Hello Everyone,
I was developing a new scanner with chip SQ113C. Many of that was complete,
but it have an strange bug.
I was runing this driver on Mac OS 10.2 it write data ,read data are all ok.
But when i move it to Mac OS10.4, it have very strange bug. when i plug the
scanner to the usb port(which is usb keyboard plug beside),it was working good.
but when i plug to the other 3 usb port(my apple all have 5 usb ports),it can
not read data! so strange!
My Apple is Power PC G4 400Mhz. it's an old Power Pc. At last, I was likely to
found the answer. I use GetPipeProperties (the member of
IOUSBInterfaceInterface),to get info of the BULK IN(maybe it was INTERRUPT)
pipe,i found out that the different is maxPacketSize!!
The working usb port is 64 ,and the bad usb port is 512 . In my code i use
ReadPipe() and WritePipe() with 64 bytes as an Packet.
like this:
kernResult = (*m_Interface)->WritePipe(m_Interface, BULK_OUT_ENDPOINT,
lpbuf,length);
when i change the length with 512X is was working again. but it doesn't what i
need. change to 512X will change so many code!
so , my questing is why the usb port in OS10.2 maxPacketSize is 64,but in OS
10.4 it change to 512 ? and what does the maxPacketSize mean??
The sane backend(like gt68xx) was great, it working with all usb port,but the
code is different with me(i don't want to change so many code.). the develop
resource of Mac was so poor(some like endpoint and pipes ,what is the
relationshi of them? ), i can't find the what the problem was.
any suggestiong will be appreciate . thanks.
Peter
