Subject: [PATCH] ipaq.c bugfixes
Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2006 00:42:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060531224245.GB17711@fks.be> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060531215523.GA13745@suse.de>

This patch fixes several problems in the ipaq.c driver with connecting
and disconnecting pocketpc devices: 
* The read urb stayed active if the connect failed, causing nullpointer
  dereferences later on. 
* If a write failed, the driver continued as if nothing happened. Now it
  handles that case the same way as other usb serial devices (fix by 
  "Luiz Fernando N. Capitulino" <lcapitulino@mandriva.com.br>)

The connect_retries parameter is added because if a pocketpc device is
connected while it is rebooting, it can take a long time after the USB
connect (sometimes several minutes) before it starts accepting the
control packet that starts the serial connection. Since this is not the
normal usecase, it is probably better to leave the default number of
retries as-is.
