This patch adds USB capabilities to libpayload. It requires some
memalign implementation (eg. the one I sent yesterday).
Features:
- UHCI controller driver
- UHCI root hub driver
- USB MSC (Mass Storage Class) driver
- skeleton of a USB HID driver
(requires better interrupt transfer handling, which is TODO)
- skeleton of a USB hub driver
(needs several blank spots filled in, eg. power management.
Again: TODO)
OHCI and EHCI are not supported, though OHCI support should be rather
easy as the stack provides reasonable abstractions (or so I hope). EHCI
will probably be more complicated.
Isochronous transfers (eg. webcams, audio stuff, ...) are not supported.
They can be, but I doubt we'll have a reason for that in the boot
environment.
The MSC driver was tested against a couple of USB flash drives, and
should be reasonably tolerant by now. But I probably underestimate
the amount of bugs present in USB flash drives, so feedback is welcome.

- handle error conditions
|
||||
- handle disconnect more gracefully (ie. make calling layer aware that the device doesn't exist somehow)
|
||||
- usbhub:
|
||||
- proper client enumeration (esp. detach)
|
||||
- change detection
|
||||
- power management
|
||||
- handle interrupts more cleverly:
|
||||
create a new queue for the interrupt with a couple of TD sequences,
|
||||
- each ending with "breadth first" flag
|
||||
- linked as a chain
|
||||
add that queue at the appropriate times in front of the default structure so the max latency is honored
|
||||
- only one intr chain per framelist item, so it must be arranged appropriately
|
||||
reads from usb device just look at "invalidated" tds and the results they got
|
||||
handled tds get reactivated as a ring structure
|
||||
- added as child of the oldest td
|
||||
- queue header already dropped the td, so no issue there
|
||||
|
||||
this setup ensures that:
|
||||
- the max latency of the device is honored
|
||||
- the client knows the right order of the data
|
||||
- there is no need for an interrupt handler
|
||||
- but must be polled at least max latency * num tds times -> more tds = less time pressure
