If user specifies that USB autosuspend must be disabled by module parameter "usbcore.autosuspend=-1" then we must prevent autosuspend of USB hub devices as well. commit 596d789a211d introduced in v3.8 changed the original behaivour and stopped respecting the usbcore.autosuspend parameter for hubs. Fixes: 596d789a211d "USB: set hub's default autosuspend delay as 0" Signed-off-by: Roger Quadros <rogerq@xxxxxx> Tested-by: Michael Welling <mwelling@xxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/usb/core/hub.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/usb/core/hub.c +++ b/drivers/usb/core/hub.c @@ -1699,8 +1699,12 @@ static int hub_probe(struct usb_interfac * - Change autosuspend delay of hub can avoid unnecessary auto * suspend timer for hub, also may decrease power consumption * of USB bus. + * + * - If user has indicated to prevent autosuspend by passing + * usbcore.autosuspend = -1 then keep autosuspend disabled. */ - pm_runtime_set_autosuspend_delay(&hdev->dev, 0); + if (hdev->dev.power.autosuspend_delay >= 0) + pm_runtime_set_autosuspend_delay(&hdev->dev, 0); /* * Hubs have proper suspend/resume support, except for root hubs Patches currently in stable-queue which might be from rogerq@xxxxxx are queue-3.10/usb-hub-prevent-hub-autosuspend-if-usbcore.autosuspend-is-1.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
