-The OHCI HCD layer is a simple but nearly complete implementation of what the
-USB people would call a HCD for the OHCI.
- (ISO comming soon, Bulk, INT u. CTRL transfers enabled)
-It is based on Linus Torvalds UHCI code and Gregory Smith OHCI fragments (0.03 source tree).
-The layer (functions) on top of it, is for interfacing to the alternate-usb device-drivers.

- * v4.0 1999/08/18 removed all dummy eds, unlink unused eds, code cleanup, bulk transfers
- * v2.1 1999/05/09 ep_addr correction, code cleanup
- * v0.2.0 1999/05/04
- * everything has been moved into 2 files (ohci-hcd.c, ohci-hub-root.c and headers)
- * virtual root hub is now an option,
- * memory allocation based on kmalloc and kfree now, simple Bus error handling,
- * INT and CTRL transfers enabled, Bulk included but disabled, ISO needs completion
- *
- * from Linus Torvalds (uhci.c): APM (not tested); hub, usb_device, bus and related stuff
- * from Greg Smith (ohci.c): better reset ohci-controller handling, hub
- *
- * v0.1.0 1999/04/27 initial release
-
-to remove the module try:
-rmmod usb-ohci-hcd
-
-Features:
-- virtual root hub, all basic hub descriptors and commands (state: complete)
- this is an option now (v0.2.0)
- #define CONFIG_USB_OHCI_VROOTHUB includes the virtual hub code, (VROOTHUB)
- default is with.
- (at the moment: the Virtual Root Hub is included automatically)
-
- files: ohci-root-hub.c, ohci-root-hub.h
-
-
-- Endpoint Descriptor (ED) handling more static approach
- (EDs should be allocated in parallel to the SET CONFIGURATION command and they live
- as long as the function (device) is alive or another configuration is choosen.
- In the HCD layer the EDs has to be allocated manually either by calling a subroutine
- or by sending a USB root hub vendor specific command to the virtual root hub.
- At the alternate linux usb stack EDs will be added (allocated) at their first use.
- ED will be unlinked from the HC chains if they are not bussy.
-
- files: ohci-hcd.c ohci-hcd.h
- routines: (do not use for drivers, use the top layer alternate usb commands instead)
-
- int usb_ohci_add_ep(struct ohci * ohci, unsigned int ep_addr1,
- int interval, int load, f_handler handler, int ep_size, int speed)
- adds an endpoint, (if the endpoint already exists some parameters will be updated)
-
- int usb_ohci_rm_ep( )
- removes an endpoint and all pending TDs of that EP
-
- usb_ohci_rm_function( )
- removes all Endpoints of a function (device)
-
-- Transfer Descriptors (TD): handling and allocation of TDs is transparent to the upper layers
- The HCD takes care of TDs and EDs memory allocation whereas the upper layers (UBSD ...) has
- to take care of buffer allocation.
- files: ohci-hcd.c ohci-hcd.h
-
- There is one basic command for all types of bus transfers (INT, BULK, ISO, CTRL):
-
- int ohci_trans_req(struct ohci * ohci, hcd_ed, int ctrl_len, void *ctrl, void * data, int data_len, __OHCI_BAG lw0, __OHCI_BAG lw1)
-
- CTRL: ctrl, ctrl_len ... cmd buffer
- data, data_len ... data buffer (in or out)
- INT, BULK: ctrl = NULL, ctrl_len=0,
- data, data_len ... data buffer (in or out)
- ISO: tbd
-
- There is no buffer reinsertion done by the internal HCD function.
- (The interface layer does this for a INT-pipe on request.)
- If you want a transfer then you have to
- provide buffers by sending ohci_trans_req requests. As they are queued as TDs on an ED
- you can send as many as you like. They should come back by the callback f_handler in
- the same order (for each endpoint, not globally) If an error occurs all
- queued transfers of an endpoint will return unsent. They will be marked with an error status.
-
- e.g double-buffering for int transfers:
-
- ohci_trans_req(ohci, ep_addr, 0, NULL, data0, data0_len, 0,0)
- ohci_trans_req(ohci, ep_addr, 0, NULL, data1, data1_len, 0,0)
-
- and when a data0 packet returns by the callback f_handler requeue it:
- ohci_trans_req(ohci, ep_addr, 0, NULL, data0, data0_len, 0,0)
- and when a data1 packet returns by the callback f_handler requeue it:
- ohci_trans_req(ohci, ep_addr, 0, NULL, data1, data1_len, 0,0)
-
- lw0, lw1 are private fields for upper layers for ids or fine grained handlers.
- The alternate usb uses them for dev_id and usb_device_irq handler.
-
-
-- Done list handling: returns the requests (callback f_handler in ED) and does
- some error handling, root-hub request dequeuing
- (files: ohci-done-list.c in ohci-hcd.c now(v0.2.0))
