Bug Description

I am currently carrying out kernel testing and debugging with Alan Stern on the mainline kernel. Alan has proposed a patch to resolve a bug in USBFS that causes USB machine vision cameras to fail on kernels that contain the following patch:
    commit e951f84074b84a3f5aecbffd01da74576e0068d5
    Author: Lu Baolu <email address hidden>
    Date: Tue Jun 16 09:08:26 2015 +0800
    usb: core: lpm: set lpm_capable for root hub device
    commit 2d2a316765d956bc5cb6bb367b2ec52ca59ab8e9 upstream.

There is an issue in this patch that impacts software that rapidly issues claim/release calls in USBFS, and all of our customers that use Ubuntu 14.04.4 (kernel 4.2.x) and Ubuntu 16.04 (kernel 4.4.x) are unable to communicate with their machine vision cameras using our software stack.

The patch for the mainline kernel is being tested, and is currently posted, along with a history of this issue, at:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115961

Right now, all of our customers have to either use an older kernel, or manually patch their own kernel with the fix provided by Alan if they are required to use a newer kernel. I am raising this bug so that, once the patch is submitted to the the mainline/linus series, it can be included in the next "monthly" kernel update made available to the general public, and so our customers can just run a normal "vanilla" system without having to rely on manually patching their kernel every time they need to update.

I can be contacted at:

Thank you.

Sure thing.

Could you please add this to "Vivid"? It appears the latest kernel
release for 14.04.3 may now suffer from this issue too.

commit 6fb650d43da3e7054984dc548eaa88765a94d49f

    USB: leave LPM alone if possible when binding/unbinding interface drivers

    When a USB driver is bound to an interface (either through probing or
    by claiming it) or is unbound from an interface, the USB core always
    disables Link Power Management during the transition and then
    re-enables it afterward. The reason is because the driver might want
    to prevent hub-initiated link power transitions, in which case the HCD
    would have to recalculate the various LPM parameters. This
    recalculation takes place when LPM is re-enabled and the new
    parameters are sent to the device and its parent hub.

    However, if the driver does not want to prevent hub-initiated link
    power transitions then none of this work is necessary. The parameters
    don't need to be recalculated, and LPM doesn't need to be disabled and
    re-enabled.

    It turns out that disabling and enabling LPM can be time-consuming,
    enough so that it interferes with user programs that want to claim and
    release interfaces rapidly via usbfs. Since the usbfs kernel driver
    doesn't set the disable_hub_initiated_lpm flag, we can speed things up
    and get the user programs to work by leaving LPM alone whenever the
    flag isn't set.

    And while we're improving the way disable_hub_initiated_lpm gets used,
    let's also fix its kerneldoc.

Thank you. I have one last question on this bug. Where can I find current information on merge window dates, etc? I'm trying to create a rough estimate as to when these changes will become part of a security update that gets auto deployed via the "software update" apt gui to desktop users.

Cheers.
