            Bug ID: 231076
           Summary: libusb_cancel_transfer() does NOT cancel a transfer
                    after the USB device is removed
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.4-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: usb
          Assignee: u...@freebsd.org
          Reporter: ludovic.rousseau+free...@gmail.com

I am the author of the CCID driver: a driver for smart card readers compliant
to the USB CCID specification.

My driver uses /usr/lib/libusb.so.3
$ ldd /usr/local/lib/pcsc/drivers/ifd-ccid.bundle/Contents/FreeBSD/libccid.so 
/usr/local/lib/pcsc/drivers/ifd-ccid.bundle/Contents/FreeBSD/libccid.so:
        libusb.so.3 => /usr/lib/libusb.so.3 (0x2821c000)
        libthr.so.3 => /lib/libthr.so.3 (0x2822d000)
        libc.so.7 => /lib/libc.so.7 (0x2807a000)


In my driver I use a transfer on an USB interrupt pipe to wait for card
movements events (a card is inserted or removed in the reader) with a timeout
of 10 minutes.
I use the asynchronous calls of libusb. The source of my function
InterruptRead() is available at
https://github.com/LudovicRousseau/CCID/blob/master/src/ccid_usb.c#L1294

When a USB reader is removed I have to cleanup and unload the driver so it
cancels any transfer on the interrupt pipe. To do that I use
libusb_cancel_transfer() in my function InterruptStop(). see
https://github.com/LudovicRousseau/CCID/blob/master/src/ccid_usb.c#L1380

My problem is that libusb_cancel_transfer() returns with LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_FOUND
(because the USB device has been removed and is no more present?) and the
current transfer is NOT cancelled. My driver is still blocked in the
libusb_handle_events_completed() waiting for the function to return.

I looked at the FreeBSD libusb code. The error code LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_FOUND is
returned just at the beginning of the libusb_cancel_transfer() function at
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/lib/libusb/libusb10.c#L1501

I have no patch to propose.
Maybe libusb_cancel_transfer() should try to wake up
libusb_handle_events_completed() even if the USB device is no more present.

The problem is very easy to reproduce on my side.
