Daniel Ritz 5d3202949c [PATCH] USB: input/touchkitusb: handle multiple packets
Some versions of the controller seem to put multiple report packet into a
single urb. also it can happen that a packet is split across multiple urbs.
unpatched you get a jumpy cursor on some screens.
the patch does:
- handle multiple packets per urb
- handle packets split across multiple urb
- check packet type
- cleanups

Luiz Fernando Capitulino 8a4613f01f [PATCH] USB: usbserial: race-condition fix.
There is a race-condition in usb-serial driver that can be triggered if
a processes does 'port->tty->driver_data = NULL' in serial_close() while
other processes is in kernel-space about to call serial_ioctl() on the
same port.

This happens because a process can open the device while there is
another one closing it.

The patch below fixes that by adding a semaphore to ensure that no
process will open the device while another process is closing it.

Note that we can't use spinlocks here, since serial_open() and
serial_close() can sleep.

Alan Stern 55c527187c [PATCH] USB: Consider power budget when choosing configuration
This patch (as609) changes the way we keep track of power budgeting for
USB hubs and devices, and it updates the choose_configuration routine to
take this information into account.  (This is something we should have
been doing all along.)  A new field in struct usb_device holds the amount
of bus current available from the upstream port, and the usb_hub structure
keeps track of the current available for each downstream port.

Two new rules for configuration selection are added:

	Don't select a self-powered configuration when only bus power
	is available.

	Don't select a configuration requiring more bus power than is
	available.

However the first rule is #if-ed out, because I found that the internal
hub in my HP USB keyboard claims that its only configuration is
self-powered.  The rule would prevent the configuration from being chosen,
leaving the hub & keyboard unconfigured.  Since similar descriptor errors
may turn out to be fairly common, it seemed wise not to include a rule
that would break automatic configuration unnecessarily for such devices.

The second rule may also trigger unnecessarily, although this should be
less common.  More likely it will annoy people by sometimes failing to
accept configurations that should never have been chosen in the first
place.

The patch also changes usbcore's reaction when no configuration is
suitable.  Instead of raising an error and rejecting the device, now
the core will simply leave the device unconfigured.  People can always
work around such problems by installing configurations manually through
sysfs.

Alan Stern 7d069b7d80 [PATCH] USB: Disconnect children during hub unbind
This patch (as606b) is an updated version of my earlier patch to
disconnect children from a hub device when the hub driver is unbound.
Thanks to the changes in the driver core locking, we now know that the
entire hub device (and not just the interface) is locked whenever the
hub driver's disconnect method runs.  Hence it is safe to disconnect the
child device structures immediately instead of deferring the job.

The earlier version of the patch neglected to disable the hub's ports.
We don't want to forget that; otherwise we'd end up with live devices
using addresses that have been recycled.  This update adds the necessary
code.

Alan Stern 9ad3d6ccf5 [PATCH] USB: Remove USB private semaphore
This patch (as605) removes the private udev->serialize semaphore,
relying instead on the locking provided by the embedded struct device's
semaphore.  The changes are confined to the core, except that the
usb_trylock_device routine now uses the return convention of
down_trylock rather than down_read_trylock (they return opposite values
for no good reason).

A couple of other associated changes are included as well:

	Now that we aren't concerned about HCDs that avoid using the
	hcd glue layer, usb_disconnect no longer needs to acquire the
	usb_bus_lock -- that can be done by usb_remove_hcd where it
	belongs.

	Devices aren't locked over the same scope of code in
	usb_new_device and hub_port_connect_change as they used to be.
	This shouldn't cause any trouble.

Along with the preceding driver core patch, this needs a lot of testing.

doing "rmmod g_file_storage </sys/.../lun0/ro" since the open file will
prevent rmmod from running), the code might as well follow the standard
procedures.  Besides, this shrinks the size of the structure by a few

This makes UHCI stop using the HCD glue wakeup flags to report whether
the controller can wake the system.  The existing code was wrong anyway;
having a PCI PM capability doesn't imply it reports PME# is supported.

I skimmed Intel's ICH7 datasheet and that basically says the wakeup
signaling gets routed only through ACPI registers.  (On the other hand,
many VIA chips provide the PCI PM capabilities...)  I think that doing
this correctly with UHCI is going to require the ACPI folk to associate
the /proc/acpi/wakeup identifiers (and wakeup enable/disable flags)
with the relevant /sys/devices/pci*/...  devices.

matthieu castet b72458a80c [PATCH] USB: Eagle and ADI 930 usb adsl modem driver
A driver for USB ADSL modems based on the ADI eagle chipset using the
usb_atm infrastructure.

The managing part was taken from bsd ueagle driver, other parts were
written from scratch.

The driver uses the in-kernel firmware loader :
- to load  a first usb firmware when the modem is in pre-firmware state
- to load the dsp firmware that are swapped in host memory.
- to load CMV (configuration and management variables) when the modem
boot. (We can't use options or sysfs for this as there many possible
values. See
https://mail.gna.org/public/eagleusb-dev/2005-04/msg00031.html for a
description of some)
- to load fpga code for 930 chipset.

The device had 4 endpoints :
* 2 for data (use by usbatm). The incoming
endpoint could be iso or bulk. The modem seems buggy and produce lot's
of atm errors when using it in bulk mode for speed > 3Mbps, so iso
endpoint is need for speed > 3Mbps. At the moment iso endpoint need a
patched usbatm library and for this reason is not included in this patch.

* One bulk endpoint for uploading dsp firmware

* One irq endpoint that notices the driver
    - if we need to upload a page of the dsp firmware
    - an ack for read or write CMV and the value (for the read case).

If order to make the driver cleaner, we design synchronous
(read|write)_cmv :
-send a synchronous control message to the modem
-wait for an ack or a timeout
-return the value if needed.

In order to run these synchronous usb messages we need a kernel thread.

The driver has been tested  with sagem fast 800 modems with different
eagle chipset revision and with ADI 930 since April 2005.

Alan Stern 6912354a89 [PATCH] USB: EHCI: fix conflation of buf == 0 with len == 0
When the ehci-hcd driver prepares a control URB, it tests for a
zero-length data stage by looking at the transfer_dma value instead of
the transfer_buffer_length.  (In fact it does this even for non-control
URBs, which is an additional aspect of the same bug.)

However, under certain circumstances it's possible for transfer_dma to
be 0 while transfer_buffer_length is non-zero.  This can happen when a
freshly allocated page (mapped to address 0 and marked Copy-On-Write,
but never written to) is used as the source buffer for an OUT transfer.

- Switch from procfs to debugfs..
- Die gracefully on Unrecoverable Error interrupt.
- Fix memory leak in isp116x_urb_enqueue(), if HC happens to

- Fix a 'sparce' warning (unnecessary cast).
- Report Devices Removable for root hub ports by default
  (was Devices Permanently Attached).
- Move bus suspend/resume functions down in code to get rid of

- A number of one-line cleanups.
- Add an entry to MAINTAINERS.

Dag-Erling Smrgrav abe842eb98 [PATCH] Avoid namespace pollution in <asm/param.h>
In commit 3D59121003721a8fad11ee72e646fd9d3076b5679c, the x86 and x86-64
<asm/param.h> was changed to include <linux/config.h> for the
configurable timer frequency.

However, asm/param.h is sometimes used in userland (it is included
indirectly from <sys/param.h>), so your commit pollutes the userland
namespace with tons of CONFIG_FOO macros.  This greatly confuses
software packages (such as BusyBox) which use CONFIG_FOO macros
themselves to control the inclusion of optional features.

After a short exchange, Christoph approved this patch

Benjamin Herrenschmidt f12f4d9030 [PATCH] powerpc: more g5 overtemp problem fix
Some G5s still occasionally experience shutdowns due to overtemp
conditions despite the recent fix. After analyzing logs from such
machines, it appears that the overtemp code is a bit too quick at
shutting the machine down when reaching the critical temperature (tmax +
8) and doesn't leave the fan enough time to actually cool it down. This
happens if the temperature of a CPU suddenly rises too high in a very
short period of time, or occasionally on boot (that is the CPUs are
already overtemp by the time the driver loads).

This patches makes the code a bit more relaxed, leaving a few seconds to
the fans to do their job before kicking the machine shutown.

Linus Torvalds de9e007d91 sysctl: make sure to terminate strings with a NUL
This is a slightly more complete fix for the previous minimal sysctl
string fix.  It always terminates the returned string with a NUL, even
if the full result wouldn't fit in the user-supplied buffer.

The returned length is the full untruncated length, so that you can
tell when truncation has occurred.

Yi Yang 82c9df8201 [PATCH] Fix false old value return of sysctl
For the sysctl syscall, if the user wants to get the old value of a
sysctl entry and set a new value for it in the same syscall, the old
value is always overwritten by the new value if the sysctl entry is of
string type and if the user sets its strategy to sysctl_string.  This
issue lies in the strategy being run twice if the strategy is set to
sysctl_string, the general strategy sysctl_string always returns 0 if
success.

Such strategy routines as sysctl_jiffies and sysctl_jiffies_ms return 1
because they do read and write for the sysctl entry.

The strategy routine sysctl_string return 0 although it actually read
and write the sysctl entry.

According to my analysis, if a strategy routine do read and write, it
should return 1, if it just does some necessary check but not read and
write, it should return 0, for example sysctl_intvec.

Linus Torvalds 8febdd85ad sysctl: don't overflow the user-supplied buffer with '\0'
If the string was too long to fit in the user-supplied buffer,
the sysctl layer would zero-terminate it by writing past the
end of the buffer. Don't do that.

Linus Torvalds 8b90db0df7 Insanity avoidance in /proc
The old /proc interfaces were never updated to use loff_t, and are just
generally broken.  Now, we should be using the seq_file interface for
all of the proc files, but converting the legacy functions is more work
than most people care for and has little upside..

But at least we can make the non-LFS rules explicit, rather than just
insanely wrapping the offset or something.
