From 0837e7e5270bd5547ba5763f11611dc43f677b3d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans de Goede Date: Sat, 8 Sep 2012 20:02:05 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] usbfs: Add a new disconnect-and-claim ioctl (v2) Apps which deal with devices which also have a kernel driver, need to do the following: 1) Check which driver is attached, so as to not detach the wrong driver (ie detaching usbfs while another instance of the app is using the device) 2) Detach the kernel driver 3) Claim the interface Where moving from one step to the next for both 1-2 and 2-3 consists of a (small) race window. So currently such apps are racy and people just live with it. This patch adds a new ioctl which makes it possible for apps to do this in a race free manner. For flexibility apps can choose to: 1) Specify the driver to disconnect 2) Specify to disconnect any driver except for the one named by the app 3) Disconnect any driver Note that if there is no driver attached, the ioctl will just act like the regular claim-interface ioctl, this is by design, as returning an error for this condition would open a new bag of race-conditions. Changes in v2: -Fix indentation of if blocks where the condition spans multiple lines Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede Acked-by: Alan Stern Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- drivers/usb/core/devio.c | 35 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/usbdevice_fs.h | 14 ++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 49 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/usb/core/devio.c b/drivers/usb/core/devio.c index ebb8a9de8b5f..e0356cb859b5 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/core/devio.c +++ b/drivers/usb/core/devio.c @@ -1928,6 +1928,38 @@ static int proc_get_capabilities(struct dev_state *ps, void __user *arg) return 0; } +static int proc_disconnect_claim(struct dev_state *ps, void __user *arg) +{ + struct usbdevfs_disconnect_claim dc; + struct usb_interface *intf; + + if (copy_from_user(&dc, arg, sizeof(dc))) + return -EFAULT; + + intf = usb_ifnum_to_if(ps->dev, dc.interface); + if (!intf) + return -EINVAL; + + if (intf->dev.driver) { + struct usb_driver *driver = to_usb_driver(intf->dev.driver); + + if ((dc.flags & USBDEVFS_DISCONNECT_CLAIM_IF_DRIVER) && + strncmp(dc.driver, intf->dev.driver->name, + sizeof(dc.driver)) != 0) + return -EBUSY; + + if ((dc.flags & USBDEVFS_DISCONNECT_CLAIM_EXCEPT_DRIVER) && + strncmp(dc.driver, intf->dev.driver->name, + sizeof(dc.driver)) == 0) + return -EBUSY; + + dev_dbg(&intf->dev, "disconnect by usbfs\n"); + usb_driver_release_interface(driver, intf); + } + + return claimintf(ps, dc.interface); +} + /* * NOTE: All requests here that have interface numbers as parameters * are assuming that somehow the configuration has been prevented from @@ -2101,6 +2133,9 @@ static long usbdev_do_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, case USBDEVFS_GET_CAPABILITIES: ret = proc_get_capabilities(ps, p); break; + case USBDEVFS_DISCONNECT_CLAIM: + ret = proc_disconnect_claim(ps, p); + break; } usb_unlock_device(dev); if (ret >= 0) diff --git a/include/linux/usbdevice_fs.h b/include/linux/usbdevice_fs.h index 3b74666be027..4abe28e41cbc 100644 --- a/include/linux/usbdevice_fs.h +++ b/include/linux/usbdevice_fs.h @@ -131,6 +131,19 @@ struct usbdevfs_hub_portinfo { #define USBDEVFS_CAP_NO_PACKET_SIZE_LIM 0x04 #define USBDEVFS_CAP_BULK_SCATTER_GATHER 0x08 +/* USBDEVFS_DISCONNECT_CLAIM flags & struct */ + +/* disconnect-and-claim if the driver matches the driver field */ +#define USBDEVFS_DISCONNECT_CLAIM_IF_DRIVER 0x01 +/* disconnect-and-claim except when the driver matches the driver field */ +#define USBDEVFS_DISCONNECT_CLAIM_EXCEPT_DRIVER 0x02 + +struct usbdevfs_disconnect_claim { + unsigned int interface; + unsigned int flags; + char driver[USBDEVFS_MAXDRIVERNAME + 1]; +}; + #ifdef __KERNEL__ #ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT #include @@ -211,5 +224,6 @@ struct usbdevfs_ioctl32 { #define USBDEVFS_CLAIM_PORT _IOR('U', 24, unsigned int) #define USBDEVFS_RELEASE_PORT _IOR('U', 25, unsigned int) #define USBDEVFS_GET_CAPABILITIES _IOR('U', 26, __u32) +#define USBDEVFS_DISCONNECT_CLAIM _IOR('U', 27, struct usbdevfs_disconnect_claim) #endif /* _LINUX_USBDEVICE_FS_H */ -- 2.30.2
