Make sure that the amount of data the xHC says was transmitted is less
than or equal to the size of the requested transfer buffer. Before, if
the host controller erroneously reported that the number of bytes
untransferred was bigger than the buffer in the URB, urb->actual_length
could be set to a very large size.
Make sure urb->actual_length <= urb->transfer_buffer_length.

On a successful transfer, urb->td is freed before the URB is ready to be
given back to the driver. Don't touch urb->td after it's freed. This bug
would have only shown up when xHCI debugging was turned on, and the freed
memory was quickly reused for something else.

The 0.95 xHCI spec says that non-control endpoints will be halted if a
babble is detected on a transfer. The 0.96 xHCI spec says all types of
endpoints will be halted when a babble is detected. Some hardware that
claims to be 0.95 compliant halts the control endpoint anyway.
When a babble is detected on a control endpoint, check the hardware's
output endpoint context to see if the endpoint is marked as halted. If
the control endpoint is halted, a reset endpoint command must be issued
and the transfer ring dequeue pointer needs to be moved past the stopped
transfer. Basically, we treat it as if the control endpoint had stalled.
Handle bulk babbling endpoints as if we got a completion event with a
stall completion code.

This Fresco Logic xHCI host controller chip revision puts bad data into
the output endpoint context after a Reset Endpoint command. It needs a
Configure Endpoint command (instead of a Set TR Dequeue Pointer command)
after the reset endpoint command.
Set up the input context before issuing the Reset Endpoint command so we
don't copy bad data from the output endpoint context. The HW also can't
handle two commands queued at once, so submit the TRB for the Configure
Endpoint command in the event handler for the Reset Endpoint command.
Devices that stall on control endpoints before a configuration is selected
will not work under this Fresco Logic xHCI host controller revision.
This patch is for prototype hardware that will be given to other companies
for evaluation purposes only, and should not reach consumer hands. Fresco
Logic's next chip rev should have this bug fixed.

When a control endpoint stalls, the next control transfer will clear the
stall. The USB core doesn't call down to the host controller driver's
endpoint_reset() method when control endpoints stall, so the xHCI driver
has to do all its stall handling for internal state in its interrupt handler.
When the host stalls on a control endpoint, it may stop on the data phase
or status phase of the control transfer. Like other stalled endpoints,
the xHCI driver needs to queue a Reset Endpoint command and move the
hardware's control endpoint ring dequeue pointer past the failed control
transfer (with a Set TR Dequeue Pointer or a Configure Endpoint command).
Since the USB core doesn't call usb_hcd_reset_endpoint() for control
endpoints, we need to do this in interrupt context when we get notified of
the stalled transfer. URBs may be queued to the hardware before these two
commands complete. The endpoint queue will be restarted once both
commands complete.

Full speed devices have varying max packet sizes (8, 16, 32, or 64) for
endpoint 0. The xHCI hardware needs to know the real max packet size
that the USB core discovers after it fetches the first 8 bytes of the
device descriptor.
In order to fix this without adding a new hook to host controller drivers,
the xHCI driver looks for an updated max packet size for control
endpoints. If it finds an updated size, it issues an evaluate context
command and waits for that command to finish. This should only happen in
the initialization and device descriptor fetching steps in the khubd
thread, so blocking should be fine.

Set the max packet size for the default control endpoint on high speed
devices to be 64 bytes. High speed devices always have a max packet size
of 64 bytes. There's no use setting it to eight for the initial 8 byte
descriptor fetch and then issuing (and waiting for) an evaluate context
command to update it to 64 bytes for the subsequent control transfers.
The USB core guesses that the max packet size on a full speed control
endpoint is 64 bytes, and then updates it after the first 8-byte
descriptor fetch. Change the initial setup for the xHCI internal
representation of the full speed device to have a 64 byte max packet size.

Different sections of the xHCI 0.95 specification had opposing
requirements for the chain bit in a link transaction request buffer (TRB).
The chain bit is used to designate that adjacent TRBs are all part of the
same scatter gather list that should be sent to the device. Link TRBs can
be in the middle, or at the beginning or end of these chained TRBs.
Sections 4.11.5.1 and 6.4.4.1 both stated the link TRB "shall have the
chain bit set to 1", meaning it is always chained to the next TRB.
However, section 4.6.9 on the stop endpoint command has specific cases for
what the hardware must do for a link TRB with the chain bit set to 0. The
0.96 specification errata later cleared up this issue by fixing the
4.11.5.1 and 6.4.4.1 sections to state that a link TRB can have the chain
bit set to 1 or 0.
The problem is that the xHCI cancellation code depends on the chain bit of
the link TRB being cleared when it's at the end of a TD, and some 0.95
xHCI hardware simply stops processing the ring when it encounters a link
TRB with the chain bit cleared.
Allow users who are testing 0.95 xHCI prototypes to set a module parameter
(link_quirk) to turn on this link TRB work around. Cancellation may not
work if the ring is stopped exactly on a link TRB with chain bit set, but
cancellation should be a relatively uncommon case.

FLEX_ARRAY_INIT(element_size, total_nr_elements) cannot determine if
either parameter is valid, so flex arrays which are statically allocated
with this interface can easily become corrupted or reference beyond its
allocated memory.
This removes FLEX_ARRAY_INIT() as a struct flex_array initializer since no
initializer may perform the required checking. Instead, the array is now
defined with a new interface:
DEFINE_FLEX_ARRAY(name, element_size, total_nr_elements)
This may be prefixed with `static' for file scope.
This interface includes compile-time checking of the parameters to ensure
they are valid. Since the validity of both element_size and
total_nr_elements depend on FLEX_ARRAY_BASE_SIZE and FLEX_ARRAY_PART_SIZE,
the kernel build will fail if either of these predefined values changes
such that the array parameters are no longer valid.
Since BUILD_BUG_ON() requires compile time constants, several of the
static inline functions that were once local to lib/flex_array.c had to be
moved to include/linux/flex_array.h.

Newly initialized flex_array's and/or flex_array_part's are now poisoned
with a new poison value, FLEX_ARRAY_FREE. It's value is similar to
POISON_FREE used in the various slab allocators, but is different to
distinguish between flex array's poisoned kmem and slab allocator poisoned
kmem.
This will allow us to identify flex_array_part's that only contain free
elements (and free them with an addition to the flex_array API). This
could also be extended in the future to identify `get' uses on elements
that have not been `put'.
If __GFP_ZERO is passed for a part's gfp mask, the poisoning is avoided.
These elements are considered to be in-use since they have been

Although this is equivalent to using flex_array_put() and passing a

caller's stack which could be significantly large depending on
