- - Improving the USB stack in FreeBSD - - -

Technical contact: Luigi Rizzo

- -

The USB stack in FreeBSD suffers from a few problems, including - lack of functionality (e.g. isochronous support for USB2 devices), - lack of documentation (most of the code is undocumented and - derives from other BSD implementations), lack of support (there - is not, to our knowledge, active development of the stack), - and the fact that it is still running under the Giant lock.

- -

There is an alternate USB stack under development but it also - suffers from its own share of problems: while it supports - isochronous transfers for USB2 and does not run under Giant, it is - also almost completely undocumented, and it exports a different API - from the current one, which in turn causes portability problems for - device drivers that run on top of USB. Additionally, it is not in - widespread use.

- -

The goal of this project is to improve the FreeBSD stack in one - of the following ways:

- -
    -
  • Add documentation and isochronous USB2 transfers to the existing - driver. Documentation also includes a detailed description of the - locking requirements to ease the move to a different locking - architecture;
    • -
  • Add documentation and a compatibility layer to the 'new' usb - stack, and verify that the basic functionality is preserved for - widely used drivers (umass, mouse, keyboard, etc.). - This work will likely require some debugging of the new code - which we expect to be less tested than the existing one, and so - more prone to undetected bugs.
    • -
- -

The production of suitable documentation in the source is a key - requirement of the project.
