USB: Fix up terminology in include files

2020-07-02T21:01:11Z

USB is a HOST/DEVICE protocol, as per the specification and all documentation. Fix up terms that are not applicable to make things match up with the terms used through the rest of the USB stack.

USB: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

2020-02-23T18:24:51Z

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

USB: Fallback to generic driver when specific driver fails

2020-02-12T19:01:55Z

If ->probe fails for a device specific driver, ask the driver core to reprobe us, after having flagged the device for the generic driver to be forced.

USB: Select better matching USB drivers when available

2020-02-12T19:01:55Z

Now that USB device drivers can reuse code from the generic USB device driver, we need to make sure that they get selected rather than the generic driver. Add an id_table and match vfunc to the usb_device_driver struct, which will get used to select a better matching driver at ->probe time. This is a similar mechanism to that used in the HID drivers, with the generic driver being selected unless there's a better matching one found in the registered drivers (see hid_generic_match() in drivers/hid/hid-generic.c).

USB: Make it possible to "subclass" usb_device_driver

2020-02-12T19:01:54Z

The kernel currenly has only 2 usb_device_drivers, one generic one, one that completely replaces the generic one to make USB devices usable over a network. Use the newly exported generic driver functions when a driver declares to want them run, in addition to its own code. This makes it possible to write drivers that extend the generic USB driver. Note that this patch is not enough for another driver to automatically get selected.

usb: add a HCD_DMA flag instead of guestimating DMA capabilities

2019-08-21T17:03:35Z

The usb core is the only major place in the kernel that checks for a non-NULL device dma_mask to see if a device is DMA capable. This is generally a bad idea, as all major busses always set up a DMA mask, even if the device is not DMA capable - in fact bus layers like PCI can't even know if a device is DMA capable at enumeration time. This leads to lots of workaround in HCD drivers, and also prevented us from setting up a DMA mask for platform devices by default last time we tried. Replace this guess with an explicit HCD_DMA that is set by drivers that appear to have DMA support.

usb: add a hcd_uses_dma helper

2019-08-15T13:18:05Z

The USB buffer allocation code is the only place in the usb core (and in fact the whole kernel) that uses is_device_dma_capable, while the URB mapping code uses the uses_dma flag in struct usb_bus. Switch the buffer allocation to use the uses_dma flag used by the rest of the USB code, and create a helper in hcd.h that checks this flag as well as the CONFIG_HAS_DMA to simplify the caller a bit.
