead of checking the DMA
address, we should check whether the overlay region is active and
valid.  The patch tests the ACTIVE bit in the overlay, and clears this
bit when the overlay becomes invalid (which happens when the
currently-executing URB is unlinked).

This is the second part of a fix for the regression reported at:

commit 760973d2a74b93eb1697981f7448f0e62767cfc4 upstream.

An isochronous TD is comprised of one isochronous TRB chained to zero or
more normal TRBs.  Only the isoc TRB has the TBC and TLBPC fields.  The
normal TRBs must set those fields to zeroes.  The code was setting the
TBC and TLBPC fields for both isoc and normal TRBs.  Fix this.

This should be backported to stable kernels as old as 3.0, that contain

commit 3e619d04159be54b3daa0b7036b0ce9e067f4b5d upstream.

This patch (as1654) fixes a very old bug in ehci-hcd, connected with
scheduling of periodic split transfers.  The calculations for
full/low-speed bus usage are all carried out after the correction for
bit-stuffing has been applied, but the values in the max_tt_usecs
array assume it hasn't been.  The array should allow for allocation of
up to 90% of the bus capacity, which is 900 us, not 780 us.

The symptom caused by this bug is that any isochronous transfer to a
full-speed device with a maxpacket size larger than about 980 bytes is
always rejected with a -ENOSPC error.

commit 0f815a0a700bc10547449bde6c106051a035a1b9 upstream.

This patch (as1644) fixes a race that occurs during startup in
uhci-hcd.  If the IRQ line is shared with other devices, it's possible
for the handler routine to be called before the data structures are
fully initialized.

The problem is fixed by adding a check to the IRQ handler routine.  If
the initialization hasn't finished yet, the routine will return
immediately.

commit 68e5254adb88bede68285f11fb442a4d34fb550c upstream.

xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring() builds a list of xhci_segments and links
the tail to head at the end (forming a ring). When it bails out for OOM
reasons half-way through, it tries to destroy its half-built list with
xhci_free_segments_for_ring(), even though it is not a ring yet. This
causes a null-pointer dereference upon hitting the last element.

Furthermore, one of its callers (xhci_ring_alloc()) mistakenly believes
the output parameters to be valid upon this kind of OOM failure, and
calls xhci_ring_free() on them. Since the (incomplete) list/ring should
already be destroyed in that case, this would lead to a use after free.

This patch fixes those issues by having xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring()
destroy its half-built, non-circular list manually and destroying the
invalid struct xhci_ring in xhci_ring_alloc() with a plain kfree().

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.31, that
contains the commit 0ebbab37422315a5d0cb29792271085bafdf38c0 "USB: xhci:
Ring allocation and initialization."

A separate patch will need to be developed for kernels older than 3.4,
since the ring allocation code was refactored in that kernel.

commit 68e5254adb88bede68285f11fb442a4d34fb550c upstream.

xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring() builds a list of xhci_segments and links
the tail to head at the end (forming a ring). When it bails out for OOM
reasons half-way through, it tries to destroy its half-built list with
xhci_free_segments_for_ring(), even though it is not a ring yet. This
causes a null-pointer dereference upon hitting the last element.

Furthermore, one of its callers (xhci_ring_alloc()) mistakenly believes
the output parameters to be valid upon this kind of OOM failure, and
calls xhci_ring_free() on them. Since the (incomplete) list/ring should
already be destroyed in that case, this would lead to a use after free.

This patch fixes those issues by having xhci_alloc_segments_for_ring()
destroy its half-built, non-circular list manually and destroying the
invalid struct xhci_ring in xhci_ring_alloc() with a plain kfree().

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.31, that
