usbfs: private mutex for open, release, and remove The usbfs code doesn't provide sufficient mutual exclusion among open, release, and remove. Release vs. remove is okay because they both acquire the device lock, but open is not exclusive with either one. All three routines modify the udev->filelist linked list, so they must not run concurrently. Apparently someone gave this a minimum amount of thought in the past by explicitly acquiring the BKL at the start of the usbdev_open routine. Oddly enough, there's a comment pointing out that locking is unnecessary because chrdev_open already has acquired the BKL. But this ignores the point that the files in /proc/bus/usb/* are not char device files; they are regular files and so they don't get any special locking. Furthermore it's necessary to acquire the same lock in the release and remove routines, which the code does not do. Yet another problem arises because the same file_operations structure is accessible through both the /proc/bus/usb/* and /dev/usb/usbdev* file nodes. Even when one of them has been removed, it's still possible for userspace to open the other. So simple locking around the individual remove routines is insufficient; we need to lock the entire usb_notify_remove_device notifier chain. Rather than rely on the BKL, this patch (as723) introduces a new private mutex for the purpose. Holding the BKL while invoking a notifier chain doesn't seem like a good idea.

IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

I've succesfully disabled usbfs and use real nodes only on my box. With: "export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb" libusb picks up the udev managed nodes instead of reading usbfs files.

usbfs: private mutex for open, release, and remove The usbfs code doesn't provide sufficient mutual exclusion among open, release, and remove. Release vs. remove is okay because they both acquire the device lock, but open is not exclusive with either one. All three routines modify the udev->filelist linked list, so they must not run concurrently. Apparently someone gave this a minimum amount of thought in the past by explicitly acquiring the BKL at the start of the usbdev_open routine. Oddly enough, there's a comment pointing out that locking is unnecessary because chrdev_open already has acquired the BKL. But this ignores the point that the files in /proc/bus/usb/* are not char device files; they are regular files and so they don't get any special locking. Furthermore it's necessary to acquire the same lock in the release and remove routines, which the code does not do. Yet another problem arises because the same file_operations structure is accessible through both the /proc/bus/usb/* and /dev/usb/usbdev* file nodes. Even when one of them has been removed, it's still possible for userspace to open the other. So simple locking around the individual remove routines is insufficient; we need to lock the entire usb_notify_remove_device notifier chain. Rather than rely on the BKL, this patch (as723) introduces a new private mutex for the purpose. Holding the BKL while invoking a notifier chain doesn't seem like a good idea.

USB: make usbdevices export their device nodes instead of using a separate class o The "real" usb-devices export now a device node which can populate /dev/bus/usb. o The usb_device class is optional now and can be disabled in the kernel config. Major/minor of the "real" devices and class devices are the same. o The environment of the usb-device event contains DEVNUM and BUSNUM to help udev and get rid of the ugly udev rule we need for the class devices. o The usb-devices and usb-interfaces share the same bus, so I used the new "struct device_type" to let these devices identify themselves. This also removes the current logic of using a magic platform-pointer. The name of the device_type is also added to the environment which makes it easier to distinguish the different kinds of devices on the same subsystem. It looks like this: add@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1 ACTION=add DEVPATH=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2/2-1 SUBSYSTEM=usb SEQNUM=1533 MAJOR=189 MINOR=131 DEVTYPE=usb_device PRODUCT=46d/c03e/2000 TYPE=0/0/0 BUSNUM=002 DEVNUM=004 This udev rule works as a replacement for usb_device class devices: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \ NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644" Updated patch, which needs the device_type patches in Greg's tree.
