Some devices, such as the Winbond Electronics Corp. Virtual Com Port (Vendor=0416, ProdId=5011), lockup when usb_set_interface() or usb_clear_halt() are called. This device has only a single altsetting, so it should not be necessary to call usb_set_interface(). Signed-off-by: Jeremy Figgins <kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- An alternative fix was submitted previously as: USB: usblp: add USBLP_QUIRK_NO_SETF_INTF flag and this superscedes that patch. This is a different approach, so I submitted it as a new patch, rather than adding a v2 to the first one; I hope that was the correct thing to do in this case. drivers/usb/class/usblp.c | 19 +++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/usb/class/usblp.c b/drivers/usb/class/usblp.c index 134dc2005ce9..c9f6e9758288 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/class/usblp.c +++ b/drivers/usb/class/usblp.c @@ -1329,14 +1329,17 @@ static int usblp_set_protocol(struct usblp *usblp, int protocol) if (protocol < USBLP_FIRST_PROTOCOL || protocol > USBLP_LAST_PROTOCOL) return -EINVAL; - alts = usblp->protocol[protocol].alt_setting; - if (alts < 0) - return -EINVAL; - r = usb_set_interface(usblp->dev, usblp->ifnum, alts); - if (r < 0) { - printk(KERN_ERR "usblp: can't set desired altsetting %d on interface %d\n", - alts, usblp->ifnum); - return r; + /* Don't unnecessarily set the interface if there's a single alt. */ + if (usblp->intf->num_altsetting > 1) { + alts = usblp->protocol[protocol].alt_setting; + if (alts < 0) + return -EINVAL; + r = usb_set_interface(usblp->dev, usblp->ifnum, alts); + if (r < 0) { + printk(KERN_ERR "usblp: can't set desired altsetting %d on interface %d\n", + alts, usblp->ifnum); + return r; + } } usblp->bidir = (usblp->protocol[protocol].epread != NULL); -- 2.29.0
