Add a new module for USB chapter 9 structs and constants.
The goal of this patch is to provide safe Rust wrappers around the C
types from include/uapi/linux/usb/ch9.h.
These are needed by drivers and other USB abstractions (interfaces,
endpoints, URBs, etc.).

The goal of this patch is to create safe USB host interface and endpoint
descriptors necessary for USB driver development. Specifically, this
safely wraps the C side `struct usb_host_interface` and
`struct usb_host_endpoint` types.
Additionally, support for querying and configuring USB interface
altsettings is added to the existing Rust `Interface` and `Device`
types.
The `Device` struct is made public for two reasons:
- Sending control URBs in a way that makes it clear that endpoint 0 is a
shared device endpoint, not specific to an interface.
- Allows for the possiblity of a future driver that binds to the USB
device rather than an interface.

Please see commit f12140f21acb ("rust: usb: don't retain device context for the
interface parent").
We can't derive the device context of a USB device from a USB interface. Please
also see the device context documentation in [1].
USB device drivers are separate from USB interface drivers, we can't assume that
a USB device is bound to a USB device driver just because a USB interface (of
that same device) is bound to an USB interface driver.
The same is true from the Core context, which means the device is in a bus
device callback, where the device lock is held.
This is also the reason why I keep proposing to only expose simple forwarding
helpers on usb::Interface to implement URBs (see also [2] and [3]).
An URB requires either usb::Interface<Bound> or, for a USB device driver,
usb::Device<Bound>. But since we can't derive usb::Device<Bound> from
usb::Interface<Bound> a simple forwarding helper does the trick.

That makes sense, thank you for pointing this out. I should have taken a
look at the git log for that line to try to understand its background.
I'll remove the usb::Device<device::Bound>::set_interface() and
usb::Device<device::Bound>::control_msg() implementations in my next
revision (since they will no longer be used) and just implement them on
usb::Interface<device::Bound>.

I'd keep them unsafely on usb::Device and then safely expose forwarding via
usb::Device<Bound> and usb::Interface<Bound> once required.

Hi,
you are making me think that the fundamental assumptions of the USB
layer are ill documented. If you find this to be the case, please tell
me what should be improved and I'll see what I can do.
Very well, this will be a bit longer, because I'll try to explain:
For now, there is exactly one device driver, named "generic" (yes,
imaginative). However, its behavior in that regard is rather fundamental,
so if another driver were ever to be written, its drivers would not
be normal interface drivers.
In principle the chain goes as such:
Device -> Configuration -> Interfaces
The dependencies are in that order. You can have a configuration without
interfaces and a device without configurations (it would be useless, but
it is within spec)
The life times are limited in the same way. An interface never lives
longer than its configuration and a configuration does not live longer
than its device.
This is controlled by code in drivers/usb/core/generic.c
int usb_generic_driver_probe(struct usb_device *udev)
{
int err, c;
/* Choose and set the configuration. This registers the interfaces
* with the driver core and lets interface drivers bind to them.
*/
if (udev->authorized == 0)
dev_info(&udev->dev, "Device is not authorized for usage\n");
else {
c = usb_choose_configuration(udev);
if (c >= 0) {
err = usb_set_configuration(udev, c);
This is the usual way a configuration is created. [You need not worry about
the other ways. They also call usb_set_configuration().]
Also important for this discussion is that this cannot fail:
if (err && err != -ENODEV) {
dev_err(&udev->dev, "can't set config #%d, error %d\n",
c, err);
/* This need not be fatal. The user can try to
* set other configurations. */
}
}
}
/* USB device state == configured ... usable */
usb_notify_add_device(udev);
return 0;
}
A configuration is destroyed by usb_set_configuration(). This
is used in disconnect:
void usb_generic_driver_disconnect(struct usb_device *udev)
{
usb_notify_remove_device(udev);
/* if this is only an unbind, not a physical disconnect, then
* unconfigure the device */
if (udev->actconfig)
usb_set_configuration(udev, -1);
}
( -1 means without replacement)
You can see that there is no way a configuration and thereby its interfaces
can last longer than its device.
An interface driver is allowed to talk to two sets of endpoints
1. endpoints associated with interfaces it has claimed, accepted or is probed for
2. endpoint 0 of the device whose interfaces it has claimed, accepted or is probed for
(Please do not ask about cdc-wdm)
That does _not_ mean that a driver can communicate to them at all times. Communication
is limited as follows:
Communication may begin when
1. probe() is called
2. usb_claim_interface() returns without error
3. resume() is called
4. reset_resume() is called
5. post_reset() is called
Communication must cease
1. before disconnect() returns
2. before suspend() returns
3. before pre_reset() returns
4. before probe() is exited with an error return
The only exception to that is that you may schedule a reset.
I hope this makes things a bit clearer. Please ask questions
if anything is unclear. I'd be happy to help.
This area may be a bit murky because only the states of devices
are named and documented. There simply is no data structure
equivalent to the binding of a driver and an interface, hence
we cannot just give interfaces a state.
Regards
Oliver

So, what you're saying is that, in the generic case, there is a guarantee that
if a usb_interface is bound to a usb_driver, then the usb_interface's parent
usb_device is also bound to a usb_device_driver.
But the relevant question is whether this always holds. In a previous discussion
[1] Alan explained that it currently doesn't hold.
Note that I'm not looking at this from a USB topology perspective, but from a
driver model perspective. All I'm saying is that usb::Device<Bound> from the
driver model side means "it is guaranteed that the usb_device is bound to a
usb_device_driver" and therefore can implement functions that rely on this
invariant.
Analogously, usb::Interface<Bound> means that the usb_interface is bound to a
usb_driver. So, if we want to be able to derive usb::Device<Bound> from
usb::Interface<Bound> it must always be guaranteed that this holds, not just in
the most common case.
As for the question whether it should be
let dev = intf.device();
dev.bulk_recv();
or
intf.bulk_recv();
the former does not work if we can't uphold the guarantee that
usb::Device<Bound> follows from usb::Interface<Bound>; at least not without an
additional type state wrapper.
However, I don't see why we don't want to have the helper regardless. A
usb_driver primarily deals with the usb_interface device, so that makes perfect
sense from a driver model perspective: The "device" a usb_driver deals with is
the usb_interface.
I think our main disconnect comes from the fact that you see this from a USB
stack topology point of view, whereas I see it from a driver model topology
point of view.
From the driver core perspective a usb_interface is just another device that
happens to have a usb_device parent. Lifecycle wise any device resources
requested by a usb_driver are tied to the lifetime of the usb_interface being
bound to the usb_driver.
The semantic relationship of a usb_interface and a usb_device is a USB subsystem
implementation detail, but it doesn't change the core lifecycle and ownership
rules as far as the driver model is concerned.
That said, the question of having or not having those helpers is "bikeshedding"
about USB topology vs. driver model perspective and either seems reasonable
IMHO. However, it has a correctness implication, as giving out
usb::Device<Bound> from usb::Interface<Bound> would currently be unsound as by
[1]; deriving usb::Device<Core> from usb::Interface<Core> is never correct, as
it implies being in the scope of a device lock protected bus callback.
> There simply is no data structure equivalent to the binding of a driver and an

I don't know what you mean by this.
> hence we cannot just give interfaces a state.
Of course we can, and we have to. As mentioned above, from a driver core
perspective a usb_interface is just another device, with an own struct device it
embedds, its own device lock and its own driver structure (struct usb_driver) it
can be bound to.
The device types states match exactly this. For instance the 'Core' context
represents a device that is given out in a bus callback while the device lock is
held, such that we can restrict methods that require this scope to this context.
The same goes for the 'Bound' device context state. In the case of usb_interface
it means that the usb_interface is bound to the usb_driver.

At first I thought that we ought to have such a guarantee. But in fact
we don't, because the user can at any time write to a USB device's
bConfigurationValue sysfs attribute even if the device isn't bound to a
driver. This can create interfaces which may then be bound to drivers.
I just tried it and it worked.
This wasn't the original intent, but I don't see any good reason to
prevent people from doing it.

I don't see why Rust needs to distinguish between a USB device that is
bound and one that is unbound. There isn't much you can do with one
that can't be done with the other.

Similarly, I don't see why Rust needs to distinguish between an
interface that is bound and one that isn't.
Even from the point of view of the device core, a device that is bound
to a driver is the same kind of data structure as one that isn't bound;
the only difference is whether the ->driver pointer is set.
I'm aware that Rust has separate types for pointers that may be NULL and
pointers that cannot be NULL. Putting that into the language helps
prevent a lot of bugs. How would making the language be aware of
whether a device is bound to a driver be similarly useful?

Add abstractions for the USB Request Block (URB).
Reiterating the goals and how they are achieved:
1. No `unsafe` needed in driver code. This means providing a way for a
driver to safely access private data sent with the URB.
- This is accomplished using a trampoline-like mechanism to reconstruct
a valid Urb, allowing us to access a driver's passed completion callback
and provide it the URB result.
2. Drivers are forced to handle the URB status in their completion
callback before accessing the URB data.
- This is accomplished by wrapping the completed URB in a struct such
that the URB status must be checked before it transitions to a type
where the data is accessible.
3. Dropping an URB ensures it is not in-flight and frees its resources.
- This is accomplished by creating a custom `Drop` implementation that
kills the URB and performs the necessary actions to free its resources.
4. The URB can be safely resubmitted from the completion callback.
- This is trivial, just a resubmit method that consumes the URB to avoid
multiple resubmits or accessing data after submission.
The typestate pattern is used to flag an urb handle as either idle or
submitted. Once a driver submits an urb with an idle handle, the handle
moves to an active state that the driver must hold (otherwise its
`Drop` will run, killing the URB and freeing its resources).
Pipe and urb creation functions are created to support future bulk,
interrupt, and control requests.

Add a Rust driver for the I-O Data GV-USB2 Composite-USB Video
Capture Device. Leverages the USB abstractions from patches 1-3.
The GV-USB2 contains an STK1150, a USB bridge microchip for converting
old analog video signals into digital data. The STK1160's datasheet
is available, but the same is not true for the STK1150. However, it
seems that most of the registers are the same as the STK1160's.
This implementation demonstrates the ability to send and receive data
via control and isochronous USB transfers. Due to a lack of V4L2 and
ALSA abstractions, this initial implementation only exposes data from
an audio endpoint via debugfs. I would like to expand on this driver
later.

In addition to raw control messages, this can leverage the generic I/O backend
infrastructure, so you don't have to roll your own write_reg() function and use
the register!() infrastructure instead. See also [1] and [2].

Interesting, I had briefly glanced at this macro and was disappointed
that it didn't seem to apply well to my situation, but I see that the
Io and IoCapable traits are generic in a way that does support this.
I'll include this in my next revision, thank you!

Yep, I saw that series pop up while I was working on this one.
By and large there is not a lot of overlap, so I felt that my patch
series was okay to submit.

Have you talked to the media people about adding a Rust driver?

I have not. I was actually wondering if this belongs in
drivers/staging/media, given how much work still needs to be done for it
to support basic functionality. I had seen some v4l2 Rust abstraction
work done but not merged in, so I had hoped this could eventually be a
user of that work. Still trying to get a lay of the land, this is my
first attempt at contributing to the kernel.
