usb: remove third argument of usb_maxpacket()

2022-04-23T08:33:53Z

The third argument of usb_maxpacket(): in_out has been deprecated because it could be derived from the second argument (e.g. using usb_pipeout(pipe)). N.B. function usb_maxpacket() was made variadic to accommodate the transition from the old prototype with three arguments to the new one with only two arguments (so that no renaming is needed). The variadic argument is to be removed once all users of usb_maxpacket() get migrated.

usb-storage: Add quirk to defeat Kindle's automatic unload

2021-03-17T20:30:15Z

Matthias reports that the Amazon Kindle automatically removes its emulated media if it doesn't receive another SCSI command within about one second after a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE. It does so even when the host has sent a PREVENT MEDIUM REMOVAL command. The reason for this behavior isn't clear, although it's not hard to make some guesses. At any rate, the results can be unexpected for anyone who tries to access the Kindle in an unusual fashion, and in theory they can lead to data loss (for example, if one file is closed and synchronized while other files are still in the middle of being written). To avoid such problems, this patch creates a new usb-storage quirks flag telling the driver always to issue a REQUEST SENSE following a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command, and adds an unusual_devs entry for the Kindle with the flag set. This is sufficient to prevent the Kindle from doing its automatic unload, without interfering with proper operation. Another possible way to deal with this would be to increase the frequency of TEST UNIT READY polling that the kernel normally carries out for removable-media storage devices. However that would increase the overall load on the system and it is not as reliable, because the user can override the polling interval. Changing the driver's behavior is safer and has minimal overhead.

USB: storage: avoid use of uninitialized values in error path

2020-11-13T14:21:53Z

When usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist() returns with USB_STOR_XFER_ERROR, it returns without writing to its parameter *act_len. Further, the two callers of usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist(): usb_stor_bulk_srb() and usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sg(), use the passed variable partial without checking the return value. Hence, the uninitialized value of partial is then used in the further execution of those two functions. Clang-analyzer detects this potential control and data flow and warns: drivers/usb/storage/transport.c:469:40: warning: The right operand of '-' is a garbage value [clang-analyzer-core.UndefinedBinaryOperatorResult] scsi_set_resid(srb, scsi_bufflen(srb) - partial); ^ drivers/usb/storage/transport.c:495:15: warning: Assigned value is garbage or undefined [clang-analyzer-core.uninitialized.Assign] length_left -= partial; ^ When a transfer error occurs, the *act_len value is probably ignored by the higher layers. But it won't hurt to set it to a valid number, just in case. For the two early-return paths in usb_stor_bulk_transfer_sglist(), the amount of data transferred is 0. So if act_len is not NULL, set *act_len to 0 in those paths. That makes clang-analyzer happy.

scsi: core: Fix scsi_get/set_resid() interface

2019-11-09T02:34:49Z

struct scsi_cmnd cmd->req.resid_len which is returned and set respectively by the helper functions scsi_get_resid() and scsi_set_resid() is an unsigned int. Reflect this fact in the interface of these helper functions. Also fix compilation errors due to min() and max() type mismatch introduced by this change in scsi debug code, usb transport code and in the USB ENE card reader driver.

USB: storage: Remove redundant license text

2017-11-04T10:55:38Z

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/

2017-11-04T10:48:02Z

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.
