It is not intended for user programs using USB devices. See .IR usb (3) for a description of the interfaces provided for that purpose. .PP Usb drivers rely on .IR usb (3) to perform I/O through USB as well as on .IR usbd to perform the initial configuration for the device's setup endpoint. The rest of the work is up to the driver and is where this library may help. .PP An endpoint as provided by .IR usb (3) is represented by a .B Dev data structure. The setup endpoint for a device represents the USB device, because it is the means to configure and operate the device. This structure is reference counted. Functions creating .B Devs adjust the number of references to one, initially. The driver is free to call .IR incref (in .IR lock (2)) to add references and .I closedev to drop references (and release resources when the last one vanishes). As an aid to the driver, the field .B aux may keep driver-specific data and the function .B free will be called (if not null) to release the .B aux structure when the reference count goes down to zero. .PP .I Dev.dir holds the path for the endpoint's directory. .PP The field .B id keeps the device number for setup endpoints and the endpoint number for all other endpoints. For example, it would be .B 3 for .B /dev/usb/ep3.0 and .B 1 for .BR /dev/usb/ep3.1 . It is easy to remember this because the former is created to operate on the device, while the later has been created as a particular endpoint to perform I/O. .PP Fields .B dfd and .B cfd keep the data and control file descriptors, respectively. When a .B Dev is created the control file is open, initially. Opening the data file requires calling .I opendevdata with the appropriate mode. .PP When the device configuration information has been loaded (see below), .B maxpkt holds the maximum packet size (in bytes) for the endpoint and .B usb keeps the rest of the USB information. .PP Most of the information in .B usb comes from parsing various device and configuration descriptors provided by the device, by calling one of the functions described later. Only descriptors unknown to the library are kept unparsed at .B usb.ddesc as an aid for the driver (which should know how to parse them and what to do with the information). .SS Configuration .PP .I Opendev creates a .B Dev for the endpoint with directory .IR fn . Usually, the endpoint is a setup endpoint representing a device. The endpoint control file is open, but the data file is not. The USB description is void. In most cases drivers call .I startdevs and .I openep and do not call this function directly. .PP .I Configdev opens the data file for the device supplied and loads and parses its configuration information. After calling it, the device is ready for I/O and the USB description in .B Dev.usb is valid. .PP Control requests for an endpoint may be written by calling .I devctl in the style of .IR print (2). It is better not to call .I print directly because the control request should be issued as a single .I write system call. See .IR usb (3) for a list of available control requests (not to be confused with USB control transfers performed on a control endpoint). .SS Input/Output .I Opendevdata opens the data file for the device according to the given .IR mode . The mode must match that of the endpoint, doing otherwise is considered an error. Actual I/O is performed by reading/writing the descriptor kept in the .B dfd field of .BR Dev . .PP For control endpoints, it is not necessary to call .I read and .I write directly. Instead, .I usbcmd issues a USB control request to the device .I d (not to be confused with a .IR usb (3) control request sent to its control file). .I Usbcmd retries the control request several times upon failure because some devices require it. The format of requests is fixed per the USB standard: .I type is the type of request and .I req identifies the request. Arguments .I value and .I index are parameters to the request and the last two arguments, .I data and .IR count , are similar to .I read and .I write arguments. However, .I data may be .B nil if no transfer (other than the control request) has to take place. The library header file includes numerous symbols defined to help writing the type and arguments for a request. .PP The return value from .I usbcmd is the number of bytes transferred, zero to indicate a stall and -1 to indicate an error. .PP A common request is to unstall an endpoint that has been stalled due to some reason by the device (eg., when read or write indicate a count of zero bytes read or written on the endpoint). The function .I unstall does this. It is given the device that stalled the endpoint, .IR dev , the stalled endpoint, .IR ep , and the direction of the stall (one of .B Ein or .BR Eout ). The function takes care of notifying the device of the unstall as well as notifying the kernel. .SS Tools .I Class returns the class part of the number given, representing a CSP. .I Subclass does the same for the device subclass and .I Proto for the protocol. The counterpart is .IR CSP , which builds a CSP from the device class, subclass, and protocol. For some classes, .I classname knows the name (for those with constants in the library header file). .PP The macros .I GET2 and .I PUT2 get and put a (little-endian) two-byte value and are useful to parse descriptors and replies for control requests. .PP Functions .I emallocz and .I estrdup are similar to .I mallocz and .I strdup but abort program operation upon failure. .PP The function .I Ufmt is a format routine suitable for .IR fmtinstall (2) to print a .B Dev data structure. The auxiliary .I hexstr returns a string representing a dump (in hexadecimal) of .I n bytes starting at .IR a . The string is allocated using .IR malloc (2) and memory must be released by the caller. .PP .I Loaddevstr returns the string obtained by reading the device string descriptor number .IR sid . .SH SOURCE .B /sys/src/cmd/nusb/lib .SH "SEE ALSO" .IR usb (3), .IR nusb (4). .SH BUGS Not heavily exercised yet.
