That is, cancelling a transfer on the host doesn't necessarily mean it has to be cancelled on the gadget.

Also, what if there is no active transfer? That is, what if the transaction that got an error on the host appeared to be successful on the gadget and it was the last transaction in the final transfer queued for the endpoint? How would the UDC driver notify the gadget driver in this situation? > This is observed in > UASP driver in Windows and how various consumer UASP devices handle it. I don't understand what you're saying here. How can you observe whether a transfer is cancelled in a consumer UAS device? And how does the consumer device resync with the host? > There no eqivalent of Bulk-Only Mass Storage Reset request from the > class protocol. We still have the USB analyzer traces for this. Can you post an example?

Do you have any traces that were made for a High-speed connection (say, using a USB-2 cable)? It would probably be easier to follow than a SuperSpeed example. Alan Stern
