xhci: Avoid NULL pointer deref when host dies.

2013-08-04T07:43:33+00:00

commit 203a86613fb3bf2767335659513fa98563a3eb71 upstream. When the host controller fails to respond to an Enable Slot command, and the host fails to respond to the register write to abort the command ring, the xHCI driver will assume the host is dead, and call usb_hc_died(). The USB device's slot_id is still set to zero, and the pointer stored at xhci->devs[0] will always be NULL. The call to xhci_check_args in xhci_free_dev should have caught the NULL virt_dev pointer. However, xhci_free_dev is designed to free the xhci_virt_device structures, even if the host is dead, so that we don't leak kernel memory. xhci_free_dev checks the return value from the generic xhci_check_args function. If the return value is -ENODEV, it carries on trying to free the virtual device. The issue is that xhci_check_args looks at the host controller state before it looks at the xhci_virt_device pointer. It will return -ENIVAL because the host is dead, and xhci_free_dev will ignore the return value, and happily dereference the NULL xhci_virt_device pointer. The fix is to make sure that xhci_check_args checks the xhci_virt_device pointer before it checks the host state. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1203453 for further details. This patch doesn't solve the underlying issue, but will ensure we don't see any more NULL pointer dereferences because of the issue. This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.1, that contain the commit 7bd89b4017f46a9b92853940fd9771319acb578a "xhci: Don't submit commands or URBs to halted hosts."

xhci: fix null pointer dereference on ring_doorbell_for_active_rings

commit d66eaf9f89502971fddcb0de550b01fa6f409d83 upstream. in some cases where device is attched to xhci port and do not responding, for example ath9k_htc with stalled firmware, kernel will crash on ring_doorbell_for_active_rings.

USB: revert periodic scheduling bugfix

2013-06-13T16:25:04+00:00

commit fdc03438f53a00294ed9939eb3a1f6db6f3d8963 upstream. This patch reverts commit 3e619d04159be54b3daa0b7036b0ce9e067f4b5d (USB: EHCI: fix bug in scheduling periodic split transfers). The commit was valid -- it fixed a real bug -- but the periodic scheduler in ehci-hcd is in such bad shape (especially the part that handles split transactions) that fixing one bug is very likely to cause another to surface. That's what happened in this case; the result was choppy and noisy playback on certain 24-bit audio devices. The only real fix will be to rewrite this entire section of code. My next project... This fixes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1136110. Thanks to Tim Richardson for extra testing and feedback, and to Joseph Salisbury and Tyson Tan for tracking down the original source of the problem.

USB: UHCI: fix for suspend of virtual HP controller

2013-06-07T19:46:35+00:00

commit 997ff893603c6455da4c5e26ba1d0f81adfecdfc upstream. HP's virtual UHCI host controller takes a long time to suspend (several hundred microseconds), even when no devices are attached. This provokes a warning message from uhci-hcd in the auto-stop case. To prevent this from happening, this patch adds a test to avoid performing an auto-stop when the wait_for_hp quirk flag is set. The controller will still suspend through the normal runtime PM mechanism. And since that pathway includes a 1-ms delay, the slowness of the virtual hardware won't matter.

usb: xhci: Fix TRB transfer length macro used for Event TRB.

2013-04-05T17:16:37+00:00

commit 1c11a172cb30492f5f6a82c6e118fdcd9946c34f upstream. Use proper macro while extracting TRB transfer length from Transfer event TRBs. Adding a macro EVENT_TRB_LEN (bits 0:23) for the same, and use it instead of TRB_LEN (bits 0:16) in case of event TRBs.

USB: xhci - fix bit definitions for IMAN register

2013-03-28T19:06:03+00:00

commit f8264340e694604863255cc0276491d17c402390 upstream. According to XHCI specification (5.5.2.1) the IP is bit 0 and IE is bit 1 of IMAN register. Previously their definitions were reversed. Even though there are no ill effects being observed from the swapped definitions (because IMAN_IP is RW1C and in legacy PCI case we come in with it already set to 1 so it was clearing itself even though we were setting IMAN_IE instead of IMAN_IP), we should still correct the values. This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 2.6.36, that contain the commit 4e833c0b87a30798e67f06120cecebef6ee9644c "xhci: don't re-enable IE constantly".

USB: EHCI: don't check DMA values in QH overlays

2013-03-20T19:58:51+00:00

commit feca7746d5d9e84b105a613b7f3b6ad00d327372 upstream. This patch (as1661) fixes a rather obscure bug in ehci-hcd. In a couple of places, the driver compares the DMA address stored in a QH's overlay region with the address of a particular qTD, in order to see whether that qTD is the one currently being processed by the hardware. (If it is then the status in the QH's overlay region is more up-to-date than the status in the qTD, and if it isn't then the overlay's value needs to be adjusted when the QH is added back to the active schedule.) However, DMA address in the overlay region isn't always valid. It sometimes will contain a stale value, which may happen by coincidence to be equal to a qTD's DMA address. Instead of checking the DMA address, we should check whether the overlay region is active and valid. The patch tests the ACTIVE bit in the overlay, and clears this bit when the overlay becomes invalid (which happens when the currently-executing URB is unlinked).
