Users running Android adb report crashes after\nadb has been polling and waking up the USB subsystem once a second for\nsome time.  Vendors are working on a solution.  Disabling USB runtime PM\nis one way to prevent this issue, but it is also proven that reducing the\nhold time to 120ms in resume also mitigates it.  See Link for more\ndetails.\n\nReducing the hold time to 120ms for the USB3 roothub is in itself a valid\nchange and optimization, as the current 200ms is excessive: a root hub\nhas no upstream suspended hub whose wake propagation needs to be\naccounted for, but still need some time for USB3 link training to\ncomplete.\n\nKeep the 200ms hold for external hubs that commit 8f5b7e2bec1c\n(\"usb: hub: fix detection of high tier USB3 devices behind suspended\nhubs\") is intended for.\n\n## Affected\n\n- `Linux >= 15fea75a788681dd36a869dd90ff4f0461ea0714 < e4df763ba3c4fdd1d9256f7a75a17ab7c5e31db6`\n- `Linux >= aec11e5f9c452ef64e2c113637ab89a67a5ceb62 < 2dc82d6a12050c2c678a328cd29837beb367df7d`\n- `Linux >= 8f5b7e2bec1c36578fdaa74a6951833541103e27 < e9545dd8bc62596b2a20966be41f39879ea7c8d0`\n- `Linux >= 8f5b7e2bec1c36578fdaa74a6951833541103e27 < d7c4a49b41583266e1456d40f37966029f61dab9`\n- `Linux >= 8f5b7e2bec1c36578fdaa74a6951833541103e27 < 29480b05e6e226594dc11ccf2a036fbd5cdd0e42`\n- `Linux 042959e9b479502a921109224c3abcc3d3cf09a1`\n- `Linux 8aa04df2553f29e6249f978a29421f2744a65ffb`\n- `Linux e38ca702130b7d70834abdbee58135ca471b2106`\n- `Linux 43e53eb8433c332666a222bff8e49aa03a470d0d`\n- `Linux 16840c4e102ee5424ab1c49238f0bbf568d13a1c`\n- `Linux >= 6.6.100 < 6.6.160`\n- `Linux >= 6.12.40 < 6.12.113`\n- `Linux >= 5.4.297 < 5.5`\n- `Linux >= 5.10.241 < 5.11`\n- `Linux >= 5.15.190 < 5.16`\n- `Linux >= 6.1.147 < 6.2`\n- `Linux >= 6.15.8 < 6.16`\n- `Linux 6.16`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.","depth":"sunlit","depthScore":3,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":2.8,"likelihood":0,"exploitation":0,"ransomware":0},"changes":[]}
