On one of my systems, when minicom opens /dev/ttyUSB0 (a PL2303) and
the kernel is 2.4.20-pre10 (compiled with Mandrake 9's gcc 3.2),
minicom segfaults and the kernel oopses.
2.4.19 does not have this problem, whether compiled with gcc 2.96 from
Mandrake 8.2 or gcc 3.2 from Mandrake 9.0. The oops happens with
2.4.20-pre5 and -pre9, 2.5.41, and 2.5.41-ac1 as well.
The decoded oops (from 2.4.20-pre10), and the .config (with blank/comment
lines stripped), follow. FWIW, it's a monolithic kernel (module support
disabled). If any more info or data is needed, I'll try my best to
provide it. This bug is 100% reproducible.

Can you enable debugging in the pl2303 driver (by loading it with
"debug=1") and send the kernel debug log for when the oops happens.
thanks,

Since it's a monolithic kernel, I recompiled with
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_DEBUG enabled. Here's the dmesg output, followed by
the decoded oops.

I'll consider doing this.
FWIW the hack worked fine from 2.4.13pre (and maybe a bit earlier
even) through 2.4.19, and it also works in later 2.2 (haven't tried
2.2.22 yet, but 2.2.22rc1 works).

I haven't bothered decoding the oops, or enabling USB serial debug,
under 2.5 at this point.
That reminds me, though, at some point in the 2.5 series my PL-2303 was
getting detected twice. (I'm not sure if this still happens.) Would that
be related? (I think it started oopsing then too, but at that point in
time I had no time to report it.)

I don't think returning it is an option (I don't think it's even under
warranty anymore). It's a couple of years too late to return it to the
place of purchase, certainly.
Of course, if you can't get the driver working again or it's not worth
the effort or whatever, don't worry about it.

It changes stuff but it still oopses. The dmesg and decoded oops follow.

The following patch (which reverts part of 2.4.20-pre2) seems to fix my
pl2303 oopsing (and let me use the device properly again) in 2.4.20-pre2
through -pre5. This patch doesn't work with -pre6 or up though (due to
white space differences and, more importantly, the removal of all 6
variables referenced in the if-statement).
Anyway, I'm posting this in case it provides another clue as to what's
not working.

The following patch allows the PL-2303 hack to work again. It applies
to and has been tested with 2.4.20-pre10. Testing included using an ISDN
"modem" connected to the PL-2303 to do some web browsing and some
downloads (including a gzipped Linux 2.5.42 tarball).
The patch resurrects a sanity check (or so it appears to me) which was
removed in 2.4.20-pre2. However, the new version of the check is
contained within the PL-2303 hack #ifdef's, and it no longer relies on
variables like interrupt_pipe which have been removed from the USB
serial code.
Given that 2.4.19 works with my PL-2303 and 2.4 is supposed to be a
"stable" series, I'd appreciate if this patch (or another which fixes my
problem) could be merged. If this patch needs improvements first, please
let me know.

Ah, thanks for finding this. Yes this does help, a bit. Hm. What /dev
device are you trying to write to, ttyUSB0 or ttyUSB1? Yeah, I think we
need this kind of check back in to fix this problem, but I don't see off
the top of my head how to add it back...
And yes, the problem in 2.5 where you see the device register itself
twice is a known bug (to me at least), it goes away if you disable
CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_GENERIC. It's on my TODO list, which seems to be
getting longer every day...
Any suggestions on how to fix this are appreciated. Basically we don't
want to claim the interface that only has the interrupt endpoint on it
for this device, as we kinda already did in the section entitled END
HORRIBLE HACK FOR PL2303. I guess we could just mark that interface as
claimed already, and then probe() would not get called again. Want to
throw a call to usb_driver_claim_interface() into that section, grabbing
that interface, and see if that works?
thanks,

Sweet, nice job, I like it. I'll go add this to my kernel trees and
send it to Marcelo.
Thanks for finding and fixing this.
Now, would you mind taking a look at 2.5, and fixing this there too? :)

No, it doesn't go away in 2.5 if I disable CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_GENERIC (I
just checked).

If I have time today I'll try that.

Here's a half-successful attempt. With this patch, the device no longer
appears twice, and it always works on the first open (at least, so I've
observed up to this point). The open following a successful open usually
fails (roughly speaking, it appears to play dead), and the open following
a failed open usually (always?) succeeds.
So, on my PL-2303, it's not perfect but it's certainly livable.
This patch is based on the one I did for 2.4, and in fact, this code
functions when it's plugged into 2.4.20-pre10 instead of 2.5.42. In that
scenario, the opens work 100% of the time.
I'd be interested in suggestions or comments regarding this patch.
Anyone who has a PL-2303 working under 2.5 might want to try this patch
just to make sure it doesn't kill their working setup.

Nice, I've added this to my tree. I also made the following patch, to
fix up the proper return value for the probe() call, and fix a memory
leak.
Let me know if this patch causes any problems for you.
thanks,

On the contrary, the percentage of non-working PL-2303 opens has now
gone from 50% to somewhere in the 5-15% range (rough guess). IOW, it's
working better than my previous patch.
FWIW, I'm seeing some "sleeping function called from illegal context"
oopses, but I didn't see if those were happening with my old patch. I'll
test with your latest batch of USB changes later (after they get merged
by Linus, most likely).

After applying the cset-1.782-to-1.850.txt.gz from
kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/dwmw2/bk-2.5/ I'm still having the
intermittent problems with the PL-2303 playing dead, and I got this
message once after boot (I think I had two times after boot that the
device seemed dead, FWIW):
drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c: 00:01.2 bad entry fb041c0
followed by tons of these oopses (I think it's one per LCP echo
request/reply pair on my PPP connection but I'm not sure):
Debug: sleeping function called from illegal context at
include/asm/semaphore.h:119
Call Trace:
[<c02095f7>] serial_write+0x77/0x170
[<c01da4e8>] ppp_async_push+0x138/0x1c0
[<c01da3a5>] ppp_async_send+0x45/0x50
[<c01d674e>] ppp_channel_push+0x7e/0x1a0
[<c01d548d>] ppp_write+0xfd/0x130
[<c013d67d>] vfs_write+0xcd/0x140
[<c013d78c>] sys_write+0x3c/0x60
[<c01075cb>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb
Also, I just tried unplugging and replugging my PL-2303. It gets changed
to ttyUSB1, ttyUSB2, etc. each time. (The removal of the PL-2303 seems
to be detected each time, judging by what I could figure out from the
logs, though.) Attempts to use it at the new device node work.
Attempts to use it at the old device node result in the user program
hanging or waiting for a response (I didn't look at things too closely
so I'm not exactly sure what's going on), and another ...ohci-q.c...bad
entry message (but no oops) is emitted when the program in question is
killed.
Under 2.4.20-pre10 + my 2.4 fix, the device always gets ttyUSB0, and
always works there.
All of this was with USB serial verbose debug disabled. I can try again
with it enabled, or try again with any other patches/suggestions, if it
would help figure out what's going on.

Heh, I didn't think that serial_write() would sleep, but I know the
pl2303 driver could have this problem. But it's just a warning, I know
the usb-serial drivers have some issues regarding PPP. Check the lkml
archives for a discussion about this only a week or so ago.

Glad this is working.
