As a rule, all the HCDs should +behave the same except for transfer speed dependent behaviors and the +way certain faults are reported. + + +************************************************************************** +* Error codes returned by usb_submit_urb * +************************************************************************** + +Non-USB-specific: + +0 URB submission went fine + +-ENOMEM no memory for allocation of internal structures + +USB-specific: + +-ENODEV specified USB-device or bus doesn't exist + +-ENOENT specified interface or endpoint does not exist or + is not enabled + +-ENXIO host controller driver does not support queuing of this type + of urb.

That's because transfers often involve several packets, so that +one or more packets could finish before an error stops further endpoint I/O. + +For isochronous URBs, the urb status value is non-zero only if the URB is +unlinked, the device is removed, the host controller is disabled, or the total +transferred length is less than the requested length and the URB_SHORT_NOT_OK +flag is set. Completion handlers for isochronous URBs should only see +urb->status set to zero, -ENOENT, -ECONNRESET, -ESHUTDOWN, or -EREMOTEIO. +Individual frame descriptor status fields may report more status codes. + + +0 Transfer completed successfully + +-ENOENT URB was synchronously unlinked by usb_unlink_urb + +-EINPROGRESS URB still pending, no results yet + (That is, if drivers see this it's a bug.) + +-EPROTO (*, **) a) bitstuff error + b) no response packet received within the + prescribed bus turn-around time + c) unknown USB error + +-EILSEQ (*, **) a) CRC mismatch + b) no response packet received within the + prescribed bus turn-around time + c) unknown USB error + + Note that often the controller hardware does not + distinguish among cases a), b), and c), so a + driver cannot tell whether there was a protocol + error, a failure to respond (often caused by + device disconnect), or some other fault. + +-ETIME (**) No response packet received within the prescribed + bus turn-around time.
