A test build with patch-3.12.31-rc1 and the commit in question builds and runs fine for me. Thank you in advance. Regards Ingmar -------- Forwarded message -------- Subject: linux-stable: backport usb related commit to 3.10 and 3.12? Date: Sat, 23 Aug 2014 13:19:09 +0200 To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Greetings. On an administered server, I noticed that there's a constant load around 0.70 when running kernels 3.10 and 3.12, even if the system is doing nothing, and in single user mode. Culprit seems to be the process 'khubd'. No such effect when running kernels 3.4 or 3.14. I reverse bisected linux-stable and found that the following commit fixes it for me, for both kernel 3.10 and 3.12: [08d1dec6f4054e3613f32051d9b149d4203ce0d2] usb:hub set hub->change_bits when over-current happens Could that commit be backported to the stable 3.10 and 3.12 series? (Disclaimer: I'm not a programmer, but I'd be happy to help with any testing involved) Regards Ingmar -------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ git diff ac5166bcdb43889a5bd837f5076b78049e1f8bca 08d1dec6f4054e3613f32051d9b149d4203ce0d2 diff --git a/drivers/usb/core/hub.c b/drivers/usb/core/hub.c index c1422a0..babba88 100644 --- a/drivers/usb/core/hub.c +++ b/drivers/usb/core/hub.c @@ -1147,7 +1147,8 @@ static void hub_activate(struct usb_hub *hub, enum hub_activation_type type) /* Tell khubd to disconnect the device or * check for a new connection */ - if (udev || (portstatus & USB_PORT_STAT_CONNECTION)) + if (udev || (portstatus & USB_PORT_STAT_CONNECTION) || + (portstatus & USB_PORT_STAT_OVERCURRENT)) set_bit(port1, hub->change_bits); } else if (portstatus & USB_PORT_STAT_ENABLE) { -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
