Hi Benjamin, Here is a v2 of my series to fix issues with hidpp_connect_event() running while restarting IO, which now also fixes the issues you mentioned with potentially missing connect events. This series is best explained by a brief sketch of how probe() looks at the end of the series (1): Prep work: 1. All code depending on a device being in connected state is moved to the hidpp_connect_event() workqueue item 2. hidpp_connect_event() now checks the connected state itself by checking that hidpp_root_get_protocol_version() succeeds, instead of relying on possibly stale (racy) data in struct hidpp_device With this in place the new probe() sequence looks like this: 1. enable_connect_event flag starts at 0, this filters out / ignores any connect-events in hidpp_raw_hidpp_event() avoiding hidpp_connect_event() getting queued before the IO restart 2. IO is started with connect-mask = 0 this avoids hid-input and hidraw connecting while probe() is setting hdev->name and hdev->uniq 3. Name and serialnr are retrieved and stored in hdev 4. IO is fully restarted (including hw_open + io_start, not just hw_start) with the actual connect-mask. 5. enable_connect_event atomic_t is set to 1 to enable processing of connect events. 6. hidpp_connect_event() is queued + flushed to query the connected state and do the connect work if the device is connected. 7. probe() now ends with: /* * This relies on logi_dj_ll_close() being a no-op so that * DJ connection events will still be received. */ hid_hw_close(hdev); Since on restarting IO it now is fully restarted so the hid_hw_open() there needs to be balanced. This series now obviously is no longer 6.6 material, instead I hope we can get this rework (and IMHO nice cleanup) into 6.7 . Regards, Hans 1) For reviewing you may also want to apply the entire series and look at the end result to help you understand why various intermediate steps are taken.
