Hi, I have been looking at an issue where a phone that is the Function FS host sometimes locks up and causes the function: static ssize_t ffs_epfile_io(struct file *file, struct ffs_io_data *io_data) in drivers/usb/gadget/function/f_fs.c to timeout after MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT jiffies.
We are opening the ffs connection with the O_NONBLOCK option and this timeout seems to be far too long. The code causing the wait is here (line 834): if (unlikely(ret < 0)) { /* nop */ } else if (unlikely( wait_for_completion_interruptible(&done))) { ret = -EINTR; usb_ep_dequeue(ep->ep, req); } else { The function call wait_for_completion_interruptible(&done) equates to: wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout(&done, MAX_SCHEDULE_TIMEOUT); I was wondering what to change to fix this, is it reasonable to use a very small timeout if it is O_NONBLOCK or is any blocking not allowed? I would appreciate any thoughts on how this should work?
