Indeed, we require a filter for the alt value, and my suggestion is to set the filter to allow alt values up to two.

The set_alt callback function in the f_fs driver is currently resetting the associated endpoints by disabling and enabling them again for positive alt values.
Additionally, it sets ffs_event FUNCTIONFS_ENABLE, which provide userspaces notifications about some change.
It appears that the same event mechanism is used when there is a request to set the alt setting to -1, notifying by FUNCTIONFS_DISABLE.
For example, you can find the link to the Android USB daemon utilizing this FFS event in userspace.
https://gerrit.pixelexperience.org/plugins/gitiles/system_core/+/b36b54cf796d722653ad9bea11284815a3f5eda5/adb/daemon/usb.cpp#331

It's evident that the f_fs driver significantly differs from other gadget drivers (e.g., ncm, uac), where major control resides in userspace.

I believe there's no need for a mechanism to notify userspace for the f_fs driver.
Userspace triggers the data read, eventually called by usb_ep_queue() in f_fs.
As soon as set_alt resets the associated endpoint, the UDC driver should call the endpoint callback with an error, smoothly terminating the userspace system call with the appropriate error.

I couldn't find any userspace notification implementation in tcm_set_alt.

Please let me correct if sounds inappropriate.

Thanks,
Hardik
