<content type='text'>
If three or more wireless devices are connected and two of them
disconnect between 1-3 seconds apart, it can cause the HWA to disconnect
the remaining devices due to failing to see a DN_Alive message from
them.  This happens because when the HWA detects that the first device
is gone, it will attempt to rekey the remaining devices.  If one of the
devices is not responding because it has also been disconnected but not
yet timed out, the synchronous rekey operation running on the wusbd
workqueue can block for up to 5 seconds.  This will prevent the
KEEPALIVE timer from running and DN_Alive messages from being processed
because they are processed by the same workqueue.  This patch moves the
rekey operation to a separate workqueue since it is the only wusb work
item that needs to communicate directly with wireless devices.  The rest
of the WUSB work items either perform no device IO or communicate
directly with the host controller and should not be blocked out by a
non-responding wireless device.

Use USB_CTRL_SET_TIMEOUT and USB_CTRL_GET_TIMEOUT for USB control
messages instead of an arbitrary 1s timeout value.  This is particularly
useful for WUSB since in the worst case RF scanario, a WUSB device can
be unresponsive for up to 4s and still be connected.

<title>usb: wusbcore: fix deadlock in wusbhc_gtk_rekey</title>

<id>urn:sha1:471e42ad148c05d091219096726d751684ebf918</id>
<content type='text'>
When multiple wireless USB devices are connected and one of the devices
disconnects, the host will distribute a new group key to the remaining
devicese using wusbhc_gtk_rekey.  wusbhc_gtk_rekey takes the
wusbhc-&gt;mutex and holds it while it submits a URB to set the new key.
This causes a deadlock in wa_urb_enqueue when it calls a device lookup
helper function that takes the same lock.

This patch changes wusbhc_gtk_rekey to submit a work item to set the GTK
so that the URB is submitted without holding wusbhc-&gt;mutex.

<title>USB: wusb: Use kcalloc instead of kzalloc to allocate array</title>

The advantage of kcalloc is, that will prevent integer overflows which could
result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and it is also
a bit nicer to read.

The semantic patch that makes this change is available

<title>usb: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE where needed</title>

<content type='text'>
With module.h being implicitly everywhere via device.h, the absence
of explicitly including something for EXPORT_SYMBOL went unnoticed.
Since we are heading to fix things up and clean module.h from the
device.h file, we need to explicitly include these files now.

Use the lightweight version of the header that has just THIS_MODULE
and EXPORT_SYMBOL variants.

<title>include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/commit/?id=5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05'/>
<id>urn:sha1:5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05</id>
<content type='text'>
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -&gt; slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
