commit 24f531371de17010f2b1b57d90e42240032e7733 upstream.

Since commits 4005ad4390bf (EHCI: implement new semantics for
URB_ISO_ASAP) and c75c5ab575af (ALSA: USB: adjust for changed 3.8 USB
API) became widely distributed, people have been experiencing problems
with audio transfers.  The slightest underrun causes complete failure,
requiring the audio stream to be restarted.

It turns out that the current isochronous API doesn't handle underruns
in the best way.  The ALSA developers would much rather have transfers
that are submitted too late be accepted and complete in the normal
fashion, rather than being refused outright.

This patch implements the requested approach.  When an isochronous URB
submission is so late that all its scheduled slots have already
expired, a debugging message will be printed in the log and the URB
will be accepted as usual.  Assuming it was submitted by a completion
handler (which is normally the case), it will complete shortly
thereafter with all the usb_iso_packet_descriptor status fields marked
-EXDEV.

This fixes (for ehci-hcd)

It should be applied to all kernels that include commit 4005ad4390bf.

commit 47a64a13d54f6c669b00542848d5550be3d3310e upstream.

Set the ehci-&gt;resuming flag for the port we receive a remote
wakeup on so that resume signalling can be completed.

Without this, the root hub timer will not fire again to check
if the resume was completed and there will be a never-ending wait on
on the port.

This effect is only observed if the HUB IRQ IN does not come after we
have initiated the port resume.

<title>xhci: Avoid NULL pointer deref when host dies.</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 203a86613fb3bf2767335659513fa98563a3eb71 upstream.

When the host controller fails to respond to an Enable Slot command, and
the host fails to respond to the register write to abort the command
ring, the xHCI driver will assume the host is dead, and call
usb_hc_died().

The USB device's slot_id is still set to zero, and the pointer stored at
xhci-&gt;devs[0] will always be NULL.  The call to xhci_check_args in
xhci_free_dev should have caught the NULL virt_dev pointer.

However, xhci_free_dev is designed to free the xhci_virt_device
structures, even if the host is dead, so that we don't leak kernel
memory.  xhci_free_dev checks the return value from the generic
xhci_check_args function.  If the return value is -ENODEV, it carries on
trying to free the virtual device.

The issue is that xhci_check_args looks at the host controller state
before it looks at the xhci_virt_device pointer.  It will return -ENIVAL
because the host is dead, and xhci_free_dev will ignore the return
value, and happily dereference the NULL xhci_virt_device pointer.

The fix is to make sure that xhci_check_args checks the xhci_virt_device
pointer before it checks the host state.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1203453 for
further details.  This patch doesn't solve the underlying issue, but
will ensure we don't see any more NULL pointer dereferences because of
the issue.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.1, that
contain the commit 7bd89b4017f46a9b92853940fd9771319acb578a "xhci: Don't

<title>usb: host: xhci: Enable XHCI_SPURIOUS_SUCCESS for all controllers with xhci 1.0</title>

commit 07f3cb7c28bf3f4dd80bfb136cf45810c46ac474 upstream.

Xhci controllers with hci_version &gt; 0.96 gives spurious success
events on short packet completion. During webcam capture the
"ERROR Transfer event TRB DMA ptr not part of current TD" was observed.
The same application works fine with synopsis controllers hci_version 0.96.
The same issue is seen with Intel Pantherpoint xhci controller. So enabling
this quirk in xhci_gen_setup if controller verion is greater than 0.96.
For xhci-pci move the quirk to much generic place xhci_gen_setup.

Note from Sarah:

The xHCI 1.0 spec changed how hardware handles short packets.  The HW
will notify SW of the TRB where the short packet occurred, and it will
also give a successful status for the last TRB in a TD (the one with the
IOC flag set).  On the second successful status, that warning will be
triggered in the driver.

Software is now supposed to not assume the TD is not completed until it
gets that last successful status.  That means we have a slight race
condition, although it should have little practical impact.  This patch
papers over that issue.

It's on my long-term to-do list to fix this race condition, but it is a
much more involved patch that will probably be too big for stable.  This
patch is needed for stable to avoid serious log spam.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that
contain the commit ad808333d8201d53075a11bc8dd83b81f3d68f0b "Intel xhci:
Ignore spurious successful event."

The patch will have to be modified for kernels older than 3.2, since
that kernel added the xhci_gen_setup function for xhci platform devices.
The correct conflict resolution for kernels older than 3.2 is to set
XHCI_SPURIOUS_SUCCESS in xhci_pci_quirks for all xHCI 1.0 hosts.

commit 4e5c9e6fa2d232a0686d5fe45cd1508484048936 upstream.

For PHY mode, the PHYs must be brought out of reset
before the EHCI controller is started.

This patch fixes the issue where USB devices are not found
on Beagleboard/Beagle-xm if USB has been started previously
by the bootloader. (e.g. by "usb start" command in u-boot)

Tested on Beagleboard, Beagleboard-xm and Pandaboard.

Issue present on 3.10 onwards.

This patch adds some code that inadvertently got left out of commit
c1fdb68e3d73741630ca16695cf9176c233be7ed (USB: EHCI: changes related
to qh_refresh()).  The calls to qh_refresh() and qh_link_periodic()
were taken out of qh_schedule(); therefore it is necessary to call
these routines manually after calling qh_schedule().

This patch reverts commit 3e619d04159be54b3daa0b7036b0ce9e067f4b5d
(USB: EHCI: fix bug in scheduling periodic split transfers).  The
commit was valid -- it fixed a real bug -- but the periodic scheduler
in ehci-hcd is in such bad shape (especially the part that handles
split transactions) that fixing one bug is very likely to cause
another to surface.  That's what happened in this case; the result was
choppy and noisy playback on certain 24-bit audio devices.

The only real fix will be to rewrite this entire section of code.  My
next project...

This fixes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1136110.

Thanks to Tim Richardson for extra testing and feedback, and to Joseph
Salisbury and Tyson Tan for tracking down the original source of the
problem.
