okay, but we don't... Do you wanna send some patches?

another thing to keep in mind is that we're trying to be a USB-compliant
stack. Gadget Framework was never meant to be a testing ground for the
Host Stack. There are VERY flexible tools designed specifically for that
in market.

True but we still have GadgetFS and FunctionFS and no one (apart from the vendor who can sign his platform image) can guarantee that userspace that uses those interfaces is USB compliant...


Maybe, companies who are investing in Fuzzying, should just invest in
one of those tools instead of rellying on a stack that WANTS to send
compliant USB-packets at all times?


Hmmm but apart from companies there are tons of hobbyist or students (like mine;)) who are trying to build useful tools using cheap and popular hardware. Take USBProxy[1] or GadgetFS backend for umap2[2] as an example.
