The 2.4.23 kernel contains some fixes into: drivers/usb/serial/usbserial.c drivers/usb/serial/usbserial.h drivers/usb/serial/visor.c This has been verified with Greg Kroah-Hartman (the author of this piece of code) and confirmed to work very well by testing of my own on a custom kernel on Red Hat Linux 8. I assume that rolling a patch for Fedora Core 1 kernels would be advisable. Otherwise people will have to roll their own patches and patch the kernels sources to get the same effect. A bunch of these got merged into the latest errata kernel. Upgrade at the end of last week with the latest kernel: Linux aragorn.hugo.vanderkooij.org 2.4.22-1.2140.nptl #1 Tue Jan 6 20:20:43 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Did a full backup and it crashed at the exact spot it crashed before I had imported the 2.4.23-pre7 fixes into my own 2.4.22 kernel. Endingmy syslog with: Jan 12 11:00:12 aragorn kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout Jan 12 11:00:15 aragorn kernel: usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout Jan 12 11:00:15 aragorn kernel: visor.c: Bytes In = 26134630 Bytes Out = 423436Jan 12 11:01:30 aragorn kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:02.2-1 address 2 Jan 12 11:01:30 aragorn kernel: usbserial.c: Handspring Visor / Treo / Palm 4.0 / Clie 4.x converter now disconnected from ttyUSB0 Jan 12 11:01:30 aragorn kernel: usbserial.c: Handspring Visor / Treo / Palm 4.0 / Clie 4.x converter now disconnected from ttyUSB1 Unfortunatly not all relevant patches where included to fix USB synchronisation. Did some manual verification. I could find the changes from drivers/usb/serial/usbserial.c But failed to find the changes from drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.h Ouch. Just did some testing with the latest kernel: Linux aragorn.hugo.vanderkooij.org 2.4.22-1.2149.nptl #1 Wed Jan 7 13:08:26 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux And it still bombed out. Details identical to comment #3. And just for the record. All my testing is done with my Palm Tungsten E. Perhaps you can contact Greg about the fixes and see if he can verify the needed patches are correctly applied. I found him rather helpfull when I ran into problems with my own build kernel. Beth, you are allowing Hugo to hijack your bug. I need your confirmations. Created attachment 97121 [details]
Output of /var/log/messages
Shows an unsuccessful then a successful sync attempt.
I've done the kernel updates so now I'm running 2.4.22-1.2140.nptl and the log/messages output I attached above reflect that kernel. I no longer get kernel crashes, but sync is successful only very sporadically. Please test a kernel from this place: ftp://people.redhat.com/zaitcev/us3/ It's RHEL kernel, but should work fine for FC1 Just curious with what exact syntax I should add this kernel to the list of existing kernels? I rather do not loose them as I happen to known how they operate and would like to keep them available. Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: Having previously enjoyed USB hot-syncing with my Sony Clie under Red Hat 9, after upgrading to Fedora Core 1 (2.4.22-1.2115.nptl kernel) I'm suffering kernel crashes during attempted syncs. I've included the output from tail -f /var/log/messages. It's not very long so I've just put it into the additional information box. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. connect Clie to USB hotsync cable (set up in Red Hat 9 and confirmed good) 2. initiate hotsync from Clie's interface 3. watch kernel crash when the connection times out Actual Results: Kernel crashes, sync not completed. Expected Results: PDA device syncs properly and without crashing the kernel.
