you don't need to have any clues about DFU internals to realise that this fixes an actual bug, see below: >> drivers/usb/gadget/f_dfu.c | 2 +- >> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/usb/gadget/f_dfu.c b/drivers/usb/gadget/f_dfu.c >> index 8e7c981657..64cdfa7c98 100644 >> --- a/drivers/usb/gadget/f_dfu.c >> +++ b/drivers/usb/gadget/f_dfu.c >> @@ -159,7 +159,7 @@ static void dnload_request_complete(struct usb_ep *ep, >> struct usb_request *req) >> int ret; >> >> ret = dfu_write(dfu_get_entity(f_dfu->altsetting), req->buf, >> - req->length, f_dfu->blk_seq_num); >> + req->actual, f_dfu->blk_seq_num); DFU driver queues a request to USB controller. Per the gadget API req->length contains maximum amount of data to be transmitted. req->actual is written by USB controller with the actual amount of data that we transmitted. In the case of IN (TX), upon completion req->length and req->actual should always be equal (unless errors show up, etc) In the case of OUT (RX), upon completion req->actual MAY BE less than req->length and that's not an error. Say host sent us a short packet which causes early termination of transfer. With that in mind, let's consider the situation where we're receiving data from host using DFU. Let's assume that we have a 4096 byte buffer for transfers and we're receiving a binary that's 7679 bytes in size. Here's what we will do (pseudo-code): int remaining = 7679; char buf[4096]; while (remaining) { req->length = 4096; req->buf = buf; usb_ep_queue(req); /* wait for completion */ remaining -= req->actual; dfu_write(buf, req->length); /* this is the error */ } Can you see here that in the last packet we will write 4096 bytes when we should write only 3583? -- balbi
