[PATCH] xhci: Avoid infinite loop when sg urb requires too many trbs

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

 



Currently prepare_ring() returns -ENOMEM if the urb won't fit into a
single ring segment.  usb_sg_wait() treats this error as a temporary
condition and will keep retrying until something else goes wrong.

The number of retries should be limited in usb_sg_wait(), but also
prepare_ring() should not return an error code that suggests it might
be worth retrying.  Change it to -EINVAL.

Any smoothly functioning technology is indistinguishable from a rigged demo.
