USB_GET_DESCRIPTOR(9) | USB Core APIs | USB_GET_DESCRIPTOR(9) |
NAME¶
usb_get_descriptor - issues a generic GET_DESCRIPTOR request
SYNOPSIS¶
int usb_get_descriptor(struct usb_device * dev, unsigned char type, unsigned char index, void * buf, int size);
ARGUMENTS¶
dev
type
index
buf
size
CONTEXT¶
!in_interrupt ()
DESCRIPTION¶
Gets a USB descriptor. Convenience functions exist to simplify getting some types of descriptors. Use usb_get_string or usb_string for USB_DT_STRING. Device (USB_DT_DEVICE) and configuration descriptors (USB_DT_CONFIG) are part of the device structure. In addition to a number of USB-standard descriptors, some devices also use class-specific or vendor-specific descriptors.
This call is synchronous, and may not be used in an interrupt context.
Returns the number of bytes received on success, or else the status code returned by the underlying usb_control_msg call.
