This is a resubmission of as225, together with appropriate changes for the
g_serial driver.  David Brownell's latest g_ether update makes it
unnecessary to change that file or gadget_chips.h.



dummy_hcd is simultaneously a host controller driver and a device
controller driver.  It creates a simulated HC together with a simulated
UDC plugged into it.  Gadget drivers can run under the simulated UDC and
will appear as regular USB devices on the simulated HC.  The simulation is
reasonably (although not totally) realistic.

It's a wonderful tool for testing and developing gadget drivers without
the need for lots of additional hardware: Both the host driver and the
gadget driver can run on the same computer.  It's been available for quite
some time in David's gadget-2.6 tree and it works well.  I couldn't have
gotten the file-storage gadget running in any reasonable length of time
without it.

And the maintainer doesn't seem to want to fix it :(

Yes, it compiles.

Here's an update for the Ethernet gadget that corresponds
to the earlier one for Gadget Zero ... it gets rid of almost
all the remaining controller-specific #ifdefs in this driver.
(And also lets the driver initialize using "dummy_hcd".)

This is a significant step towards doing hardware-specific
configuration at run time (or at least init-time) rather
than compile time, but other patches will be needed to take
it the rest of the way there.   (Especially considering the
RNDIS support...)  The runtime footprint of the driver shrank
a bit, mostly because things moved into the init section.

Some hardware had the poor taste to misbehave during probe(),
which turned up a minor bug.  This fixes it:  don't try to
free a network device that hasn't been registerd.

This patch provides standard symbols for the various USB
device and endpoint feature bits, so that drivers can
use symbolic names for them.  It also changes the code
relating to endpoint halts so it uses those symbols.

Patch below fixes an obvious race in the whiteheat usb serial driver...

This allows the pegasus driver to actually be seen as a config option.
Apparently it's not that popular, though I have confirmed that it still
works on at least the netgear fv101.

you are using GFP_KERNEL in irq and __devinit with hotpluggable code.

      - use proper GFP flags
      - kill __devinit

I screwed up. This corrects it.

you are using __devinit which must not be used with USB drivers,
in addition you are using some false GFP values and fail to check
some error codes.

  - check for unlink due to removal of controller
  - correct GFP values
  - no __devinit in USB

this driver is doing DMA to the stack. Here's the obvious fix.

Patch below fixes some obscenely high stack uage;
struct hiddev_usage_ref_multi is well over 4Kb in size so really doesn't
belong on the stack.

some error codes are incorrect and there's an URB leak in an error path.

This patch introduces a major simplification into the UHCI driver by
replacing its multiple spinlocks with a single one.  The protected area of
code is slightly larger and there's more possibilities for contention on
an SMP system, but I think that shouldn't be a problem.  Stephen Hemminger
has been kind enough to test this on his SMP computer and he hasn't
encountered any difficulties.

This patch simplies the way the UHCI driver handles short control
transfers.  When a transfer is short the HC will stop handling that
endpoint, and it's necessary to get it going again so that the status
stage of the control transfer can take place.  Currently the driver does
this by allocating a new QH for the transfer and setting its element
pointer to point at the final status TD.  The old QH is recycled.  But
it's not necessary to go to all that trouble; the element pointer in the
original QH can be updated directly.

Normally the element pointer is supposed to be owned by the HC, and it's
not safe to just change its value since the HC may overwrite it at any
time.  But when a transfer is stopped because of a short packet, the
current TD is marked inactive and the HC will not update the element
pointer.  To write an unchanged pointer value back to memory would be a
waste of PCI bus cycles.  Now the UHCI spec doesn't say explicitly that an
HC _can't_ do this, but I've tested both Intel and VIA hardware and
neither of them does.

As a side effect of this change, some of the code for removing QHs can be
eliminated.

This patch makes some simple changes to the way the UHCI driver does short
packet detection.  The current implementation is incorrect in several
ways:

	The Short-Packet-Detect flag is set for OUT transfers, which
	yields undefined behavior according to the UHCI spec.

	It's not set for URBs with URB_SHORT_NOT_OK, which is just the
	opposite of what we want!  Those are the ones where short packets
	do matter.

	It is set for the last packet in a transfer, which causes an
	unnecessary pause in the data flow (except of course that the
	pause _is_ necessary when URB_SHORT_NOT_OK is set).

The patch also implements the URB_NO_INTERRUPT flag for bulk transfers,
which can help improve system performance by reducing interrupt overhead.

This is a very minor point, unlikely ever to come up.  But just in case...

It's conceivable that a device might transmit different values for a
configuration descriptor's wTotalLength the first time we ask for it (in
order to get the length) and the second time (to get the entire
descriptor).  Should that improbable event occur, the rawdescriptor buffer
could be allocated using a size that's smaller than the length recorded in
the rawdescriptor itself.  This patch protects devio.c against such a
problem.

If you feel this sequence of events is too unlikely to worry about, then
don't bother to apply the patch.

there's a race in how open handles multiple openers.
You implement exclusive opening and wait for close
in case of further openers. However if there are more than one
waiter, only one of them must be allowed to proceed.

Thank you for sending this in.  An update will appear soon.

Thanks for reviewing this code, I'm new to Linux driver development and
more eyes on my work is a good thing.   I've actually been working on
some more cleanups to the driver to fix the race between open and
disconnect, and was just about to send it in...

So, the attached patch against 2.6.5-rc1-mm1 includes a mutex to lock
the open/disconnect paths, modelled after the usb-skeleton driver. It
includes Oliver Neukum's fixes and other cleanups as well.

Correct kernel-doc comment with incorrect parameters documented

I saw that you just added another unusual_devs.h entry submitted by
Henning Schild, for vendor ID 0x05e3.  It turns out this is our old friend
Genesys Logic.

A recent message from Brad Campbell included a Windows driver file by
Genesys, and it included these lines:

USB\VID_05E3&PID_0700.DeviceDesc="USB Card Reader"
USB\VID_05E3&PID_0701.DeviceDesc="USB Optical Device"
USB\VID_05E3&PID_0702.DeviceDesc="USB Mass Storage Device"

Based on this information, we can clean up the 0x05e3 entries in
unusual_devs.h.  This patch puts all three entries into a regularized
form.

Thank you for sending this in.  An update will appear in a forthcoming
kernel.

Greg, here's the patch.

Need to initialize timers a bit earlier to handle
certain initialization faults.


OSDL bug 2006

Need to initialize some timers a bit earlier to clean up safely
after very early init HCD failures.

Those early init faults were needlessly mysterious since they
didn't emit diagnostics except at HCD discretion.

Some boot-time messages were obnoxiously long because
they used "old-style" diagnostics.


OSDL bugid 481

Get rid of most remaining "old style" diagnostics from usbcore.
Most messages use driver model style diagnostics.  Messages that
don't have an associated device use the standard kernel printk
wrappers and label themselves as from "usbcore".  (Except that
there's no such wrapper for KERN_ERR.)

This doesn't touch usbfs, "config.c" (Alan's patches do this), or
usb_reset_device() (needs a more substantial overhaul).  Or any
other USB drivers (notably HID).

This patch makes some improvements to the code in config.c.

	Create a subroutine to handle the repeated task of skipping
	forward to the next descriptor of a certain type.

	Remove some fairly useless debugging messages (they could
	never even have been enabled in the pre-as221 code).

	Verify that endpoint descriptors don't have an address
	equal to 0 (as well as not being above 15).

	Rename some local variables so they are a little more
	consistent and meaningful.

Despite all the changes, the functionality should remain the same.
Please apply.

This patch improves error reporting in the configuration parsing routines.
It also adds a few extra minor tweaks.

	#include linux/config.h and make the usual DEBUG settings
	available.

	Use the driver-model dev_xxx() macros for log output.

	Be much more explicit about the nature of errors, including
	configuration, interface, and altsetting numbers where
	appropriate.

	Log fatal problems as errors, non-fatal ones as warnings.

	Remove a #define'd constant that is already set in linux/usb.h.

	Fix some variables declared as pointer to char that really
	should be pointers to unsigned char.

	Replace a whole bunch of "out-of-memory" error messages with
	a single message.

	Wrap source lines that are longer than 80 columns (but not
	log output lines!).

	Clean up the logic for detecting errors when retrieving a
	configuration descriptor.

Apart from the log messages themselves, this introduces no functional
changes.

This adds some code that gadget drivers can call from
driver initialization, to simplify the "configure against
this hardware" step.


Add endpoint autoconfiguration for gadget drivers.

Endpoint selection is currently being done with conditional compilation.
That doesn't look nice, but more importantly it doesn't work well with
the model that some distributions won't be custom-matched to hardware.
Say, a PDA distro running on iPaq (pxa2xx_udc) or Axim (mq11xx_udc).

This code just makes it easier for drivers to match to hardware at
run-time.  It's a convenience function for something they could have
been doing already, but weren't.

adds two more vid/did and better packet error statistics.  Link
detection also has been added.

Here's where all those preceding autoconfig patches start
to fit together:  one gadget driver gets rid of almost all
the controller-specific #ifdeffery.

Two of the other gadget drivers can do the same thing,
and just as easily:  file storage, and serial.  (I'll
hope their maintainers do those changes though.)

The "ether.c" gadget driver is a lot more complicated to
do this way since it has to cope with some differences
by switching to alternate protocols (CDC Ethernet vs
a subset) and soon be able to handle RNDIS.  So that'll
be a while yet.


Gadget Zero learns to autoconfigure.

    - Gets rid of remaining controller-specific #ifdeffery.  Now
      hardware choices can be made at run time too (not just
      compile time).

    - Simplifies its use of the "DEBUG" CPP symbol.

    - Force device to report itself consistently as self-powered.

Correct kernel-doc comment with incorrect parameters documented

we (the german company Gude Analog und Digitalsysteme GmbH,
http://www.gude.info) have manufactored a USB<->RS232 adapter with
galvanic isolated RS232 Interface. Data is transmitted by optical
signals only.

The Product's name is "USB-RS232 OptoBridge".
We used the FTDI 233BM Chip with PID 0xE889 (VID 0x0403).
The Product will be released this Cebit 2004.

Could you please extend the ftdi_sio code with this PID.
You find a .diff file attached which I have tested with kernel 2.6.4

At http://ftdi-usb-sio.sourceforge.net/ I saw that you provide a patch
for 2.4.x kernels. Will our PID also find it's way in this back-ported
driver patch?

In the future (in the next 10 month), our company will have some more
Products using the FTDI Chip. The PID's FTDI already allocated for us
are: E888 to E88F and E808 to E80F


Thank you very much,
