28.Sh INTERFACE LEVEL
29.Sy Volatile -
30illumos USB HCD private function
31.Pp
32This is a private function that is not part of the stable DDI.
33It may be removed or changed at any time.
34.Sh PARAMETERS
35.Bl -tag -width Fa
36.It Fa ph
37A pointer to a USB pipe handle as defined in
38.Xr usba_pipe_handle_data 9S .
39.It Fa usrp
40A pointer to a USB isochronous transfer request.
41The structure's members are documented in
42.Xr usb_isoc_req 9S .
43.It Fa usb_flags
44Flags which describe how allocations should be performed.
45Valid flags are:
46.Bl -tag -width Sy
47.It Sy USB_FLAGS_NOSLEEP
48Do not block waiting for memory.
49If memory is not available the allocation will fail.
50.It Sy USB_FLAGS_SLEEP
51Perform a blocking allocation.
52If memory is not available, the function will wait until memory is made
53available.
54.Pp
55Note, the request may still fail even if
56.Sy USB_FLAGS_SLEEP
57is specified.

60.Sh DESCRIPTION
61The
62.Fn usba_hcdi_pipe_isoc_xfer
63entry point is used to initiate an
64.Em asynchronous
65USB isochronous transfer on the pipe
66.Fa ph .
67The specific USB interrupt transfer is provided in
68.Fa uirp .
69For more background on transfer types, see
70.Xr usba_hcdi 9E .
71.Pp
72The host controller driver should first check the USB address of the
73pipe handle.
74It may correspond to the root hub.
75If it does, the driver should return
76.Sy USB_NOT_SUPPORTED .
77.Pp
78Isochronous transfers happen once a period.
79Isochronous transfers may just be told to start as son as possible or to line up
80to a specific frame.
81At this time, nothing in the system uses the later behavior.
82It is reasonable for a new driver to require that the
83.Sy USB_ATTRS_ISOC_XFER_ASAP
84flag be set in the
85.Sy isoc_attributes
86member of the
87.Fa usrp
88argument.
89In the case where it's not set and the controller driver does not support
90setting the frame, it should return
91.Sy USB_NOT_SUPPORTED .
92.Pp
93Isochronous-IN transfers are
94.Em always periodic .
95Isochronous-OUT transfers are one shot transfers.
96Periodic transfers have slightly different handling and behavior.
97.Pp
98Isochronous transfers may send data to the device or receive data from
99the device.
100A given isochronous endpoint is uni-directional.
101The direction can be determined from the endpoint address based on the
102.Sy p_ep
103member of
104.Fa ubrp .
105See
106.Xr usb_ep_descr 9S
107for more information on how to determine the direction of the endpoint.
108.Pp
109Isochronous transfers are a little bit different from other transfers.
110While there is still a single
111.Xr mblk 9S
112structure that all the data goes to or from, the transfer may be broken
113up into multiple packets.
114All of these packets make up a single transfer request and each one represents
115the data that is transferred during a single portion of a frame.
116For the description of them, see
117.Xr usb_isoc_req 9S .
118Because of these data structures, the way that transfers are recorded is
119different and will be discussed later on.
120.Pp
121The device driver should allocate memory, whether memory suitable for a
122DMA transfer or otherwise, to perform the transfer.
123For all memory allocated, it should honor the values in
124.Fa usb_flags
125to determine whether or not it should block for allocations.
126.Pp
127For isochronous-out transfers which are one-shot transfers, the driver
128should verify that the sum of all of the individual packet counts
129matches the message block length of the data.
130If it does not, then the driver should return
131.Sy USB_INVALID_ARGS .
132.Pp
133If the driver successfully schedules the I/O, then it should return
134.Sy USB_SUCCESS .
135When the I/O completes, it must call
136.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F
137with
138.Fa usrp .
139If the transfer fails, but the driver returned
140.Sy USB_SUCCESS ,
141it still must call
142.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F
143and should specify an error there.
144.Pp
145The driver is responsible for timing out all one-shot outgoing requests.
146As there is no timeout member in the isochronous request structure, then
147the timeout should be set to
148.Sy HCDI_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT .
149.Ss Periodic Transfers
150All isochronous-in transfers are periodic transfers.
151Once a periodic transfer is initiated, every time data is received the driver
152should call the
153.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F
154function with updated data.
155.Pp
156When a periodic transfer is initiated, many controller drivers will
157allocate multiple transfers up front and schedule them all.
158Many drivers do this to ensure that data isn't lost between servicing the first
159transfer and scheduling the next.
160The number of such transfers used depends on the polling frequency specified in
161the endpoint descriptor.
162.Pp
163Unless an error occurs, the driver must not use the original isochronous
164request,
165.Fa usrp .
166Instead, it should duplicate the request through the
167.Xr usba_hcdi_dup_isoc_req 9F
168function before calling
169.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F .
170.Pp
171The driver should return the original transfer in one of the following
172conditions:
173.Bl -bullet
174.It
175A pipe reset request came in from the
176.Xr usba_hcdi_pipe_reset 9E
177entry point.
178.It
179A request to stop polling came in from the
180.Xr usba_hcdi_pipe_stop_isoc_polling 9E
181entry point.
182.It
183A request to close the pipe came in from the
184.Xr usba_hcdi_pipe_close 9E
185entry point.
186.It
187An out of memory condition occurred.
188The caller should call
189.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F
190with the code
191.Sy USB_CR_NO_RESOURCES .
192.It
193Some other transfer error occurred.
194.El
195.Ss Callback Handling
196When the isochronous transfer completes, the driver should consider the
197following items to determine what actions it should take on the
198callback:
199.Sy USB_SUCCESS .
200Otherwise, it should return the appropriate USB error.
201If uncertain, use
202.Sy USB_FAILURE .
203.Bl -bullet
204.It
205If the transfer timed out, it should remove the transfer from the
206outstanding list, queue the next transfer, and return the transfer back
207to the OS with the error code
208.Sy USB_CR_TIMEOUT
209with
210.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F .
211.It
212If the transfer failed, it should find the appropriate error and call
213.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F
214with that error.
215.It
216If the transfer succeeded, but less data was transferred than expected,
217consult the
218.Sy isoc_attributes
219member of the
220.Fa usrp .
221If the
222.Sy USB_ATTRS_SHORT_XFER_OK
223flag is not present, then the driver should call
224.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F
225with the error
226.Sy USB_CR_DATA_UNDERRUN .
227.It
228If the transfer was going to the host, then the driver should copy the
229data into the transfer's message block and update the
230.Sy b_wptr
231member of the
232.Xr mblk 9S .
233.It
234The driver should update the
235.Sy isoc_pkt_actual_length
236member of the
237.Sy isoc_pkt_descr
238array of the
239.Xr usb_isoc_req 9S
240structure with the actual transfer amounts.
241.It
242If everything was successful, call
243.Xr usba_hcdi_cb 9F
244with the code
245.Sy USB_CR_OK .
246.It
247If this was a periodic transfer, it should reschedule the transfer.
248.El
249.Sh RETURN VALUES
250Upon successful completion, the
251.Fn usba_hcdi_pipe_isoc_xfer
252function should return
253function should return
254.Sy USB_SUCCESS .
255Otherwise, it should return the appropriate USB error.
256If uncertain, use
257.Sy USB_FAILURE .
