[PATCH v3] ALSA: usb-audio: validate full match when resolving quirk aliases
From: Cássio Gabriel
Date: Wed Mar 18 2026 - 10:14:34 EST
get_alias_quirk() resolves a quirk for an aliased USB ID by scanning
usb_audio_ids[], but it currently checks only the vendor/product pair.
This is weak for quirk table entries that also depend on additional
USB_DEVICE_ID match fields, such as device or interface class,
subclass, protocol, interface number, or bcdDevice range.
Keep the aliased vid:pid as the lookup key, then validate only the
remaining match criteria of each candidate entry against the real
device/interface descriptors by clearing USB_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_DEVICE
from a temporary copy and passing it to usb_match_one_id().

Changes in v3:
- rework alias quirk matching as suggested by Takashi Iwai
- drop the explicit per-field helper
- keep the aliased vid:pid check first
- clear USB_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_DEVICE from a temporary id copy
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260317-alsa-usb-fix-quirk-alias-v2-1-6e531c67f0c8@xxxxxxxxx
Changes in v2:
- drop the temporary usb_device_id reconstruction approach
- validate only the remaining match_flags explicitly
- pass struct usb_interface * to get_alias_quirk()
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260314-alsa-usb-fix-quirk-alias-v1-1-3269998f7ada@xxxxxxxxx
