So, if (std->len + dma_len > QTD_MAX_XFER_SIZE) { dma_len = (QTD_MAX_XFER_SIZE / qset->max_packet) * qset->max_packet - std->len; } David -- David Vrabel, Senior Software Engineer, Drivers CSR, Churchill House, Cambridge Business Park, Tel: +44 (0)1223 692562 Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WZ http://www.csr.com/ Member of the CSR plc group of companies.
