Subject: Re: [PATCH] USB: don't read past config->interface[] if usb_control_msg() fails in usb_reset_configuration()
Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2010 02:36:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B7C9997.2020401@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100217234002.GE12197@kroah.com>

While looping over the interfaces, if usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth() fails it calls
hcd->driver->reset_bandwidth(), so there was no need to reinstate the interface
again.

If no break occurred, the index equals config->desc.bNumInterfaces. A
subsequent usb_control_msg() failure resulted in a read from
config->interface[config->desc.bNumInterfaces] at label reset_old_alts.

In either case the last interface should be skipped.

This is the one as Sarah kindly explained to me.

Thanks, Roel
