[added to the 3.18 stable tree] usb: misc: usbtest: add fix for driver hang

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Lu Baolu <baolu.lu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.18 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit 539587511835ea12d8daa444cbed766cf2bc3612 ]

In sg_timeout(), req->status is set to "-ETIMEDOUT" before calling
into usb_sg_cancel(). usb_sg_cancel() will do nothing and return
directly if req->status has been set to a non-zero value. This will
cause driver hang whenever transfer time out is triggered.

This patch fixes this issue. It could be backported to stable kernel
with version later than v3.15.
