* USB: usbmon: end ugly tricks with DMA peekingPete Zaitcev2009-09-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes crashes when usbmon attempts to access GART aperture. The old code attempted to take a bus address and convert it into a virtual address, which clearly was impossible on systems with actual IOMMUs. Let us not persist in this foolishness, and use transfer_buffer in all cases instead. I think downsides are negligible. The ones I see are: - A driver may pass an address of one buffer down as transfer_buffer, and entirely different entity mapped for DMA, resulting in misleading output of usbmon. Note, however, that PIO based controllers would do transfer the same data that usbmon sees here. - Out of tree drivers may crash usbmon if they store garbage in transfer_buffer. I inspected the in-tree drivers, and clarified the documentation in comments. - Drivers that use get_user_pages will not be possible to monitor. I only found one driver with this problem (drivers/staging/rspiusb). - Same happens with with usb_storage transferring from highmem, but it works fine on 64-bit systems, so I think it's not a concern. At least we don't crash anymore. Why didn't we do this in 2.6.10? That's because back in those days it was popular not to fill in transfer_buffer, so almost all traffic would be invisible (e.g. all of HID was like that). But now, the tree is almost 100% PIO friendly, so we can do the right thing at last. Signed-off-by: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
* USB: Allow usbmon as a module even if usbcore is builtinPete Zaitcev2009-01-071-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | usbmon can only be built as a module if usbcore is a module too. Trivial changes to the relevant Kconfig and Makefile (and a few trivial changes elsewhere) allow usbmon to be built as a module even if usbcore is builtin. This is verified to work in all 9 permutations (3 correctly prohibited by Kconfig, 6 build a suitable result).

* USB: add binary API to usbmonPete Zaitcev2007-02-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new, "binary" API in addition to the old, text API usbmon had before. The new API allows for less CPU use, and it allows to capture all data from a packet where old API only captured 32 bytes at most. There are some limitations and conditions to this, e.g. in case someone constructs a URB with 1GB of data, it's not likely to be captured, because even the huge buffers of the new reader are finite. Nonetheless, I expect this new capability to capture all data for all real life scenarios. The downside is, a special user mode application is required where cat(1) worked before. I have sample code at http://people.redhat.com/zaitcev/linux/ and Paolo Abeni is working on patching libpcap. This patch was initially written by Paolo and later I tweaked it, and we had a little back-and-forth. So this is a jointly authored patch, but I am submitting this I am responsible for the bugs.

* [PATCH] usbmon in 2.6.13: peeking into DMA areasPete Zaitcev2005-09-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | This code looks at urb->transfer_dma, maps the page and takes the data. I am looking for volunteers to contribute architectures other than i386 or to develop an architecure-neutral API for it (or point me that it was done already).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
