If the hardware never responds to the stop endpoint command, the URBs will never be completed, and we might hang the USB subsystem. The original watchdog timer is used to watch if one stop endpoint command is timeout, if timeout, then the watchdog timer will set XHCI_STATE_DYING, try to halt the xHCI host, and give back all pending URBs. But now we already have one command timer to control command timeout, thus we can also use the command timer to watch the stop endpoint command, instead of one duplicate watchdog timer which need to be removed. Meanwhile we don't need the 'stop_cmds_pending' flag to identy if this is the last stop endpoint command of one endpoint. Since we can make sure we only set one stop endpoint command for one endpoint by 'EP_HALT_PENDING' flag in xhci_urb_dequeue() function. Thus remove this flag. We also need to clean up the command queue before trying to halt the xHCI host in xhci_stop_endpoint_command_timeout() function.
This isn't a bad idea. There are anyway some corner cases and details that need to be checked, such as suspend (which will clear the command queue), module unload and abrupt host removal (like pci hotplug removal of host controller) we need to make sure we can trust the command timer to always return the canceled URB -Mathias -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
