Looking into the codes, there is a loop in dvb_usb_read_remote_control(),
that is in rc_core_dvb_usb_remote_init() create a work that will call
dvb_usb_read_remote_control(), and this work will reschedule itself at
'rc_interval' intervals to recursively call dvb_usb_read_remote_control(),
see following code snippet:
rc_core_dvb_usb_remote_init() {
...
INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&d->rc_query_work, dvb_usb_read_remote_control);
schedule_delayed_work(&d->rc_query_work,
msecs_to_jiffies(rc_interval));
...
}
dvb_usb_read_remote_control() {
...
err = d->props.rc.core.rc_query(d);
if (err)
err(...) // Did not return even if query failed
schedule_delayed_work(&d->rc_query_work,
msecs_to_jiffies(rc_interval));
}
When the infinite log printing occurs, the query callback
'd->props.rc.core.rc_query' is cxusb_rc_query(). And the log is due to
the failure of finding a valid 'generic_bulk_ctrl_endpoint'
in usb_bulk_msg(), see following code snippet:
cxusb_rc_query() {
cxusb_ctrl_msg() {
dvb_usb_generic_rw() {
ret = usb_bulk_msg(d->udev, usb_sndbulkpipe(d->udev,
d->props.generic_bulk_ctrl_endpoint),...);
if (ret)
err("bulk message failed: %d (%d/%d)",ret,wlen,actlen);
...
}
...
}
By analyzing the corresponding USB descriptor, it shows that the
bNumEndpoints is 0 in its interface descriptor, but
the 'generic_bulk_ctrl_endpoint' is 1, that means user don't configure
a valid endpoint for 'generic_bulk_ctrl_endpoint', therefore this
'invalid' USB device should be rejected before it calls into
dvb_usb_read_remote_control().
To fix it, iiuc, we can add endpoint check in dvb_usb_adapter_init().

Hi, I'm not very familiar with USB driver, and I'm not sure the
type check is appropriate or not here. Would be any device properties
that allow 'generic_bulk_ctrl_endpoint' not being configured, or would
it be configured late after init ? :)
Kindly ping :)
Hi, Mauro, would you mind taking a look at this code ?

Thank you for your patch.
I think your change looks good. The only comment I have is that the same
check should be done for generic_bulk_ctrl_endpoint_response as well; the
usb_clear_halt() should be done as well, I think.
Thanks for your suggestion!
Do you mean the following change? If it is ok, I'll send a v2!
