This starts to prepare the core of "usbnet" to know less about various
framing protocols that map Ethernet packets onto USB, so "minidrivers"
can be modules that just plug into the core.
- Remove some framing-specific code that cluttered the core:
* net->hard_header_len records how much space to preallocate;
now drivers that add their own framing (Net1080, GeneLink,
Zaurus, and RNDIS) will have smoother TX paths. Even for
the drivers (Zaurus, Net1080) that need trailers.
* defines new dev->hard_mtu, using this "hardware" limit to
check changes to the link's settable "software" mtu.
* now net->hard_header_len and dev->hard_mtu are set up in the
driver bind() routines, if needed.
- Transaction ID is no longer specific to the Net1080 framing;
RNDIS needs one too.
- Creates a new "usbnet.h" header with declarations that are shared
between the core and what will be separate modules.
- Plus a couple other minor tweaks, like recognizing -ESHUTDOWN
means the keventd work should just shut itself down asap.
The core code is only about 1/3 of this large file. Splitting out the
minidrivers into separate modules (e.g. ones for ASIX adapters,
Zaurii and similar, CDC Ethernet, etc), in later patches, will
improve maintainability and shrink typical runtime footprints.

This patch (as556) adds support for unbinding the usb_generic "driver".
That driver only binds to USB devices, as opposed to interfaces, and it
does nothing much besides marking which struct device's go with an
overall USB device plus providing suspend/resume methods. Now that
users can unbind drivers at will using the sysfs "unbind" attribute, we
need a rational way of dealing with USB devices that are no longer under
full control of the USB stack. The patch handles this by unconfiguring
the device, thereby removing all the interfaces and their associated
drivers and children.

This patch (as555) modifies the already-awkward

deadlock by timing out seems only prudent.

This patch (as554) makes the hub driver disconnect any child USB devices
when it is unbound from a hub. Normally this will never happen, but
there are a few oddball ways to unbind the hub driver while leaving the
children intact. For example, the new "unbind" sysfs attribute can be
used for this purpose.
Given that unbinding hubs with children is now safe, the patch also
removes the code that prevented people from doing so using usbfs.

Adding flash-device support to the shuttle_usbat driver in 2.6.11
introduced the need to detect which type of device we are dealing with:
CDRW drive, or flash media reader.
The detection routine used turned out to not work for HP8200 CDRW users,
who saw their devices being detected as a flash disk.
This patch (which has been tested on both flash and cdrom) removes some
unnecessary code, moves device detection to much later during
initialization, and introduces a new detection routine which appears to
work.

29 July 2005, Cambridge, MA:
This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."
An anonymous spokesman for the Linux kernel development community
commented, "This is exactly the sort of thing we see happening all the
time. As the kernel evolves, support for old techniques and old code can
be jettisoned and replaced by newer, better approaches. Proprietary
operating systems do not have the freedom or flexibility to change so
quickly."
Mr. Stern, a staff member at Harvard University's Rowland Institute who
works on Linux only as a hobby, noted that the patch (labelled as548) did
not update two files, keyspan.c and option.c, in the USB drivers' "serial"
subdirectory. "Those files need more extensive changes," he remarked.
"They examine the status field of several URBs at times when they're not
supposed to. That will need to be fixed before the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK flag
is removed."
Greg Kroah-Hartman, the kernel maintainer responsible for overseeing all
of Linux's USB drivers, did not respond to our inquiries or return our
calls. His only comment was "Applied, thanks."

This patch started life as as479b, and has been rediffed. Please note
the order of submission of this latest patch series -- even tho this has
an older original number, it is the last patch I'll be sending today.
This patch changes the reported SCSI revision level to 2 for all
disk-type devices. This is needed in a few cases because the device
reports a level of 3 or higher but then crashes when given a REPORT LUNS
command (for which support is supposed to be mandatory at those levels).
This shouldn't harm us, since it only matters for sparse LUNs and we
have separate ways of coping with that.

This patch started life as as534, and has been re-diffed against the latest
tree.
usb-storage has a small loophole, a window between the time queuecommand
accepts a new command and the time the control thread starts to execute
it. If disconnect is called during that window, the driver won't cancel
the pending command -- we've been relying on the SCSI core to cancel it
for us during host removal. But it's better for usb-storage to cancel
it; this avoids races and reduces reliance on the SCSI core.
Fortunately cancelling these commands is easy to do; the key is to do it
_before_ calling scsi_remove_host.

This patch started life as as533, and has been re-diffed against the
current tree.
Disconnect processing in usb-storage naturally divides into two parts:
one to quiesce the driver (make sure no commands are executing or
queued) and remove the host, and the other to deallocate all the USB and
non-USB resources. This patch creates two subroutines to handle those
two parts. Mostly it's just code movement, but there is one significant
change. If the scsi-scanning thread fails to initialize but the host
has successfully been added, we need to quiesce the driver before
removing the host. After all, it's possible that scanning could have
been initiated from somewhere else, such as userspace -- very low
probability, but it's easily handled by calling the new subroutine.

This patch started life as as531 from Alan Stern. It has been rediffed
against the latest tree.
The SCSI people have deprecated the use of scsi_cmnd.serial_number for
anything other than printk. Worse than that, the SCSI core doesn't
always increment the number (when the error handler is running, for
example). So this patch creates a locally-stored value for use in
bulk-only tags. The net result is a simplification, since we no longer
have to save & restore the serial_number value while autosensing.
