On some systems, EHCI seems to be getting IRQs too early during driver
setup ... before the root hub is allocated, in particular, making trouble
for any code chasing down root hub pointers! In this case, it seems to
be safe to just ignore the root hub setting. Thanks to Rafael J. Wysocki
for getting this properly tested.

This teaches the EHCI driver to use the new driver model wakeup flags,
replacing the similar ones in the HCD glue. It also adds a workaround
for the current glitch whereby PCI init doesn't init the wakeup flags
from the PCI PM capabilities. (EHCI controllers don't worry about
legacy mode; the PCI PM capability would always do the job.)

When the ehci-hcd driver prepares a control URB, it tests for a
zero-length data stage by looking at the transfer_dma value instead of
the transfer_buffer_length. (In fact it does this even for non-control
URBs, which is an additional aspect of the same bug.)
However, under certain circumstances it's possible for transfer_dma to
be 0 while transfer_buffer_length is non-zero. This can happen when a
freshly allocated page (mapped to address 0 and marked Copy-On-Write,
but never written to) is used as the source buffer for an OUT transfer.
This patch (as598) fixes the problem.

The attached patch makes a cleanup of isp116x-hcd. Most of the volume of
the patch comes from 2 sources: moving the code around to get rid of a
few function prototypes and reworking register dumping functions/macros.
Among other things, switched over from using procfs to debugfs.
Cleanup. The following changes were made:
- Rework register dumping code so it can be used for dumping
to both syslog and debugfs.
- Switch from procfs to debugfs..
- Die gracefully on Unrecoverable Error interrupt.
- Fix memory leak in isp116x_urb_enqueue(), if HC happens to
die in a narrow time window.
- Fix a 'sparce' warning (unnecessary cast).
- Report Devices Removable for root hub ports by default
(was Devices Permanently Attached).
- Move bus suspend/resume functions down in code to get rid of
a few function prototypes.
- A number of one-line cleanups.
- Add an entry to MAINTAINERS.

Until now the isp116x-hcd had no support to reinitialize the HC on

This patch closes the IRQ race and makes various other OHCI & EHCI code
path safer vs. suspend/resume.
I've been able to (finally !) successfully suspend and resume various
Mac models, with or without USB mouse plugged, or plugging while asleep,
or unplugging while asleep etc... all without a crash.
Alan, please verify the UHCI bit I did, I only verified that it builds.
It's very simple so I wouldn't expect any issue there. If you aren't
confident, then just drop the hunks that change uhci-hcd.c
I also made the patch a little bit more "safer" by making sure the store
to the interrupt register that disables interrupts is not posted before
I set the flag and drop the spinlock.
Without this patch, you cannot reliably sleep/wakeup any recent Mac, and
I suspect PCs have some more sneaky issues too (they don't frankly crash
with machine checks because x86 tend to silently swallow PCI errors but
that won't last afaik, at least PCI Express will blow up in those
situations, but the USB code may still misbehave).

Moving the PCI-specific parts of the EHCI driver into their own file
created a few issues ... notably on resume paths which (like swsusp)
require re-initializing the controller. This patch:
- Splits the EHCI startup code into run-once HCD setup code and
separate "init the hardware" reinit code. (That reinit code is
a superset of the "early usb handoff" code.)
- Then it makes the PCI init code run both, and the resume code only
run the reinit code.
- It also removes needless pci wrappers around EHCI start/stop methods.
- Removes a byteswap issue that would be seen on big-endian hardware.
The HCD glue still doesn't actually provide a good way to do all this
run-one init stuff in one place though.

few releases (as usbcore, PCI, pmcore, and other components evolved):
- Removes suspend and resume recursion from the EHCI driver, getting

- Updates the wakeup mechanism to work again; there's a newish usbcore

- Provide simpler tests for "do we need to restart from scratch", to
address another case where PCI Vaux was lost. (In this case it was
restoring a swsusp snapshot, but there could be others.)
Un-exports a symbol that was temporarily exported.

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of

by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.
In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real

adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts

The uhci-hcd driver is fairly lax about the way it handles isochronous
transfers. This patch (as579) improves it in three respects:
TDs for a new URB aren't added to the schedule until all of
them have been allocated. This way there's no risk of the
controller executing some of them when an allocation fails.
TDs for an unlinked URB are removed from the schedule as soon
as the URB is unlinked, rather than waiting until the URB is
given back. This way there's no risk of the controller still
executing a TD after the URB completes.
The urb->error_count values are now reported correctly.
Although since they aren't used in any drivers except for
debug messages in the system log, probably nobody cares.

This patch (as580) is perhaps the only result from the long discussion I
had with David about his changes to the root-hub suspend/resume code. It
renames the hub_suspend and hub_resume methods in struct usb_hcd to
bus_suspend and bus_resume. These are more descriptive names, since the
methods really do suspend or resume an entire USB bus, and less likely to
be confused with the hub_suspend and hub_resume routines in hub.c.
It also takes David's advice about removing the layer of bus glue, where
those methods are called. And it implements a related change that David

The PCI "early usb handoff" quirk logic didn't work like "ohci-hcd" ...
This patch makes it do so by:
- Resetting the controller after kicking BIOS off, matching the
normal "chip in hardware reset" startup mode;
- Reporting any BIOS that borks this simple handoff; it's likely
got a few other surprises for us too.
- Ignoring that handoff on HPPA;

This simplifies the OHCI root hub suspend logic:
- Uses new usbcore root hub calls to make autosuspend work again:
* Uses a newish usbcore root hub wakeup mechanism,
making requests to khubd not keventd.
* Uses an even newer sibling suspend hook.
- Expect someone always made usbcore call ohci_hub_suspend() before bus
glue fires; and that ohci_hub_resume() is only called after that bus
glue ran. Previously, only CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND promised those things.
(Includes updates to PCI and OMAP bus glue.)
- Handle a not-noticed-before special case during resume from one of
the swsusp snapshots when using "usb-handoff": the controller isn't
left in RESET state. (A bug to fix in the usb-handoff code...)
Also cleans up a minor debug printk glitch, and switches an mdelay over

This patch removes the extra usb_suspend_device() parameter. The original
reason to pass that parameter was so that this routine could suspend any
active children. A previous patch removed that functionality ... leaving
no reason to pass the parameter. A close analogy is pci_set_power_state,
which doesn't need a pm_message_t either.
On the internal code path that comes through the driver model, the parameter
is now used to distinguish cases where USB devices need to "freeze" but not
suspend. It also checks for an error case that's accessible through sysfs:
attempting to suspend a device before its interfaces (or for hubs, ports).
