[REGRESSION][BISECTED] flood of "hid-generic ... control queue full" since v5.14-rc1

[Michal Kubecek]

Hello,

starting with v5.14-rc1, my kernel log gets flooded with messages

  hid-generic 0003:051D:0002.0002: control queue full

at rate of ~33 per second. Device 051d:0002 is an APC UPS (BR-650 VA).
I bisected the issue to commit

  7652dd2c5cb7 ("USB: core: Check buffer length matches wLength for control transfers")

Reverting this commit on top of v5.14-rc6 resolves the issue. I suspect
the problem is some missing cleanup when usb_submit_urb() bails out on
the newly added check but I'm not familiar enough with the code to see
what is missing or if the problem is on USB or HID side.

But the message in the above commit does not match the message you are
seeing in your log.

Your message is coming from the hid-core.c file, where it checks to
verify if you have enough room in the buffer.  Ah, is the buffer filling
up because a driver is trying to send the wrong amount of data?

thanks,

Yes, that seems to be the case, I just wasn't sure if it's USB or HID
side who is responsible for discarding the message.

I replaced the dev_dbg() in usb_submit_urb() with dev_WARN_ONCE() and
got this stack trace:

and then continous flood of

  [   37.417079] hid-generic 0003:051D:0002.0002: control queue full

Looking at the code, the primary problem seems to be that the "else"
branch in hid_submit_ctrl() recalculates transfer_buffer_length to
a rounded up value but assigns the original length to wLength.

Looks like you found the bug.  Fixing it might be as simple as setting 
len = padlen in that "else" branch.  You could then combine the 
transfer_buffer_length assignment with the one in the "if" branch and 
hoist them out after the entire "if" statement.

With the patch below, there are no errors and the UPS communication
works correctly and so do other HID devices. But I would prefere someone
familiar with HID code to confirm that this is what we want and what
would be the right way to handle usb_submit_urb() errors.

Any luck with moving this forward please? I've got a similar issue with APC 
UPS and v5.14 kernel, and this patch also solves the connectivity issue for 
me.

Thanks.

I've been waiting to hear back from Benjamin to see if testing revealed 
any problems with the latest version of the patch.

Sorry, things have been complex last week while I was on vacation.

Got the same flood of messages when trying 5.14.0, found this thread, applied
the patch & rebuilt, problem is gone & UPS still working fine. Yay.
