Then my advice is: USB devices have interfaces. Not reflecting that in the design is a bad idea.

I unloaded both appletouch AND hci_usb. If you want large power savings from USB autosuspend, all loaded drivers must support autosuspend. The HCD can suspend only if all connected devices are suspended. Are you willing to test patches for HID & the new last_busy based usb core infrastructure?

Yes, but it is not problematic, as you run no additional risk. The worst thing that could happen is that you assign an IP to the wrong interface. But if the driver can't tell apart devices, neither can udev. So you've got nothing to lose and a lot to gain. > > I suggest a setting per interface in sysfs. > > That approach isn't feasible.

(If a > hub disappears during resume then its children are destroyed too.) Well, we have again a distinction between device and interface persistance. Some drivers and therefore interfaces will be unable to support persistance. It must be possible to resurrect only some interfaces of a device. On the core side persistance is asked for if a devices's interface or a device lower in the tree want persistance. > While a per-device flag might be workable, I think the most > straightforward approach is a single system-wide On/Off setting.

Yes indeed. The only thing left to improve, as I understand it, is enabling the C4/C4e power states available on the Core 2 Duo, which don't currently seem to be utilised by Linux.

[linux-usb-devel] Fwd: sn9c102 vs 2.6.21 problems (-ENOSPC)
Hello, some persons are reporting -ENOSPC errors from usb_submit_urb() in the sn9c102 driver for some unkown reasons. I can't reproduce this bug, although I tested and compiled the driver against the same version of the kernel used by one of the above users (default kubuntu 2.6.20-15-generic namely). Everything is working fine on my machine, so for now I can't give you further details about this issue. I suspect there have been some changes in the USB internals affecting usb_submit_urb(). Is this the reason in your opinion? Below is another bug report. The latest version of the sn9c102 used in these tests is available at http://www.linux-projects.org or included in 2.6.21-mm2. Best regards Luca -- Forwarded Message -- Subject: sn9c102 vs 2.6.21 problems Date: sabato 12 maggio 2007 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have a Chicony DC-2110 webcam. It was chosen to avoid the need for external linux drivers. Thank you for your contribution to the linux community by making a lot of webcam owners happy around the world. However unfortunately things sometimes go wrong, and I want to report an error here. My webcam have been working fine using Ekiga and sonic-snap until a recent kernel upgrade. I'm using the Hardened favour of Gentoo Linux. First I wasn't sure if the hardening features (PaX, grsecurity) may interfere with the driver, but after I've got exactly the same error messages using a vanilla kernel from kernel.org it was clear that it's not related to these special security additions. The symptom is, that previously functioning v4l2 programs fail to handle or even find the device. 1. the kernel log says: *** May 11 03:03:36 hostname usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 May 11 03:03:36 hostname usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice May 11 03:03:36 hostname usb 3-1: SN9C10[12] PC Camera Controller detected (vid/pid 0x0C45:0x600D) May 11 03:03:36 hostname usb 3-1: PAS106B image sensor detected May 11 03:03:36 hostname usb 3-1: Initialization succeeded May 11 03:03:36 hostname usb 3-1: V4L2 device registered as /dev/video0 May 11 03:03:36 hostname usb 3-1: Optional device control through 'sysfs' interface ready May 11 03:04:31 hostname usb 3-1: usb_submit_urb() failed, error -28 *** It repeats the last line as many times I try to access the device by any program. 2. sonic-snap fails like this: *** sonic-snap-gui Cannot open '/dev/video0': 28, No space left on device *** 3. Ekiga even won't find the webcam. I have a basic knowledge of the kernel, and it's clear, that the driver calls this function pretty clearly. I also suspect, that the data transfer completely fails. I've noticed, that with 2.6.21, a version bump happened regarding sn9c102, with a couple of new features. I reverted the driver to the previous version, and even after this I couldn't get it to work. It seems to me, that some changes were introduced in the USB layer with the advent of 2.6.21 blocking this driver to function correctly. I assume, that I'm not the only one with this complain. I hope, that I've found the right person, and I'll try to do my best to help you to fix this issue. Do you have any webcams failing with vanilla 2.6.21? Please let me know, what should I do next.

Is it the "Error -28" in your Subject line? -28 is -ENOSPC (which explains the error message for your "cat" command). It means the driver is trying to overcommit the available bandwidth. If you build a kernel with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG turned on, you'll probably see some warning messages in the dmesg log when the error occurs.

Why won't the stock workqueue work? We have way too many daemons already. Plus, making one more unconditionally regardless of hardware present seems like stepping over the line to me.

[linux-usb-devel] [PATCH] Make appletouch shut up when it has nothing to say
The appletouch devices found in the Intel Macs (and possibly some later PPC ones?) send a constant stream of packets after the first touch. This results in the kernel waking up around once every couple of milliseconds to process them, making it almost impossible to spend any significant period of time in C3 state on a dynamic HZ kernel. Sending the mode initialisation code makes the device shut up until it's touched again. This patch does so after receiving 10 packets with no interesting content.

[linux-usb-devel] Error -28 from usb_submit_urb function.
Hi, I have a problem with my sn9c102 webcam. After some debugging with Luca Ricolia (see below), Luca recognized that the problem comes from usb_submit_urb function, and probably was introduced recently in 2.6.20 kernel, maybe in ubuntu only. Can anyone help us with this ? Best regards Marek lsusb: Bus 002 Device 010: ID 0c45:608f Microdia Bus 002 Device 005: ID 1131:1001 Integrated System Solution Corp.

For one thing, "persistence" applies to entire devices, not to interfaces. For another, we can't make a device persistent unless we also make all its ancestor hubs persistent. (If a hub disappears during resume then its children are destroyed too.) While a per-device flag might be workable, I think the most straightforward approach is a single system-wide On/Off setting.

Indeed, the spec includes this puzzling language: The current (micro)frame number as returned by the host (Host Controller or HCD) is at least 32 bits, although the Host Controller itself is not required to maintain more than 11 bits when operating with full-speed devices or 14 bits when operating with high-speed devices. It's not at all clear what this is supposed to mean. Does it refer to a register in the host controller hardware, or is it talking about the value returned from a driver's subroutine? Does it mean that a 32-bit value is returned, of which only the lowest 11 (or 14) need to be valid? Or does it mean that the driver should maintain a full 32-bit (minimum) counter, where the lowest bits always agree with the value reported by the hardware?

[linux-usb-devel] Question about EHCI PCI/platform drivers
Hello, I'm working on EHCI HC glue port for Marvell Orion SoC. The Orion has a PCI/PCIE interfaces as well as an integrated USB controller. While looking at ehci-hcd.c it looks like there's some kind of dependency between PCI_DRIVER and PLATFORM_DRIVER. I saw some previous threads about the ehci-fsl.c regarding this issue, but I'm sure I understand, for example, why in module_init if pci_register_driver fails the platform driver is unregistered? Shouldn't these two types of drivers be independent?
