2009-03-24usb-storage: prepare for subdriver separationAlan Stern
This patch (as1206) is the first step in converting usb-storage's subdrivers into separate modules. It makes the following large-scale changes: Remove a bunch of unnecessary #ifdef's from usb_usual.h. Not truly necessary, but it does clean things up. Move the USB device-ID table (which is duplicated between libusual and usb-storage) into its own source file, usual-tables.c, and arrange for this to be linked with either libusual or usb-storage according to whether USB_LIBUSUAL is configured. Add to usual-tables.c a new usb_usual_ignore_device() function to detect whether a particular device needs to be managed by a subdriver and not by the standard handlers in usb-storage. Export a whole bunch of functions in usb-storage, renaming some of them because their names don't already begin with "usb_stor_". These functions will be needed by the new subdriver modules. Split usb-storage's probe routine into two functions. The subdrivers will call the probe1 routine, then fill in their transport and protocol settings, and then call the probe2 routine. Take the default cases and error checking out of get_transport() and get_protocol(), which run during probe1, and instead put a check for invalid transport or protocol values into the probe2 function. Add a new probe routine to be used for standard devices, i.e., those that don't need a subdriver. This new routine checks whether the device should be ignored (because it should be handled by ub or by a subdriver), and if not, calls the probe1 and probe2 functions.

2009-01-07USB: storage: add last-sector hacksAlan Stern
This patch (as1189b) adds some hacks to usb-storage for dealing with the growing problems involving bad capacity values and last-sector accesses: A new flag, US_FL_CAPACITY_OK, is created to indicate that the device is known to report its capacity correctly. An unusual_devs entry for Linux's own File-backed Storage Gadget is added with this flag set, since g_file_storage always reports the correct capacity and since the capacity need not be even (it is determined by the size of the backing file). An entry in unusual_devs.h which has only the CAPACITY_OK flag set shouldn't prejudice libusual, since the device will work perfectly well with either usb-storage or ub. So a new macro, COMPLIANT_DEV, is added to let libusual know about these entries. When a last-sector access succeeds and the total number of sectors is odd (the unexpected case, in which guessing that the number is even might cause trouble), a WARN is triggered. The kerneloops.org project will collect these warnings, allowing us to add CAPACITY_OK flags for the devices in question before implementing the default-to-even heuristic. If users want to prevent the stack dump produced by the WARN, they can disable the hack by adding an unusual_devs entry for their device with the CAPACITY_OK flag. When a last-sector access fails three times in a row and neither the FIX_CAPACITY nor the CAPACITY_OK flag is set, we assume the last-sector bug is present. We replace the existing status and sense data with values that will cause the SCSI core to fail the access immediately rather than retry indefinitely. This should fix the difficulties people have been having with Nokia phones.

2008-04-24USB: libusual: locking cleanupDaniel Walker
I converted the usu_init_notify semaphore to normal mutex usage, and it should still prevent the request_module before the init routine is complete. Before it acted more like a complete, now the mutex protects two distinct section from running at the same time.

2007-10-17kill DECLARE_MUTEX_LOCKEDChristoph Hellwig
DECLARE_MUTEX_LOCKED was used for semaphores used as completions and we've got rid of them. Well, except for one in libusual that the maintainer explicitly wants to keep as semaphore. So convert that useage to an explicit sema_init and kill of DECLARE_MUTEX_LOCKED so that new code is reminded to use a completion.

2007-04-27libusual: change block scope variable to function scopePete Zaitcev
Someone changed the code to kthread and used his style instead of mine. The problem with the block variables is that they provoke shadowing, which is actually exactly what has happened in my other tree which has the class patch.

2006-01-31[PATCH] USB: libusual: fix warning on 64bit boxesAlan Cox
We cast an int to a void * which not unreasonably makes gcc suspicious. We don't actually care what type "type" is so use unsigned long so it matches pointer length on all platforms.
