Subject: [07/66] USB: fix bug in initialization of interface minor numbers
Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2010 11:34:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101022183556.871997053@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101022183711.GA23214@kroah.com>

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

commit 0026e00523a85b90a92a93ddf6660939ecef3e54 upstream.

Recent changes in the usbhid layer exposed a bug in usbcore.  If
CONFIG_USB_DYNAMIC_MINORS is enabled then an interface may be assigned
a minor number of 0.  However interfaces that aren't registered as USB
class devices also have their minor number set to 0, during
initialization.  As a result usb_find_interface() may return the
wrong interface, leading to a crash.

This patch (as1418) fixes the problem by initializing every
interface's minor number to -1.  It also cleans up the
usb_register_dev() function, which besides being somewhat awkwardly
written, does not unwind completely on all its error paths.
