Public bug reported:
I'm trying to make g15daemon correctly recover after suspend/resume and found
that it occasionally hungs after resume in libusb's usb_urb_transfer()
(linux.c) on this line:
ioctl(dev->fd, IOCTL_USB_REAPURB, &context);
After some research I found that linux kernel internally has lists of
pending and completed requests. All requests - successful or not - are
moved from pending list to completed list, no requests should be lost.
But it looks like after suspend/resume some request may be lost (may be
a kernel bug). It that case IOCTL_USB_REAPURB would hung forever since
request it's waiting for will never appear on completed list.
There is simple workaround. After preceding IOCTL_USB_DISCARDURB call
our request is guaranteed to be completed, so there is no need to use
blocking IOCTL_USB_DISCARDURB, we may use non-blocking
IOCTL_USB_REAPURBNDELAY instead.
I've attached path for this workaround. It also fixes race condition
existed in original code, which may cause corruption of stack.
