USB: gamin_gps: Fix for data transfer problems in native mode

2011-06-03T01:34:23Z

commit b4026c4584cd70858d4d3450abfb1cd0714d4f32 upstream. This patch fixes a problem where data received from the gps is sometimes transferred incompletely to the serial port. If used in native mode now all data received via the bulk queue will be forwarded to the serial port. Signed-off-by: Hermann Kneissel Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

drivers/usb: Remove unnecessary return's from void functions

2010-08-10T12:25:42Z

Greg prefers this to go through the trivial tree. http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/6/24/1 There are about 2500 void functions in drivers/usb Only a few used return; at end of function. Standardize them a bit. Moved a statement down a line in drivers/usb/host/u132-hcd.c Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

USB: tty: Prune uses of tty_request_room in the USB layer

2010-03-02T22:55:12Z

We have lots of callers that do not need to do this in the first place. Remove the calls as they both cost CPU and for big buffers can mess up the multi-page allocation avoidance. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB serial: make USB device id constant

2010-03-02T22:54:16Z

The id_table field of the struct usb_device_id is constant in so it is worth to make the initialization data also constant. The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @r@ disable decl_init,const_decl_init; identifier I1, I2, x; @@ struct I1 { ... const struct I2 *x; ... }; @s@ identifier r.I1, y; identifier r.x, E; @@ struct I1 y = { .x = E, }; @c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ const struct I2 E[] = ... ; @depends on !c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ + const struct I2 E[] = ...; // Signed-off-by: Németh Márton Cc: Julia Lawall Cc: cocci@diku.dk Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: serial: fix assumption that throttle/unthrottle cannot sleep

2009-10-09T20:52:09Z

many serial subdrivers are clearly written as if throttle/unthrottle cannot sleep. This leads to unneeded atomic submissions. This patch converts affected drivers in a way to makes very clear that throttle/unthrottle can sleep. Thus future misdesigns can be avoided and efficiency and reliability improved. This removes any such assumption using GFP_KERNEL and spin_lock_irq() Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: USB does not need the filp argument in the drivers

2009-09-19T20:13:26Z

And indeed none of them use it. Clean this up as it will make moving to a standard open method rather easier. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: usb-serial: replace shutdown with disconnect, release

2009-06-16T04:44:47Z

This patch (as1254) splits up the shutdown method of usb_serial_driver into a disconnect and a release method. The problem is that the usb-serial core was calling shutdown during disconnect handling, but drivers didn't expect it to be called until after all the open file references had been closed. The result was an oops when the close method tried to use memory that had been deallocated by shutdown. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: garmin_gps: removes usb_reset_device from garmin_close

2009-06-16T04:44:44Z

The following patch removes the call to usb_reset_device which may occur when closing the driver by implementing a new session initialization code based on the method used by gpsbabel. The patch is against linux-2.6.30-rc3-git1. Signed-off-by: Hermann Kneissel herkne@users.sourceforge.net Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

tty: Bring the usb tty port structure into more use

2009-06-11T15:50:56Z

This allows us to clean stuff up, but is probably also going to cause some app breakage with buggy apps as we now implement proper POSIX behaviour for USB ports matching all the other ports. This does also mean other apps that break on USB will now work properly. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

USB: removal of tty->low_latency hack dating back to the old serial code

2009-04-23T21:15:29Z

This removes tty->low_latency from all USB serial drivers that push data into the tty layer at hard interrupt context. It's no longer needed and actually harmful. Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum Cc: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
