During the development of an USB device I found a bug in the handling of
Highspeed HID devices in the kernel.
What happened?
Highspeed HID devices are correctly recognized and enumerated by the
kernel. But even if usbhid kernel module is loaded, no HID reports are
received by the kernel.
The output of the hardware USB analyzer told me that the host doesn't
even poll for interrupt IN transfers (even the "interrupt in" USB
transfer are polled by the host).
After some debugging in hid-core.c I've found the reason.
In case of a highspeed device, the endpoint interval is re-calculated in
driver/usb/input/hid-core.c:
line 1669:
/* handle potential highspeed HID correctly */
interval = endpoint->bInterval;
if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
interval = 1 << (interval - 1);
Basically this calculation is correct (refer to USB 2.0 spec, 9.6.6).
This new calculated value of "interval" is used as input for
usb_fill_int_urb:
line 1685:
usb_fill_int_urb(hid->urbin, dev, pipe, hid->inbuf, 0,
hid_irq_in, hid, interval);
Unfortunately the same calculation as above is done a second time in
usb_fill_int_urb in the file include/linux/usb.h:
line 933:
if (dev->speed == USB_SPEED_HIGH)
urb->interval = 1 << (interval - 1);
else
urb->interval = interval;
This means, that if the endpoint descriptor (of a high speed device)
specifies e.g. bInterval = 7, the urb->interval gets the value:
hid-core.c: interval = 1 << (7-1) = 0x40 = 64
urb->interval = 1 << (interval -1) = 1 << (63) = integer overflow
Because of this the value of urb->interval is sometimes negative and is
rejected in core/urb.c:
line 353:
/* too small? */
if (urb->interval <= 0)
return -EINVAL;
The conclusion is, that the recalculaton of the interval (which is
necessary for highspeed) should not be made twice, because this is
simply wrong. ;-)
Re-calculation in usb_fill_int_urb makes more sense, because it is the
most general approach. So it would make sense to remove it from
hid-core.c.
Because in hid-core.c the interval variable is only used for calling
usb_fill_int_urb, it is no problem to remove the highspeed
re-calculation in this file.

This is a driver for the USB touchpad which can be found on post-February 2005
Apple PowerBooks.
This driver is derived from Johannes Berg's appletrackpad driver [1],
but it has been improved in some areas:
* appletouch is a full kernel driver, no userspace program is necessary
* appletouch can be interfaced with the synaptics X11 driver[2], in order
to have touchpad acceleration, scrolling, two/three finger tap, etc.
This driver has been tested by the readers of the 'debian-powerpc' mailing
list for a few weeks now and I believe it is now ready for inclusion into the
mainline kernel.
Credits go to Johannes Berg for reverse-engineering the touchpad protocol,
Frank Arnold for further improvements, and Alex Harper for some additional
information about the inner workings of the touchpad sensors.

29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."
Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."
Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

To recap: My new G4 powerbook has a bluetooth device that boots up in
what apppears to be a compatability mode - it looks exactly like an HID
keyboard/mouse device.
A special command sequence is sent to switch it into full bluetooth
mode. When this occurs the original HID device vanishes, and a new
(bluetooth HID) USB device appears on the bus with a different product
ID.
The original thread is here:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=12532263
The attached patch adds the device to the hid-core quirks so that
hid-core ignores it.

When trying to make the hiddev driver issue several Set_Report control
transfers to a custom device with 2.6.13-rc6, only the first transfer in a
row is carried out, while others immediately following it are silently
dropped.
This happens where hid_submit_report() (in hid-core.c) tests for
HID_CTRL_RUNNING, which seems to be still set because the first transfer is
not finished yet.
As a workaround, inserting a delay between the two calls to
ioctl(HIDIOCSREPORT) in userspace "solves" the problem. The
straightforward fix is to add a call to hid_wait_io() to the implementation
of HIDIOCSREPORT (in hiddev.c), just like for HIDIOCGREPORT. Works fine
for me.
Apparently, this issue has some history:

Fixes handling of multi-transaction reports for HID devices. New
function hid_size_buffers() that calculates the longest report
for each endpoint and stores the result in the hid_device object.
These lengths are used to allocate buffers that are large enough
to store any report on the endpoint. For compatibility, the minimum
size for an endpoint buffer set to HID_BUFFER_SIZE rather than the
known optimal case (the longest report length).
It fixes bug #3063 in bugzilla.

the older UIA-10 could be added but a binary file is required to be

Currently hid-core follows the same code path for input reports
regardless of whether they are a result of interrupt transfers or
control transfers. That leads to interrupt events erroneously being
reported to hiddev for regular control transfers.
Prior to 2.6.12 the problem was mitigated by the fact that
reporting to hiddev is supressed if the field value has not changed,
which is often the case. Said filtering was removed in 2.6.12-rc1 which
means any input reports fetched via control transfers result in hiddev
interrupt events. This behavior can quickly lead to a feedback loop
where a userspace app, in response to interrupt events, issues control
transfers which in turn create more interrupt events.
This patch prevents input reports that arrive via control transfers from
being reported to hiddev as interrupt events.
