USB: serial: use tty_port_register_device()

2018-05-17T09:22:00+00:00

We already have the tty port when probing a usb-serial port so use tty_port_register_device() directly instead of tty_port_install() later to set up the port link. This is a step towards enabling serdev for usb-serial (but we need to determine how to handle hotplugging first). Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold

USB: serial: Remove redundant license text

2017-11-04T10:55:38+00:00

Now that the SPDX tag is in all USB files, that identifies the license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all. This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never needed. No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

USB: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/usb/

2017-11-04T10:48:02+00:00

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to audit the kernel tree for correct licenses. Update the drivers/usb/ and include/linux/usb* files with the correct SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

USB: serial: clean up bus probe error handling

2015-02-26T16:13:05+00:00

Clean up bus probe error handling by separating success and error paths. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold

USB: serial: fix port attribute-creation race

2015-02-26T16:12:46+00:00

Fix attribute-creation race with userspace by using the port device groups field to create the port attributes. Also use %u when printing the port number, which is unsigned, even though we do not currently support more than 128 ports per device.

USB: serial: fix tty-device error handling at probe

2015-02-26T16:12:35+00:00

Add missing error handling when registering the tty device at port probe. This avoids trying to remove an uninitialised character device when the port device is removed.

USB: serial: fix potential use-after-free after failed probe

2015-02-26T16:08:36+00:00

Fix return value in probe error path, which could end up returning success (0) on errors. This could in turn lead to use-after-free or double free (e.g. in port_remove) when the port device is removed.

USB: serial: fix potential runtime pm imbalance at device remove

2014-05-27T22:04:08+00:00

Only call usb_autopm_put_interface() if the corresponding usb_autopm_get_interface() was successful. This prevents a potential runtime PM counter imbalance should usb_autopm_get_interface() fail. Note that the USB PM usage counter is reset when the interface is unbound, but that the runtime PM counter may be left unbalanced. Also add comment on why we don't need to worry about racing resume/suspend on autopm_get failures.

usb: core: allow a reference device for new_id

2014-01-11T00:54:35+00:00

Often, usb drivers need some driver_info to get a device to work. To have access to driver_info when using new_id, allow to pass a reference vendor:product tuple from which new_id will inherit driver_info. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
