Alternate setting 1 must be selected for interface 0 on the model that I received. Else the rest is identical.

I don't have any ttusb device here, but I doubt that this would work. 

Alternates should be selected depending on the bandwidth needed. The right way
is to write some logic that will get the maximum packet size for each mode, between the
alternates that provide the type of transfer (Bulk or ISOC) accepted by the driver.

You may take a look at staging/tm6000 or at drivers/media/video/em28xx or at
drivers/media/video/gspca to see a few examples on how to do that. IMHO, the
alternates selection code at tm6000 is in better shape than the others I know.

Cheers,
Mauro.

Hi,

It is already tested and works fine.

What I see is that interface 1 does not have an alternate setting like the 
driver code expects, while interface 0 does. So it is the opposite of what the 
driver expects. Maybe the manufacturer changed something. Endpoints are still 
the same.

Please find attached an USB descriptor dump from this device.

Right, but this driver doesn't do this. It only selects a working one.

This will work for you, but it will likely break for the others. Your patch
is assuming that returning an error if selecting alt 1 is enough to know that
alt 0 should be used.

That sometimes happen. Or maybe you just need a different size.

Hmm... assuming that the driver is using ISOC transfers, the difference between
alt 0 and alt 1 is that, on alt0, the mwMaxPacketSize is 0 (so, you can't use it
for isoc transfers), while, on alt 1, wMaxPacketSize is 0x390.

What the driver should be doing is to select an alt mode where the wMaxPacketSize is 
big enough to handle the transfer.

Calculating what "big enough"   is device-dependent, but, basically, a 480 Mbps
USB bus is capable of providing 800 isoc slots per interval. If the packets are bigger,
the max bandwidth is bigger.

You're able to see the amount of packets per interval by doing a cat /proc/bus/usb/devices:

T:  Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=480  MxCh= 8
B:  Alloc=  0/800 us ( 0%), #Int=  0, #Iso=  0

The "B:" line above shows the USB bandwidth usage.

I can write the code to do that. Summed up:

1) Search interface 0, for alternate settings that have an ISOC-IN and 
wMaxPacket != 0. Select this alternate setting.

2) Search interface 1, for alternate settings that have an ISOC-IN and 
wMaxPacket != 0. Select this alternate setting.
 
3) Done.

Do you think this will work better?

This is a FULL speed device, max 10MBit/second.

Do you need this information to proceed with the patch?

Hmm... USB 1.1 devices are even more limited on the amount of used bandwidth.
The above procedure is better than the one you've proposed, but yet you may
not be able to receive channels with higher bandwidths.

The usb "max" limit is lower than the maximum bandwidth. I think that full
speed provides 900 isoc slots per interval, but the interval for usb 1.1 is
higher (1s, while the interval for usb 2.0 is 125 us), but you need to double 
check such constraints at the USB 1.1 and 2.0 specs, as I may be wrong on that,
as I read it a long time ago ;)

The proper way would be to have a function that would dynamically select
the alternate depending on the channel bandwidth and on the stream needs.

Someone might of course just write a code that selects the highest wMaxPacket,
but this would cause some troubles if another device is connected to the
USB 1.1 bus.

Hi,

There are 1000 frames per second when using Full Speed USB. I know the device 
cannot receive all streams, but it is very well suited for DVB radio.

No, it is 900. See [1]:

[1] http://www.google.com.br/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBgQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmprolab.teipir.gr%2Fvivlio80X86%2Fusb11.pdf&ei=DrzaTfD5HqW90AHY-Jn8Aw&usg=AFQjCNHZW7ogFrjqoim1lTduQTHTDJoAUg

"5.6.4 Isochronous Transfer Bus Access Constraints
 Isochronous transfers can be used only by full-speed devices.
 The USB requires that no more than 90% of any frame be allocated for periodic (isochronous and
 interrupt) transfers."

90% of 1000 frames is 900 frames/s. That's the maximum limit for ISOC transfers.

Yeah, for DVB radio, that's ok, but the driver should be ok also for other
usages. Of course, streams with > 9Mbps won't fit on it, but if the driver
is not selecting the maximum alternate, the bandwidth limit will be even
smaller than that.

Hi,

FULL speed USB has 1000 frames per second which is constant. During each frame 
that last 1ms you can send max 1200 bytes approximately simplex. You are 
allowed to use up to 90% of 1200 bytes, which is 1080 bytes which is just 
above the maximum of 1023 bytes for isochronous transfers.

Hope you see now!
