USB: usb-storage: add BAD_SENSE flag

2009-12-18T22:03:59+00:00

commit a0bb108112a872c0b0c4b3ef4974f95fb75b155d upstream.

This patch (as1311) fixes a problem in usb-storage: Some devices are
pretty broken when it comes to reporting sense data.  The information
they send back indicates that they have more than 18 bytes of sense
data available, but when the system asks for more than 18 they fail or
hang.  The symptom is that probing fails with multiple resets.

The patch adds a new BAD_SENSE flag to indicate that usb-storage
should never ask for more than 18 bytes of sense data.  The flag can
be set in an unusual_devs entry or via the "quirks=" module parameter,
and it is set automatically whenever a REQUEST SENSE command for more
than 18 bytes fails or times out.

An unusual_devs entry is added for the Agfa photo frame, which uses a
Prolific chip having this bug.

usb-storage: prepare for subdriver separation

2009-03-24T23:20:34+00:00

This patch (as1206) is the first step in converting usb-storage's
subdrivers into separate modules.  It makes the following large-scale
changes:

	Remove a bunch of unnecessary #ifdef's from usb_usual.h.
	Not truly necessary, but it does clean things up.

	Move the USB device-ID table (which is duplicated between
	libusual and usb-storage) into its own source file,
	usual-tables.c, and arrange for this to be linked with
	either libusual or usb-storage according to whether
	USB_LIBUSUAL is configured.

	Add to usual-tables.c a new usb_usual_ignore_device()
	function to detect whether a particular device needs to be
	managed by a subdriver and not by the standard handlers
	in usb-storage.

	Export a whole bunch of functions in usb-storage, renaming
	some of them because their names don't already begin with
	"usb_stor_".  These functions will be needed by the new
	subdriver modules.

	Split usb-storage's probe routine into two functions.
	The subdrivers will call the probe1 routine, then fill in
	their transport and protocol settings, and then call the
	probe2 routine.

	Take the default cases and error checking out of
	get_transport() and get_protocol(), which run during
	probe1, and instead put a check for invalid transport
	or protocol values into the probe2 function.

	Add a new probe routine to be used for standard devices,
	i.e., those that don't need a subdriver.  This new routine
	checks whether the device should be ignored (because it
	should be handled by ub or by a subdriver), and if not,
	calls the probe1 and probe2 functions.

USB: storage: add last-sector hacks

2009-01-07T18:00:11+00:00

This patch (as1189b) adds some hacks to usb-storage for dealing with
the growing problems involving bad capacity values and last-sector
accesses:

	A new flag, US_FL_CAPACITY_OK, is created to indicate that
	the device is known to report its capacity correctly.  An
	unusual_devs entry for Linux's own File-backed Storage Gadget
	is added with this flag set, since g_file_storage always
	reports the correct capacity and since the capacity need
	not be even (it is determined by the size of the backing
	file).

	An entry in unusual_devs.h which has only the CAPACITY_OK
	flag set shouldn't prejudice libusual, since the device will
	work perfectly well with either usb-storage or ub.  So a
	new macro, COMPLIANT_DEV, is added to let libusual know
	about these entries.

	When a last-sector access succeeds and the total number of
	sectors is odd (the unexpected case, in which guessing that
	the number is even might cause trouble), a WARN is triggered.
	The kerneloops.org project will collect these warnings,
	allowing us to add CAPACITY_OK flags for the devices in
	question before implementing the default-to-even heuristic.
	If users want to prevent the stack dump produced by the WARN,
	they can disable the hack by adding an unusual_devs entry
	for their device with the CAPACITY_OK flag.

	When a last-sector access fails three times in a row and
	neither the FIX_CAPACITY nor the CAPACITY_OK flag is set,
	we assume the last-sector bug is present.  We replace the
	existing status and sense data with values that will cause
	the SCSI core to fail the access immediately rather than
	retry indefinitely.  This should fix the difficulties
	people have been having with Nokia phones.

USB: storage devices and SAT

2009-01-07T17:59:55+00:00

Add the SANE SENSE flag to indicate that a device is capable of handling
more than 18-bytes of sense data.  This functionality is required for
USB-ATA bridges implementing SAT.  A future patch will actually enable this
function for several devices.

The logic behind this is that we can detect support for SANE_SENSE in a few ways:
 1) ATA PASS THROUGH (12) or (16) execute successfully
 2) SPC-3 or higher is in use
 3) A previous CHECK CONDITION occurred with sense format 70-73 and had
    a length greater than 18-bytes total

USB: mass storage: emulation of sat scsi_pass_thru with ATACB

2008-04-25T04:16:42+00:00

I have got a cypress usb-ide bridge and I would like to tune or monitor
my disk with tools like hdparm, hddtemp or smartctl.

My controller support a way to send raw ATA command to the disk with
something call atacb (see
http://download.cypress.com.edgesuite.net/design_resources/datasheets/contents/cy7c68300c_8.pdf).

Atacb support can be added for each application, but there is some disadvantages :
- all application need to be patched
- A race is possible if there other accesses, because the emulation can
be split in 2 atacb scsi transactions. One for sending the command, one
for reading the register (if ck_cond is set). 

I have implemented the emulation in usb-storage with a special proto_handler,
and an unsual entry.

USB: add support for Motorola ROKR Z6 cellphone in mass storage mode

2008-03-25T05:26:14+00:00

Motorola ROKR Z6 cellphone has bugs in its USB, so it is impossible to use
it as mass storage. Patch describes new "unusual" USB device for it with
FIX_INQUIRY and FIX_CAPACITY flags and new BULK_IGNORE_TAG flag.
Last flag relaxes check for equality of bcs->Tag and us->tag in
usb_stor_Bulk_transport routine.

USB: usb-storage: new "lockable" subclass 0x07

2008-02-01T22:34:49+00:00

This patch (as1011) adds a #define for the newly-created Lockable
(i.e., password-protected) subclass 0x07 for USB mass-storage devices.
The private ISD200 entry (which had been mapped to subclass 0x07) is
moved to 0xf0, which is unlikely to conflict with any official
subclass designation.

The US_SC_MIN and US_SC_MAX constants aren't used anywhere, so the
patch removes them.

usb-storage: Fix devices that cannot handle 32k transfers

2007-12-17T18:47:14+00:00

When a device cannot handle the smallest previously limited transfer
size (64 blocks) without stalling, limit the device to the amount of
packets that fit in a platform native page.

The lowest possible limit is PAGE_CACHE_SIZE, so if the device is ever
used on a platform that has larger than 8K pages, you lose unless you
can convince the device firmware folks to fix the issue.

USB Storage: indistinguishable devices with broken and unbroken firmware

2007-02-16T23:32:19+00:00

there's a USB mass storage device which exists in two version. One
reports the correct size and the other does not. Apart from that they
are identical and cannot be told apart. Here's a heuristic based on the
empirical finding that drives have even sizes.
