Hi,

I'm sending firmware to usb device with this code:
But it`s falling because the request firmware call didn't put my firmware in
a DMA capable area. That's my guess.

So how to request firmware in DMA capable area?
kmalloc your buffer used for USB transfers.
Thanks, worked.

Do you have a pointer to your driver anywhere?  The code you show below
isn't in any kernel source that I can see.

I`m working to get permission for that.

Quick question: Why my usb driver doesn't unload after I disconnected it ?

This driver is meant to load a new firmware into the board only. And after the bootloader finished the download the board with show it self with a different vendor and product id.

All the firmware download in done in probe, so there is no need for this driver after that. Can my driver unload it self ?


thanks,

greg k-h

Thanks!

Lucas
