Some modems now use the Android Debug Bridge to provide a debugging interface, and some phones can also export serial ports managed by the "option" driver. The ADB daemon running in userspace tries to use USB interfaces with bDeviceClass=0xFF, bDeviceSubClass=0x42, bDeviceProtocol=1 Prevent the option driver from binding to those interfaces, as they will not be serial ports. This can fix issues like: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=781256 Signed-off-by: Romain Izard <romain.izard.pro@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/usb/serial/option.c | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/usb/serial/option.c b/drivers/usb/serial/option.c index 664e61f16b6a..f98943a57ff0 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/serial/option.c +++ b/drivers/usb/serial/option.c @@ -1987,6 +1987,12 @@ static int option_probe(struct usb_serial *serial, if (iface_desc->bInterfaceClass == USB_CLASS_MASS_STORAGE) return -ENODEV; + /* Do not bind Android Debug Bridge interfaces */ + if (iface_desc->bInterfaceClass == USB_CLASS_VENDOR_SPEC && + iface_desc->bInterfaceSubClass == 0x42 && + iface_desc->bInterfaceProtocol == 1) + return -ENODEV; + /* * Don't bind reserved interfaces (like network ones) which often have * the same class/subclass/protocol as the serial interfaces.
