Thanks for fixing this. How about this, then? --- Passing a pointer into the code segment to DMA API is invalid. Most of the time, you just DMA garbage into the device, but sometimes the controller gets a bad address and then you see this: usbcore: registered new interface driver prism54usb usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 usb 3-1: not running at top speed; connect to a high speed hub usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: host system error, PCI problems? uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: host controller halted, very bad! uhci_hcd 0000:00:1d.2: HC died; cleaning up p54usb: reset failed! prism54usb: probe of 3-1:1.0 failed with error -110 See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242638 Signed-off-by: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@xxxxxxxxxx> --- linux-2.6.23-0.15.rc0.git1.fc8/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211/p54/prism54usb.c 2007-07-16 20:16:00.000000000 -0700 +++ linux-2.6.23-0.15.rc0.git1.fc8-p54u/drivers/net/wireless/mac80211/p54/prism54usb.c 2007-07-19 21:46:41.000000000 -0700 @@ -375,22 +375,24 @@ static int p54u_upload_firmware_3887(str struct x2_header *hdr; unsigned long timeout; - err = p54u_bulk_msg(priv, P54U_PIPE_DATA, start_string, 4); - if (err) { - printk(KERN_ERR "p54usb: reset failed!\n"); - return err; - } - tmp = buf = kmalloc(P54U_FW_BLOCK, GFP_KERNEL); if (!buf) { printk(KERN_ERR "p54usb: cannot allocate firmware upload buffer!\n"); - return -ENOMEM; + err = -ENOMEM; + goto err_bufalloc; + } + + memcpy(buf, start_string, 4); + err = p54u_bulk_msg(priv, P54U_PIPE_DATA, buf, 4); + if (err) { + printk(KERN_ERR "p54usb: reset failed!
