Hi Lauri, There are a bunch of issues with this patch. 1) There is no way we're going to add a retry loop to usb_control_msg(). We might add it to a driver, but probably we would suspect that the hardware is bad. Maybe the cable is faulty? Or I could be wrong on that... 2) You would need to send this to a different list. Use ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl to find out who. The linux-usb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx is the main USB list. 3) The patch doesn't apply. Read the first paragraph of Documentation/process/email-clients.rst 4) The subject needs to be formatted slightly differently. [PATCH] USB: HID: Fix timeout by adding retry loop 5) The commit message should be more clear what was affected. Don't start the commit message in the middle of a sentence. regards, dan carpenter
