commit 13890626501ffda22b18213ddaf7930473da5792 upstream. Many of the older USB drivers in the Linux USB stack were written based simply on a vendor's device specification. They use the endpoint information in the spec and assume these endpoints will always be present, with the properties listed, in any device matching the given vendor and product IDs. While that may have been true back then, with spoofing and fuzzing it is not true any more. More and more we are finding that those old drivers need to perform at least a minimum of checking before they try to use any endpoint other than ep0. To make this checking as simple as possible, we now add a couple of utility routines to the USB core. usb_check_bulk_endpoints() and usb_check_int_endpoints() take an interface pointer together with a list of endpoint addresses (numbers and directions). They check that the interface's current alternate setting includes endpoints with those addresses and that each of these endpoints has the right type: bulk or interrupt, respectively. Although we already have usb_find_common_endpoints() and related routines meant for a similar purpose, they are not well suited for this kind of checking. Those routines find endpoints of various kinds, but only one (either the first or the last) of each kind, and they don't verify that the endpoints' addresses agree with what the caller expects. In theory the new routines could be more general: They could take a particular altsetting as their argument instead of always using the interface's current altsetting. In practice I think this won't matter too much; multiple altsettings tend to be used for transferring media (audio or visual) over isochronous endpoints, not bulk or interrupt. Drivers for such devices will generally require more sophisticated checking than these simplistic routines provide.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
