Alt setting and driver load question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Say you have a USB device that wants to default to a new USB class that
may or may not have a driver for it yet.  The USB device wants the newer
behavior whenever possible, but it can also use an older class.

Would the device work on an older system if it used alt setting 0 for
the new class, and alt setting 1 for the old class?  Will the USB core
switch the USB device over to the second alt setting and load the
old class driver?

Or is the device forced to define the old and new class driver endpoints
in the same interface?
