On my Pinebook Pro (9.0 userland with current kernel), when logging in
to github.com in Firefox, as soon as I click the "use security key"
button with the key inserted, I get a kernel panic. See the photo at
https://photos.app.goo.gl/gGnipGAqzZ2at4qbA (sorry for the dirt on the
screen).

The message is "kernel diagnostic assertion "xfer->ux_status !=
USBD_CANCELLED" failed".

Any ideas? The panic in the photo is with a kernel from today.

This should be fixed by

https://mail-index.NetBSD.org/source-changes/2020/11/29/msg124699.html

but please let me know if you continue to have trouble with it!

Planning to test it on netbsd-9 and submit a pullup request when I
have a moment.

Circling back to this: I just built a new kernel from HEAD with the fix and can confirm that the security key login in Github on Firefox now works correctly! I also can no longer crash the kernel by issuing usbhidctl commands in rapid succession :)

Thank you so much!
