Thanks, this is good to know, for testing where multiple TX I/Os are pending
prior to fault.
I found a way to set up the TX -EPIPE fault administratively:
retval = usb_control_msg(ir->usbdev, usb_sndctrlpipe(ir->usbdev, 0),
USB_REQ_SET_FEATURE, USB_RECIP_ENDPOINT,
USB_ENDPOINT_HALT, usb_pipeendpoint(ir->pipe_out),
NULL, 0, USB_CTRL_SET_TIMEOUT);
dev_dbg(ir->dev, "set halt retval, %d", retval);
and have replications now for TX error and lock -out. Error occurs for every
TX. No message flooding otherwise, as we expect. The RX side remains working.
