commit 831abf76643555a99b80a3b54adfa7e4fa0a3259 upstream.

Trying to read data from the Pegasus Technologies NoteTaker (0e20:0101)
[1] with the Windows App (EasyNote) works natively but fails when
Windows is running under KVM (and the USB device handed to KVM).

The reason is a USB control message
 usb 4-2.2: control urb: bRequestType=22 bRequest=09 wValue=0200 wIndex=0001 wLength=0008
This goes to endpoint address 0x01 (wIndex); however, endpoint address
0x01 does not exist. There is an endpoint 0x81 though (same number,
but other direction); the app may have meant that endpoint instead.

The kernel thus rejects the IO and thus we see the failure.

Apparently, Linux is more strict here than Windows ... we can't change
the Win app easily, so that's a problem.

It seems that the Win app/driver is buggy here and the driver does not
behave fully according to the USB HID class spec that it claims to
belong to.  The device seems to happily deal with that though (and
seems to not really care about this value much).

So the question is whether the Linux kernel should filter here.
Rejecting has the risk that somewhat non-compliant userspace apps/
drivers (most likely in a virtual machine) are prevented from working.
Not rejecting has the risk of confusing an overly sensitive device with
such a transfer. Given the fact that Windows does not filter it makes
this risk rather small though.

The patch makes the kernel more tolerant: If the endpoint address in
wIndex does not exist, but an endpoint with toggled direction bit does,
it will let the transfer through. (It does NOT change the message.)

With attached patch, the app in Windows in KVM works.
 usb 4-2.2: check_ctrlrecip: process 13073 (qemu-kvm) requesting ep 01 but needs 81

I suspect this will mostly affect apps in virtual environments; as on
Linux the apps would have been adapted to the stricter handling of the
kernel. I have done that for mine[2].

commit 526867c3ca0caa2e3e846cb993b0f961c33c2abb upstream.

The halted state of a endpoint cannot be cleared over CLEAR_HALT from a
user process, because the stopped_td variable was overwritten in the
handle_stopped_endpoint() function. So the xhci_endpoint_reset() function will
refuse the reset and communication with device can not run over this endpoint.

commit 284d20552461466b04d6bfeafeb1c47a8891b591 upstream.

When a command times out, the command ring is first aborted,
and then stopped. If the command ring is empty when it is stopped
the stop event will point to next command which is not yet set.
xHCI tries to handle this next event often causing an oops.

Don't handle command completion events on stopped cmd ring if ring is
empty.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.7, that contain
the commit b92cc66c047ff7cf587b318fe377061a353c120f "xHCI: add aborting

<title>xhci: Ensure a command structure points to the correct trb on the command ring</title>

commit ec7e43e2d98173483866fe2e4e690143626b659c upstream.

If a command on the command ring needs to be cancelled before it is handled
it can be turned to a no-op operation when the ring is stopped.
We want to store the command ring enqueue pointer in the command structure
when the command in enqueued for the cancellation case.

Some commands used to store the command ring dequeue pointers instead of enqueue
(these often worked because enqueue happends to equal dequeue quite often)

Other commands correctly used the enqueue pointer but did not check if it pointed
to a valid trb or a link trb, this caused for example stop endpoint command to timeout in
xhci_stop_device() in about 2% of suspend/resume cases.

This should also solve some weird behavior happening in command cancellation cases.

This patch is based on a patch submitted by Sarah Sharp to linux-usb, but
then forgotten:

While reading the config parsing code I noticed this check is missing, without
this check config-&gt;desc.wTotalLength can end up with a value larger then the
dev-&gt;rawdescriptors length for the config, and when userspace then tries to
get the rawdescriptors bad things may happen.

commit c8476fb855434c733099079063990e5bfa7ecad6 upstream.

If a USB controller with XHCI_RESET_ON_RESUME goes to runtime suspend,
a reset will be performed upon runtime resume. Any previously suspended
devices attached to the controller will be re-enumerated at this time.
This will cause problems, for example, if an open system call on the
device triggered the resume (the open call will fail).

Note that this change is only relevant when persist_enabled is not set
for USB devices.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that
contain the commit c877b3b2ad5cb9d4fe523c5496185cc328ff3ae9 "xhci: Add
reset on resume quirk for asrock p67 host".

commit c8476fb855434c733099079063990e5bfa7ecad6 upstream.

If a USB controller with XHCI_RESET_ON_RESUME goes to runtime suspend,
a reset will be performed upon runtime resume. Any previously suspended
devices attached to the controller will be re-enumerated at this time.
This will cause problems, for example, if an open system call on the
device triggered the resume (the open call will fail).

Note that this change is only relevant when persist_enabled is not set
for USB devices.

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.0, that
