221.Sh DESCRIPTION
222.
223The
224.Nm
225library implements functions to be able to easily access and control
226USB through the USB file system interface.
227The
228.Nm
229interfaces are specific to the
230.Fx
231usb stack and are not available on other operating systems, portable
232applications should consider using
233.Xr libusb 3 .
234.
235.
236.Sh USB TRANSFER OPERATIONS
237.
238.
239.Fn libusb20_tr_close
240will release all kernel resources associated with an USB
241.Fa xfer .
242.
243This function returns zero upon success.
244.
245Non-zero return values indicate a LIBUSB20_ERROR value.
246.
247.Pp
248.
249.Fn libusb20_tr_open
250will allocate kernel buffer resources according to
251.Fa max_buf_size
252and
253.Fa max_frame_count
254associated with an USB
255.Fa pxfer
256and bind the transfer to the specified
257.Fa ep_no .
258.Fa max_buf_size
259is the minimum buffer size which the data transport layer has to support.
260If
261.Fa max_buf_size
262is zero, the
263.Nm
264library will use wMaxPacketSize to compute the buffer size.
265This can be useful for isochronous transfers.
266The actual buffer size can be greater than
267.Fa max_buf_size
268and is returned by
269.Fn libusb20_tr_get_max_total_length .
270.
271If
272.Fa max_frame_count
273is OR'ed with LIBUSB20_MAX_FRAME_PRE_SCALE the remaining part of the
274argument is converted from milliseconds into the actual number of
275frames rounded up, when this function returns.
276This flag is only valid for ISOCHRONOUS transfers and has no effect
277for other transfer types.
278The actual number of frames setup is found by calling
279.Fn libusb20_tr_get_max_frames .
280.
281This function returns zero upon success.
282.
283Non-zero return values indicate a LIBUSB20_ERROR value.
284.
285.Pp
286.
287.Fn libusb20_tr_get_pointer
288will return a pointer to the allocated USB transfer according to the
289.Fa pdev
290and
291.Fa tr_index
292arguments.
293.
294This function returns NULL in case of failure.
295.
296.Pp
297.
298.Fn libusb20_tr_get_time_complete
299will return the completion time of an USB transfer in
300millisecond units. This function is most useful for isochronous USB
301transfers when doing echo cancelling.
302.
303.Pp
304.
305.Fn libusb20_tr_get_actual_frames
306will return the actual number of USB frames after an USB
307transfer completed. A value of zero means that no data was transferred.
308.
309.Pp
310.
311.Fn libusb20_tr_get_actual_length
312will return the sum of the actual length for all
313transferred USB frames for the given USB transfer.
314.
315.Pp
316.
317.Fn libusb20_tr_get_max_frames
318will return the maximum number of USB frames that were
319allocated when an USB transfer was setup for the given USB transfer.
320.
321.Pp
322.
323.Fn libusb20_tr_get_max_packet_length
324will return the maximum packet length in bytes
325associated with the given USB transfer.
326.
327The packet length can be used round up buffer sizes so that short USB
328packets are avoided for proxy buffers.
329.
330.
331.Pp
332.
333.Fn libusb20_tr_get_max_total_length
334will return the maximum value for the data length sum of all USB
335frames associated with an USB transfer.
336In case of control transfers the value returned does not include the
337length of the SETUP packet, 8 bytes, which is part of frame zero.
338The returned value of this function is always aligned to the maximum
339packet size, wMaxPacketSize, of the endpoint which the USB transfer is
340bound to.
341.
342.Pp
343.
344.Fn libusb20_tr_get_status
345will return the status of an USB transfer.
346.
347Status values are defined by a set of LIBUSB20_TRANSFER_XXX enums.
348.
349.Pp
350.
351.Fn libusb20_tr_pending
352will return non-zero if the given USB transfer is
353pending for completion.
354.
355Else this function returns zero.
356.
357.Pp
358.
359.Fn libusb20_tr_callback_wrapper
360This is an internal function used to wrap asynchronous USB callbacks.
361.
362.Pp
363.
364.Fn libusb20_tr_clear_stall_sync
365This is an internal function used to synchronously clear the stall on
366the given USB transfer.
367.
368Please see the USB specification for more information on stall
369clearing.
370.
371If the given USB transfer is pending when this function is called, the
372USB transfer will complete with an error after that this function has
373been called.
374.
375.Pp
376.
377.Fn libusb20_tr_drain
378will stop the given USB transfer and will not return
379until the USB transfer has been stopped in hardware.
380.
381.Pp
382.
383.Fn libusb20_tr_set_buffer
384is used to set the
385.Fa buffer
386pointer for the given USB transfer and
387.Fa fr_index .
388.
389Typically the frame index is zero.
390.
391.
392.Pp
393.
394.Fn libusb20_tr_set_callback
395is used to set the USB callback for asynchronous USB
396transfers.
397.
398The callback type is defined by libusb20_tr_callback_t.
399.
400.Pp
401.
402.Fn libusb20_tr_set_flags
403is used to set various USB flags for the given USB transfer.
404.Bl -tag -width "LIBUSB20_TRANSFER_SINGLE_SHORT_NOT_OK"
405.It LIBUSB20_TRANSFER_SINGLE_SHORT_NOT_OK
406Report a short frame as error.
407.It LIBUSB20_TRANSFER_MULTI_SHORT_NOT_OK
408Multiple short frames are not allowed.
409.It LIBUSB20_TRANSFER_FORCE_SHORT
410All transmitted frames are short terminated.
411.It LIBUSB20_TRANSFER_DO_CLEAR_STALL
412Will do a clear-stall before starting the transfer.
413.El
414.
415.Pp
416.
417.Fn libusb20_tr_get_length
418returns the length of the given USB frame by index.
419After an USB transfer is complete the USB frame length will get updated to the actual transferred length.
420.
