This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: cdc-wdm: avoid hanging on zero length reads to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-next branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 8dd5cd5395b90070d98149d0a94e5981a74cd2ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Bj=C3=B8rn=20Mork?= <bjorn@xxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2013 14:07:24 +0100 Subject: usb: cdc-wdm: avoid hanging on zero length reads MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit commit 73e06865ead1 ("USB: cdc-wdm: support back-to-back USB_CDC_NOTIFY_RESPONSE_AVAILABLE notifications") implemented queued response handling. This added a new requirement: The read urb must be resubmitted every time we clear the WDM_READ flag if the response counter indicates that the device is waiting for a read. Fix by factoring out the code handling the WMD_READ clearing and possible urb submission, calling it everywhere we clear the flag. Without this fix, the driver ends up in a state where the read urb is inactive, but the response counter is positive after a zero length read. This prevents the read urb from ever being submitted again and the driver appears to be hanging.
