The kernel supports the device authorization because of wireless USB. These is usable for wired USB devices, too. These new interface authorization allows to enable or disable individual interfaces instead a whole device. If a deauthorized interface will be authorized so the driver probing must be triggered manually by writing INTERFACE to /sys/bus/usb/drivers_probe Signed-off-by: Stefan Koch <stefan.koc...@gmail.com> --- drivers/usb/core/message.c | 38 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/usb/core/usb.h | 2 ++ 2 files changed, 40 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/usb/core/message.c b/drivers/usb/core/message.c index 3d25d89..c090f50 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/core/message.c +++ b/drivers/usb/core/message.c @@ -1555,6 +1555,44 @@ static void usb_release_interface(struct device *dev) kfree(intf); } +/* + * usb_deauthorize_interface - deauthorize an USB interface + * + * @intf: USB interface structure + */ +void usb_deauthorize_interface(struct usb_interface *intf) +{ + struct device *dev = &intf->dev; + + device_lock(dev->parent); + + if (intf->authorized) { + device_lock(dev); + intf->authorized = 0; + device_unlock(dev); + + usb_forced_unbind_intf(intf); + } + + device_unlock(dev->parent); +} + +/* + * usb_authorize_interface - authorize an USB interface + * + * @intf: USB interface structure + */ +void usb_authorize_interface(struct usb_interface *intf) +{ + struct device *dev = &intf->dev; + + if (!intf->authorized) { + device_lock(dev); + intf->authorized = 1; /* authorize interface */ + device_unlock(dev); + } +} +
Why usb_deauthorize_interface() takes both dev->parent and dev locks and usb_authorize_interface() takes only dev lock?
