NAME

usb_fill_int_urb - macro to help initialize a interrupt urb  

SYNOPSIS

void usb_fill_int_urb(struct urb * urb, struct usb_device * dev, unsigned int pipe, void * transfer_buffer, int buffer_length, usb_complete_t complete_fn, void * context, int interval);
 

ARGUMENTS

urb

pointer to the urb to initialize.

dev

pointer to the struct usb_device for this urb.

pipe

the endpoint pipe

transfer_buffer

pointer to the transfer buffer

buffer_length

length of the transfer buffer

complete_fn

pointer to the usb_complete_t function

context

what to set the urb context to.

interval

what to set the urb interval to, encoded like the endpoint descriptor's bInterval value.
 

DESCRIPTION

Initializes a interrupt urb with the proper information needed to submit it to a device.

Note that High Speed and SuperSpeed interrupt endpoints use a logarithmic encoding of the endpoint interval, and express polling intervals in microframes (eight per millisecond) rather than in frames (one per millisecond).

Wireless USB also uses the logarithmic encoding, but specifies it in units of 128us instead of 125us. For Wireless USB devices, the interval is passed through to the host controller, rather than being translated into microframe units.
