[PATCH v3] USB: serial: pl2303: account for deficits of clones

From: Jan Kiszka
Date: Thu Sep 12 2024 - 04:38:05 EST


From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

There are apparently incomplete clones of the HXD type chip in use.
Those return -EPIPE on GET_LINE_REQUEST and BREAK_REQUEST. Avoid
flooding the kernel log with those errors. Detect them during startup
and then use the line_settings cache instead of GET_LINE_REQUEST. Signal
missing break support via -ENOTTY.

Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Changes in v3:
- use quirks field instead of new type (suggested by Michal)
