[PATCH] Re: [linux-usb-devel] unending timeouts (patch for 2.5.22 oops)
Ah, so both of the "hcd-ized" UHCI drivers have a common bug: they've got logic to look at the USB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag and block unless it's clear ... but the hcd framework is already handling the synchronous behavior, so that's wrong. Try to repeat that with the patch I've attached, which rips out that duplicated code ... and so should at least get rid of that oops, even if it doesn't entirely fix the timeout issue. (Or: try with either the OHCI driver, or with the EHCI driver through a USB 2.0 hub, if you have appropriate hardware.) - Dave p.s. Disclaimer about this patch: all it does is rip out code and make it compile without warnings, but I've not tested it otherwise. There's a possiblity it'll uncover latent issues on the other code path, but then that's exactly why we only want one unlink code path inside the HCDs! So Greg, please merge anyway ...
