illumos USB HCD private

This is a private data structure that is not part of the stable DDI. It may be removed or changed at any time.

The usba_device_t structure is used by the illumos USB Architecture (USBA) to represent a physical USB device. While a given USB device may be a composite device, a USB device that implements two or more classes, there will still only be a single device structure. A USB device is always plugged into a port on some hub, excepting the root hub, and has an address on the USB fabric.

Many of the USB HCD driver operations pass a usba_device_t to the HCD driver. The usba_device_t should be used by an HCD driver in a fashion. A subset of the structure's fields that are useful for HCD drivers to read are listed below.

In addition, there are two optional HCD entry points that interact with this structure and give the change for a driver to store per-device state. If the driver implements the usba_hcdi_device_init(9E) and usba_hcdi_device_fini(9E) functions, then the private data stored from usba_hcdi_device_init(9E) can be retrieved with usba_hcdi_get_device_private(9F).

The usba_device_t structure includes the following members:

dev_info_t		*usb_dip
usba_hubdi_t		*usb_hubdi;
usb_addr_t		usb_addr;
usb_dev_descr_t		*usb_dev_descr;
char			*usb_mfg_str;
char			*usb_product_str;
char			*usb_serialno_str;
usb_port_status_t	usb_port_status;
usb_port_t		usb_port;
usba_device_t		*usb_hs_hub_usba_dev;
usba_device_t		*usb_parent_hub;

The member is a pointer to the device's dev_info_t structure. This generally is used if the HCD driver wants to get naming information for diagnostic purposes. When duplicating requests for isochronous and interrupt requests, HCD drivers should use the dev_info_t from the usba_pipe_handle_data_t(9S).

The member can be used to determine whether or not the usba_device_t in question is a hub or not. HCD drivers should compare this member to NULL. If the member is not NULL, then this USB device corresponds to a hub.

the member indicates the address of the USB device on the broader USB bus. Note, that the actual address assigned to the device may be different, especially if the HCD driver implements the optional usba_hcdi_device_address(9E) entry point. See the section in usba_hcdi(9E) for more information.

The member points to the device descriptor for a given device. This structure is documented in usb_dev_descr(9S). This member may be NULL as it may not have been populated during device attachment. This member may be NULL. HCD drivers should always check for NULL before dereferencing it.

The member may contain a pointer to a character string with the name of the manufacturer as retrieved from the device. This member may be NULL. HCD drivers should always check for NULL before dereferencing it.

The member may contain a pointer to a character string with the name of the product as retrieved from the device. This member may be NULL. HCD drivers should always check for NULL before dereferencing it.

The member may contain a pointer to a character string with the serial number of the device as retrieved from the device. This member may be NULL. HCD drivers should always check for NULL before dereferencing it.

The contains a usb_port_status_t(9T) entry, which describes the current negotiated speed of the device. See usb_port_status_t(9T) for more information on the values and types.

The member contains the port on a hub that the device is plugged into. Ports are always numbered starting at 1.

The member is set when there is a parent high-speed hub. This is most notable for low- and full- speed devices which require split transaction support. This points to the structure that is the closest high-speed parent hub. This member should always be set to NULL for super-speed devices. A device operating a super-speed can never be plugged into a high-speed hub.

The member points to the usba_device_t structure that the device in question is plugged into. If the device represents the root hub, then this field will be NULL.
