[PATCH 3.16 183/245] USB: serial: opticon: fix control-message timeouts

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

 



3.16.83-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 5e28055f340275a8616eee88ef19186631b4d136 upstream.

The driver was issuing synchronous uninterruptible control requests
without using a timeout. This could lead to the driver hanging
on open() or tiocmset() 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.
