Yes, some devices return incorrect lengths in their string
descriptors. Rather than losing, do what Windows does: just
request the maximum size, and allow a shorter response. Obsoletes
the need for UQ_NO_STRINGS, and therefore these "quirks" are removed.
usb_subr.c (1.116), author: mycroft
In the "seemed like a good idea until I found the fatal flaw"
department... Attempting to read a maximum-size string descriptor
causes my kue device to go completely apeshit. So, go back to the
original method, but allow the device to return a shorter string than
it claimed.

# A new umodem appears to be needed to make the sanyo phone work, but that's

- Sync ohci, uhci and usbdi modules with NetBSD in order to obtain the
following improvements:
o New USBD_NO_TSLEEP flag can be used in place of UQ_NO_TSLEEP
quirk. This allows drivers to specify busy waiting only for
certain transfers (namely control transfers for reading/writing
registers and stuff).
o New USBD_FORCE_SHORT_XFER flag can be used to deal with
devices like the ADMtek Pegasus that sense the end of bulk OUT
transfers in a special way (if a transfer is exactly a multiple
of 64 bytes in size, you need to send an extra empty packet
to terminate the transfer).
o usbd_open_pipe_intr() now accepts an interval argument which
can be used to change the rate at which the interrupt callback
routine is invoked. Specifying USBD_DEFAULT_INTERVAL uses the
value specified in the device's config data, but drivers can
override it if needed.
- Change if_aue to use USBD_FORCE_SHORT_XFER for packet transmissions.
- Change if_aue, if_kue and if_cue to use USBD_NO_TSLEEP for all
control transfers. We no longer force the non-tsleep hack for
bulk transfers since these are done asynchronously anyway.
- Removed quirk entry fiddling from if_aue and if_kue since we don't
need it anymore now that we have the USBD_NO_TSLEEP flag.
- Tweak ulpt, uhid, ums and ukbd drivers to use the new arg to
usbd_open_pipe_intr().
- Add a flag to the softc struct in the ethernet drivers to indicate
when a device has been detached, and use this flag to perform
tests to prevent the drivers from trying to do control transfers
if this is the case. This is necessary because calling if_detach()
with INET6 enabled will eventually result in a call to the driver's
ioctl() routine to delete the multicast groups on the interface,
which will result in attempts to perform control transfers. (It's
possible this also happens even without INET6 support enabled.) This
is pointless since we know that if the detach method has been called,
the hardware has been unplugged.
- Changed watchdog timeout routines to just call the driver init routines
to initialize the device states without trying to close and re-open the
pipes. This is partly because we don't want to frob things at interrupt
context, but also because this doesn't seem to work right and I don't
want to panic the system just because a USB device may have stopped
responding.
- Fix aue_rxeof() to be a little smarter about detecting when a double
transfer is needed. Unfortunately, the design of the chip makes it hard
to get this exactly right. Hopefully, this will go away once either
Nick or Lennart finds the bug in the uhci driver that makes this ugly
hack necessary.
- Also sync usbdevs with NetBSD.
- Add vendor/device ID for Corega USB-T ethernet adapter to necessary
places so that it will work with the kue driver.
- Add vendor/device ID for CATC Netmate devices for driver to be added
soon.
- Get really crazy about netisr stuff: avoid doing any mbuf allocations
or deallocations at splbio/splusb.
- Fix if_aue driver so that it works with LinkSys USB100TX: you need
to flip the GPIO bits just the right way to put the PHY in the right
mode.
Note: the .INF file for LinkSys's driver says the vendor ID is 0x66b,
however this does not agree with the vendor ID listed for LinkSys in
the company list from www.usb.org. In fact, 0x66b doesn't seem to appear
in the company list at all. Furthermore, this same vendor ID crops
up in some of the D-Link .INF files. Frankly I don't know what the heck
is going on here, but I need to add 0x66b to usbdevs and call it
something, so here we are.
ethernet adapters that are supported by the aue and kue drivers.
There are actually a couple more out there from Accton, Asante and
EXP Computer, however I was not able to find any Windows device
drivers for these on their servers, and hence could not harvest
their vendor/device ID info. If somebody has one of these things
and can look in the .inf file that comes with the Windows driver,
I'd appreciate knowing what it says for 'VID' and 'PID.'
Additional adapters include: the D-Link DSB-650 and DSB-650TX, the
SMC 2102USB, 2104USB and 2202USB, the ATen UC10T, and the Netgear EA101.
These are all mentioned in the man pages, relnotes and LINT.
Also correct the date in the kue(4) man page. I wrote this thing
on Jan, 4 2000, not 1999.
Kawasaki LSI KL5KUSB101B chip, including the LinkSys USB10T, the
Entrega NET-USB-E45, the Peracom USB Ethernet Adapter, the 3Com
3c19250 and the ADS Technologies USB-10BT. This device is 10mbs
half-duplex only, so there's miibus or ifmedia support. This device
also requires firmware to be loaded into it, however KLSI allows
redistribution of the firmware images (I specifically asked about
this; they said it was ok).
Special thanks to Annelise Anderson for getting me in touch with
KLSI (eventually) and thanks to KLSI for providing the necessary
programming info.
Highlights:
- Add driver files to /sys/dev/usb
- update usbdevs and regenerate attendate files
- update usb_quirks.c
- Update HARDWARE.TXT and RELNOTES.TXT for i386 and alpha
- Update LINT, GENERIC and others for i386, alpha and pc98
- Add man page
- Add module
- Update sysinstall and userconfig.c
USB ethernet chip. Adapters that use this chip include the LinkSys
USB100TX. There are a few others, but I'm not certain of their
availability in the U.S. I used an ADMtek eval board for development.
Note that while the ADMtek chip is a 100Mbps device, you can't really
get 100Mbps speeds over USB. Regardless, this driver uses miibus to
allow speed and duplex mode selection as well as autonegotiation.
Building and kldloading the driver as a module is also supported.
Note that in order to make this driver work, I had to make what some
may consider an ugly hack to sys/dev/usb/usbdi.c. The usbd_transfer()
function will use tsleep() for synchronous transfers that don't complete
right away. This is a problem since there are times when we need to
do sync transfers from an interrupt context (i.e. when reading registers
from the MAC via the control endpoint), where tsleep() us a no-no.
My hack allows the driver to have the code poll for transfer completion
subject to the xfer->timeout timeout rather that calling tsleep().
This hack is controlled by a quirk entry and is only enabled for the
ADMtek device.
Now, I'm sure there are a few of you out there ready to jump on me
and suggest some other approach that doesn't involve a busy wait. The
only solution that might work is to handle the interrupts in a kernel
thread, where you may have something resembling a process context that
makes it okay to tsleep(). This is lovely, except we don't have any
mechanism like that now, and I'm not about to implement such a thing
myself since it's beyond the scope of driver development. (Translation:
I'll be damned if I know how to do it.) If FreeBSD ever aquires such
a mechanism, I'll be glad to revisit the driver to take advantage of
it. In the meantime, I settled for what I perceived to be the solution
that involved the least amount of code changes. In general, the hit
is pretty light.
Also note that my only USB test box has a UHCI controller: I haven't
I don't have a machine with an OHCI controller available.
Highlights:
- Updated usb_quirks.* to add UQ_NO_TSLEEP quirk for ADMtek part.
- Updated usbdevs and regenerated generated files
- Updated HARDWARE.TXT and RELNOTES.TXT files
- Updated sysinstall/device.c and userconfig.c
- Updated kernel configs -- device aue0 is commented out by default
- Updated /sys/conf/files
- Added new kld module directory
Cleaning up the code:
- Declare many functions static
- Change variable names to make them more self explanatory
- Change usbd_request_handle -> usbd_xfer_handle
- Syntactical changes
- Remove some unused code
- Other KNF changes
Interrupt context handling
- Change delay to usbd_delay_ms were possible (takes polling mode into
account)
- Change detection mechanism for interrupt context
Add support for pre-allocation DMA-able memory by device driver
Add preliminary support for isochronous to the UHCI driver (not for OHCI
yet).
usb.c, uhci.c, ohci.c
- Initial attempt at detachable USB host controllers
- Handle the use_polling flag with a lttle more care and only set it if
we are cold booting.
usb.c, uhci.c ohci.c, usbdi.c usbdi_util.c usb_subr.c
- Make sure an aborted pipe is marked as not running.
- Start queued request in the right order.
- Insert some more DIAGNOSTIC sanity checks.
- Remove (almost) unused definitions USBD_XFER_OUT and USBD_XFER_IN.
usb.c, usb_subr.c
- Add an event mechanism so that a userland process can watch devices
come and go.
ohci.c
- Handle the case when a USB transfer is so long that it crosses two
page (4K) boundaries. OHCI cannot do that with a single TD so we make
a chain.
ulpt.c
- Use a bigger buffer when transferring data.
- Pre-allocate the DMA buffer. This makes the driver slightly more
efficient.
- Comment out the GET_DEVICE_ID code, because for some unknown reason it
causes printing to fail sometimes.
usb.h
- Add a macro to extract the isoc type.
- Add a macro to check whether the routine has been entered after splusb
and if not, complain.
usbdi.c
- Fix a glitch in dequeueing and aborting requests on interrupt pipes.
- Add a flag in the request to determine if the data copying is done by
the driver or the usbdi layer.
Rename a few (I wish companies would stop buying each other)
Add a quirk entry for hubs that say they are self powered but are
in fact bus powered (usage in uhub follows shortly).
It however posts a bogus button up event once in a while. Whenever
we receive dx=dy=dz=buttons=0 we postpone adding it to the queue for
50msecs with a timeout. If in the meantime something else is posted
the event is ignored.
This avoids the problem Nik Sayer reported. He noticed that X windows
would drop and pick up a window once in a while.
Thanks, Nik, for supplying me with the keyboard to fix the problem!
- Some cleanup and improvements in the uhci and ohci drivers
- Support for plugging and unplugging devices improved
- Now available is bulk transport over OHCI controllers
- Resume and suspend have been temporarily been disabled again. Proper
support for it is available in the uhci.c and ohci.c files but I have
not yet spent the brain cycles to use it.
- OpenBSD now uses the USB stack as well
- Add FreeBSD tags
