Hi all,

over time, there have been a number of reports of crashes in usb_ifnum_to_if(),
called from usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth, which is in turn called from usb_set_interface().
Examples are [1] [2] [3]. A typical backtrace is:

I have been able to reproduce the problem on a Chromebook by strategically placing
msleep() calls into usb_set_interface() and usb_disable_device(). Ultimately, the
problem boils down to lack of protection against device removal in usb_set_interface()
[and/or possibly other callers of usb_ifnum_to_if()].

Sequence of events is roughly as follows:

- usb_set_interface() is called and proceeds to some point, possibly to
  mutex_lock(hcd->bandwidth_mutex);
- Device removal event is detected, and usb_disable_device() is called
- usb_disable_device() starts removing actconfig data. It has removed
  and cleared dev->actconfig->interface[i], but not dev->actconfig
- usb_set_interface() calls usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth(), which calls
  usb_ifnum_to_if()
- In usb_ifnum_to_if(), dev->actconfig is not NULL, but
  dev->actconfig->interface[i] is NULL
- crash

Question is what we can do about this. Checking if dev->state != USB_STATE_NOTATTACHED
in usb_ifnum_to_if() might be a possible approach, but strictly speaking it would
still be racy since there is still no lock against device removal. I have not tried
calling usb_lock_device() in usb_set_interface() - would that possibly be an option ?

Thanks,
Guenter
