The steps taken by usb core to set a new interface is very different from what is done on the xHC host side. xHC hardware will do everything in one go. One command is used to set up new endpoints, free old endpoints, check bandwidth, and run the new endpoints. All this is done by xHC when usb core asks the hcd to check for available bandwidth. At this point usb core has not yet flushed the old endpoints, which will cause use-after-free issues in xhci driver as queued URBs are cancelled on a re-allocated endpoint. To resolve this add a call to usb_disable_interface() which will flush the endpoints before calling usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth() Additional checks in xhci driver will also be implemented to gracefully handle stale URB cancel on freed and re-allocated endpoints Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Reported-by: Sudip Mukherjee <sudipm.mukherjee@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mathias Nyman <mathias.nyman@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
