usb/core/devio.c: Don't reject control message to endpoint with wrong direction bit

2013-10-05T14:06:54Z

commit 831abf76643555a99b80a3b54adfa7e4fa0a3259 upstream. Trying to read data from the Pegasus Technologies NoteTaker (0e20:0101) [1] with the Windows App (EasyNote) works natively but fails when Windows is running under KVM (and the USB device handed to KVM). The reason is a USB control message usb 4-2.2: control urb: bRequestType=22 bRequest=09 wValue=0200 wIndex=0001 wLength=0008 This goes to endpoint address 0x01 (wIndex); however, endpoint address 0x01 does not exist. There is an endpoint 0x81 though (same number, but other direction); the app may have meant that endpoint instead. The kernel thus rejects the IO and thus we see the failure. Apparently, Linux is more strict here than Windows ... we can't change the Win app easily, so that's a problem. It seems that the Win app/driver is buggy here and the driver does not behave fully according to the USB HID class spec that it claims to belong to. The device seems to happily deal with that though (and seems to not really care about this value much). So the question is whether the Linux kernel should filter here. Rejecting has the risk that somewhat non-compliant userspace apps/ drivers (most likely in a virtual machine) are prevented from working. Not rejecting has the risk of confusing an overly sensitive device with such a transfer. Given the fact that Windows does not filter it makes this risk rather small though. The patch makes the kernel more tolerant: If the endpoint address in wIndex does not exist, but an endpoint with toggled direction bit does, it will let the transfer through. (It does NOT change the message.) With attached patch, the app in Windows in KVM works. usb 4-2.2: check_ctrlrecip: process 13073 (qemu-kvm) requesting ep 01 but needs 81 I suspect this will mostly affect apps in virtual environments; as on Linux the apps would have been adapted to the stricter handling of the kernel. I have done that for mine[2]. [1] http://www.pegatech.com/ [2] https://sourceforge.net/projects/notetakerpen/ Signed-off-by: Kurt Garloff Acked-by: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

usbfs: Always allow ctrl requests with USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT on the ctrl ep

2013-05-08T02:51:53Z

commit 1361bf4b9f9ef45e628a5b89e0fd9bedfdcb7104 upstream. When usbfs receives a ctrl-request from userspace it calls check_ctrlrecip, which for a request with USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT tries to map this to an interface to see if this interface is claimed, except for ctrl-requests with a type of USB_TYPE_VENDOR. When trying to use this device: http://www.akaipro.com/eiepro redirected to a Windows vm running on qemu on top of Linux. The windows driver makes a ctrl-req with USB_TYPE_CLASS and USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT with index 0, and the mapping of the endpoint (0) to the interface fails since ep 0 is the ctrl endpoint and thus never is part of an interface. This patch fixes this ctrl-req failing by skipping the checkintf call for USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT ctrl-reqs on the ctrl endpoint.

module_param: make bool parameters really bool (drivers & misc)

2012-01-12T23:02:20Z

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy trick. It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version. Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell

USB: make the usbfs memory limit configurable

2011-11-18T19:09:07Z

The 16-MB global limit on memory used by usbfs isn't suitable for all people. It's a reasonable default, but there are applications (especially for SuperSpeed devices) that need a lot more. This patch (as1498) creates a writable module parameter for usbcore to control the global limit. The default is still 16 MB, but users can change it at runtime, even after usbcore has been loaded. As a special case, setting the value to 0 is treated the same as the hard limit of 2047 MB. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

USB: change the memory limits in usbfs URB submission

2011-11-18T19:09:07Z

For a long time people have complained about the limitations imposed by usbfs. URBs coming from userspace are not allowed to have transfer buffers larger than a more-or-less arbitrary maximum. While it is generally a good idea to avoid large transfer buffers (because the data has to be bounced to/from a contiguous kernel-space buffer), it's not the kernel's job to enforce such limits. Programs should be allowed to submit URBs as large as they like; if there isn't sufficient contiguous memory available then the submission will fail with a simple ENOMEM error. On the other hand, we would like to prevent programs from submitting a lot of small URBs and using up all the DMA-able kernel memory. To that end, this patch (as1497) replaces the old limits on individual transfer buffers with a single global limit on the total amount of memory in use by usbfs. The global limit is set to 16 MB as a nice compromise value: not too big, but large enough to hold about 300 ms of data for high-speed transfers.

user namespace: usb: make usb urbs user namespace aware (v2)

2011-09-29T20:13:08Z

Add to the dev_state and alloc_async structures the user namespace corresponding to the uid and euid. Pass these to kill_pid_info_as_uid(), which can then implement a proper, user-namespace-aware uid check. Changelog: Sep 20: Per Oleg's suggestion: Instead of caching and passing user namespace, uid, and euid each separately, pass a struct cred. Sep 26: Address Alan Stern's comments: don't define a struct cred at usbdev_open(), and take and put a cred at async_completed() to ensure it lasts for the duration of kill_pid_info_as_cred().
