[PATCH 4.9 081/102] media: usbtv: fix control-message timeouts

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

 



From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 536f561d871c5781bc33d26d415685211b94032e upstream.

The driver was issuing synchronous uninterruptible control requests
without using a timeout. This could lead to the driver hanging on
various user requests due to a malfunctioning (or malicious) device
until the device is physically disconnected.

The USB upper limit of five seconds per request should be more than
enough.

Fixes: f3d27f34fdd7 ("[media] usbtv: Add driver for Fushicai USBTV007 video frame grabber")
Fixes: c53a846c48f2 ("[media] usbtv: add video controls")
