>Description:
The dmesg output (I noticed it in the security run output, hence the '+'):
+ugen0: at uhub4 port 2 (addr 4) disconnected
+All threads purged from ugen0
+ugen0: detached
+usbd_get_string: getting lang failed, using 0
+ugen0: ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????\^Y???\^D product 0xfffe, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 4
+ugen0: at uhub4 port 2 (addr 4) disconnected
+All threads purged from ugen0
+ugen0: detached
It seems that when detaching the device before it has completely attached
creates rubbish in the strin gdescriptor.
>How-To-Repeat:
Plug in a device and remove quickly. Most probably this can be produced with a
bad cable as well. Or now I come to think of it, perhaps with a header that you
pull off by jiggling it from left to right.
>Fix:
Scanned the source code, but couldn't find it straightaway. Strange that a
string descriptor is fetched while fetching the language id failed. Or perhaps
the bug is in the subr_bus code that displays the device attachment string?
