[Patch v3] usb: core: stop USB enumeration if too many retries

From: Ray Chi
Date: Thu Sep 08 2022 - 06:41:07 EST


When a broken USB accessory connects to a USB host, usbcore might
keep doing enumeration retries. If the host has a watchdog mechanism,
the kernel panic will happen on the host.

The patch provide a attribute to limit the numbers of retries and
timeout lengths. In addition, it also adds a function to stop the
port initialization and ignore events on the port if the broken
accessory is still connected.

Changes since v2:
- replace the quirk with the attribute
- Document the attribute
- modify hub_port_stop_enumerate() position in port_event()
- modify the changelog

Changes since v1:
- remove usb_hub_set_port_power()
- add a variable ignore_connect into struct port_dev
- modify hub_port_stop_enumerate() and set ignore_connect in
this function
- avoid calling hub_port_connect_change() in port_event()
