28 * \page libusb_io Synchronous and asynchronous device I/O
29 *
30 * \section io_intro Introduction
31 *
32 * If you're using libusb in your application, you're probably wanting to
33 * perform I/O with devices - you want to perform USB data transfers.
34 *
35 * libusb offers two separate interfaces for device I/O. This page aims to
36 * introduce the two in order to help you decide which one is more suitable
37 * for your application. You can also choose to use both interfaces in your
38 * application by considering each transfer on a case-by-case basis.
39 *
40 * Once you have read through the following discussion, you should consult the
41 * detailed API documentation pages for the details:
42 * - \ref libusb_syncio
43 * - \ref libusb_asyncio
44 *
45 * \section theory Transfers at a logical level
46 *
47 * At a logical level, USB transfers typically happen in two parts. For
48 * example, when reading data from a endpoint:
49 * -# A request for data is sent to the device
50 * -# Some time later, the incoming data is received by the host
51 *
52 * or when writing data to an endpoint:
53 *
54 * -# The data is sent to the device
55 * -# Some time later, the host receives acknowledgement from the device that
56 * the data has been transferred.
57 *
58 * There may be an indefinite delay between the two steps. Consider a
59 * fictional USB input device with a button that the user can press. In order
60 * to determine when the button is pressed, you would likely submit a request
61 * to read data on a bulk or interrupt endpoint and wait for data to arrive.
62 * Data will arrive when the button is pressed by the user, which is
63 * potentially hours later.
64 *
65 * libusb offers both a synchronous and an asynchronous interface to performing
66 * USB transfers. The main difference is that the synchronous interface
67 * combines both steps indicated above into a single function call, whereas
68 * the asynchronous interface separates them.
69 *
70 * \section sync The synchronous interface
71 *
72 * The synchronous I/O interface allows you to perform a USB transfer with
73 * a single function call. When the function call returns, the transfer has
74 * completed and you can parse the results.
75 *
76 * If you have used the libusb-0.1 before, this I/O style will seem familiar to
77 * you. libusb-0.1 only offered a synchronous interface.
78 *
79 * In our input device example, to read button presses you might write code
80 * in the following style:
81 \code
82 unsigned char data[4];
83 int actual_length;
84 int r = libusb_bulk_transfer(dev_handle, LIBUSB_ENDPOINT_IN, data, sizeof(data), &actual_length, 0);
85 if (r == 0 && actual_length == sizeof(data)) {
86 // results of the transaction can now be found in the data buffer
87 // parse them here and report button press
88 } else {
89 error();
90 }
91 \endcode
92 *
93 * The main advantage of this model is simplicity: you did everything with
94 * a single simple function call.
95 *
96 * However, this interface has its limitations. Your application will sleep
97 * inside libusb_bulk_transfer() until the transaction has completed. If it
98 * takes the user 3 hours to press the button, your application will be
99 * sleeping for that long. Execution will be tied up inside the library -
100 * the entire thread will be useless for that duration.
101 *
102 * Another issue is that by tying up the thread with that single transaction
103 * there is no possibility of performing I/O with multiple endpoints and/or
104 * multiple devices simultaneously, unless you resort to creating one thread
105 * per transaction.
106 *
107 * Additionally, there is no opportunity to cancel the transfer after the
108 * request has been submitted.
109 *
110 * For details on how to use the synchronous API, see the
111 * \ref libusb_syncio "synchronous I/O API documentation" pages.
112 *
113 * \section async The asynchronous interface
114 *
115 * Asynchronous I/O is the most significant new feature in libusb-1.0.
116 * Although it is a more complex interface, it solves all the issues detailed
117 * above.
118 *
119 * Instead of providing which functions that block until the I/O has complete,
120 * libusb's asynchronous interface presents non-blocking functions which
121 * begin a transfer and then return immediately. Your application passes a
122 * callback function pointer to this non-blocking function, which libusb will
123 * call with the results of the transaction when it has completed.
124 *
125 * Transfers which have been submitted through the non-blocking functions
126 * can be cancelled with a separate function call.
127 *
128 * The non-blocking nature of this interface allows you to be simultaneously
129 * performing I/O to multiple endpoints on multiple devices, without having
130 * to use threads.
131 *
132 * This added flexibility does come with some complications though:
133 * - In the interest of being a lightweight library, libusb does not create
134 * threads and can only operate when your application is calling into it. Your
135 * application must call into libusb from it's main loop when events are ready
136 * to be handled, or you must use some other scheme to allow libusb to
137 * undertake whatever work needs to be done.
138 * - libusb also needs to be called into at certain fixed points in time in
139 * order to accurately handle transfer timeouts.
140 * - Memory handling becomes more complex. You cannot use stack memory unless
141 * the function with that stack is guaranteed not to return until the transfer
142 * callback has finished executing.
143 * - You generally lose some linearity from your code flow because submitting
144 * the transfer request is done in a separate function from where the transfer
145 * results are handled. This becomes particularly obvious when you want to
146 * submit a second transfer based on the results of an earlier transfer.
147 *
148 * Internally, libusb's synchronous interface is expressed in terms of function
149 * calls to the asynchronous interface.
150 *
151 * For details on how to use the asynchronous API, see the
152 * \ref libusb_asyncio "asynchronous I/O API" documentation pages.

156 /**
157 * \page libusb_packetoverflow Packets and overflows
158 *
159 * \section packets Packet abstraction
160 *
161 * The USB specifications describe how data is transmitted in packets, with
162 * constraints on packet size defined by endpoint descriptors. The host must
163 * not send data payloads larger than the endpoint's maximum packet size.
164 *
165 * libusb and the underlying OS abstract out the packet concept, allowing you
166 * to request transfers of any size. Internally, the request will be divided
167 * up into correctly-sized packets. You do not have to be concerned with
168 * packet sizes, but there is one exception when considering overflows.
169 *
170 * \section overflow Bulk/interrupt transfer overflows
171 *
172 * When requesting data on a bulk endpoint, libusb requires you to supply a
173 * buffer and the maximum number of bytes of data that libusb can put in that
174 * buffer. However, the size of the buffer is not communicated to the device -
175 * the device is just asked to send any amount of data.
176 *
177 * There is no problem if the device sends an amount of data that is less than
178 * or equal to the buffer size. libusb reports this condition to you through
179 * the \ref libusb_transfer::actual_length "libusb_transfer.actual_length"
180 * field.
181 *
182 * Problems may occur if the device attempts to send more data than can fit in
183 * the buffer. libusb reports LIBUSB_TRANSFER_OVERFLOW for this condition but
184 * other behaviour is largely undefined: actual_length may or may not be
185 * accurate, the chunk of data that can fit in the buffer (before overflow)
186 * may or may not have been transferred.
187 *
188 * Overflows are nasty, but can be avoided. Even though you were told to
189 * ignore packets above, think about the lower level details: each transfer is
190 * split into packets (typically small, with a maximum size of 512 bytes).
191 * Overflows can only happen if the final packet in an incoming data transfer
192 * is smaller than the actual packet that the device wants to transfer.
193 * Therefore, you will never see an overflow if your transfer buffer size is a
194 * multiple of the endpoint's packet size: the final packet will either
195 * fill up completely or will be only partially filled.
196 */
197
198 /**
199 * @defgroup libusb_asyncio Asynchronous device I/O
200 *
201 * This page details libusb's asynchronous (non-blocking) API for USB device
202 * I/O. This interface is very powerful but is also quite complex - you will
203 * need to read this page carefully to understand the necessary considerations
204 * and issues surrounding use of this interface. Simplistic applications
205 * may wish to consider the \ref libusb_syncio "synchronous I/O API" instead.
206 *
207 * The asynchronous interface is built around the idea of separating transfer
208 * submission and handling of transfer completion (the synchronous model
209 * combines both of these into one). There may be a long delay between
210 * submission and completion, however the asynchronous submission function
211 * is non-blocking so will return control to your application during that
212 * potentially long delay.
213 *
214 * \section asyncabstraction Transfer abstraction
215 *
216 * For the asynchronous I/O, libusb implements the concept of a generic
217 * transfer entity for all types of I/O (control, bulk, interrupt,
218 * isochronous). The generic transfer object must be treated slightly
219 * differently depending on which type of I/O you are performing with it.
220 *
221 * This is represented by the public libusb_transfer structure type.
222 *
223 * \section asynctrf Asynchronous transfers
224 *
225 * We can view asynchronous I/O as a 5 step process:
226 * -# <b>Allocation</b>: allocate a libusb_transfer
227 * -# <b>Filling</b>: populate the libusb_transfer instance with information
228 * about the transfer you wish to perform
229 * -# <b>Submission</b>: ask libusb to submit the transfer
230 * -# <b>Completion handling</b>: examine transfer results in the
231 * libusb_transfer structure
232 * -# <b>Deallocation</b>: clean up resources
233 *
234 *
235 * \subsection asyncalloc Allocation
236 *
237 * This step involves allocating memory for a USB transfer. This is the
238 * generic transfer object mentioned above. At this stage, the transfer
239 * is "blank" with no details about what type of I/O it will be used for.
240 *
241 * Allocation is done with the libusb_alloc_transfer() function. You must use
242 * this function rather than allocating your own transfers.
243 *
244 * \subsection asyncfill Filling
245 *
246 * This step is where you take a previously allocated transfer and fill it
247 * with information to determine the message type and direction, data buffer,
248 * callback function, etc.
249 *
250 * You can either fill the required fields yourself or you can use the
251 * helper functions: libusb_fill_control_transfer(), libusb_fill_bulk_transfer()
252 * and libusb_fill_interrupt_transfer().
253 *
254 * \subsection asyncsubmit Submission
255 *
256 * When you have allocated a transfer and filled it, you can submit it using
257 * libusb_submit_transfer(). This function returns immediately but can be
258 * regarded as firing off the I/O request in the background.
259 *
260 * \subsection asynccomplete Completion handling
261 *
262 * After a transfer has been submitted, one of four things can happen to it:
263 *
264 * - The transfer completes (i.e. some data was transferred)
265 * - The transfer has a timeout and the timeout expires before all data is
266 * transferred
267 * - The transfer fails due to an error
268 * - The transfer is cancelled
269 *
270 * Each of these will cause the user-specified transfer callback function to
271 * be invoked. It is up to the callback function to determine which of the
272 * above actually happened and to act accordingly.
273 *
274 * The user-specified callback is passed a pointer to the libusb_transfer
275 * structure which was used to setup and submit the transfer. At completion
276 * time, libusb has populated this structure with results of the transfer:
277 * success or failure reason, number of bytes of data transferred, etc. See
278 * the libusb_transfer structure documentation for more information.
279 *
280 * <b>Important Note</b>: The user-specified callback is called from an event
281 * handling context. It is therefore important that no calls are made into
282 * libusb that will attempt to perform any event handling. Examples of such
283 * functions are any listed in the \ref libusb_syncio "synchronous API" and any of
284 * the blocking functions that retrieve \ref libusb_desc "USB descriptors".
285 *
286 * \subsection Deallocation
287 *
288 * When a transfer has completed (i.e. the callback function has been invoked),
289 * you are advised to free the transfer (unless you wish to resubmit it, see
290 * below). Transfers are deallocated with libusb_free_transfer().
291 *
292 * It is undefined behaviour to free a transfer which has not completed.
293 *
294 * \section asyncresubmit Resubmission
295 *
296 * You may be wondering why allocation, filling, and submission are all
297 * separated above where they could reasonably be combined into a single
298 * operation.
299 *
300 * The reason for separation is to allow you to resubmit transfers without
301 * having to allocate new ones every time. This is especially useful for
302 * common situations dealing with interrupt endpoints - you allocate one
303 * transfer, fill and submit it, and when it returns with results you just
304 * resubmit it for the next interrupt.
305 *
306 * \section asynccancel Cancellation
307 *
308 * Another advantage of using the asynchronous interface is that you have
309 * the ability to cancel transfers which have not yet completed. This is
310 * done by calling the libusb_cancel_transfer() function.
311 *
312 * libusb_cancel_transfer() is asynchronous/non-blocking in itself. When the
313 * cancellation actually completes, the transfer's callback function will
314 * be invoked, and the callback function should check the transfer status to
315 * determine that it was cancelled.
316 *
317 * Freeing the transfer after it has been cancelled but before cancellation
318 * has completed will result in undefined behaviour.
319 *
320 * \attention
321 * When a transfer is cancelled, some of the data may have been transferred.
322 * libusb will communicate this to you in the transfer callback.
323 * <b>Do not assume that no data was transferred.</b>
324 *
325 * \section asyncpartial Partial data transfer resulting from cancellation
326 *
327 * As noted above, some of the data may have been transferred at the time a
328 * transfer is cancelled. It is helpful to see how this is possible if you
329 * consider a bulk transfer to an endpoint with a packet size of 64 bytes.
330 * Supposing you submit a 512-byte transfer to this endpoint, the operating
331 * system will divide this transfer up into 8 separate 64-byte frames that the
332 * host controller will schedule for the device to transfer data. If this
333 * transfer is cancelled while the device is transferring data, a subset of
334 * these frames may be descheduled from the host controller before the device
335 * has the opportunity to finish transferring data to the host.
336 *
337 * What your application should do with a partial data transfer is a policy
338 * decision; there is no single answer that satisfies the needs of every
339 * application. The data that was successfully transferred should be
340 * considered entirely valid, but your application must decide what to do with
341 * the remaining data that was not transferred. Some possible actions to take
342 * are:
343 * - Resubmit another transfer for the remaining data, possibly with a shorter
344 * timeout
345 * - Discard the partially transferred data and report an error
346 *
347 * \section asynctimeout Timeouts
348 *
349 * When a transfer times out, libusb internally notes this and attempts to
350 * cancel the transfer. As noted in \ref asyncpartial "above", it is possible
351 * that some of the data may actually have been transferred. Your application
352 * should <b>always</b> check how much data was actually transferred once the
353 * transfer completes and act accordingly.
354 *
355 * \section bulk_overflows Overflows on device-to-host bulk/interrupt endpoints
356 *
357 * If your device does not have predictable transfer sizes (or it misbehaves),
358 * your application may submit a request for data on an IN endpoint which is
359 * smaller than the data that the device wishes to send. In some circumstances
360 * this will cause an overflow, which is a nasty condition to deal with. See
361 * the \ref libusb_packetoverflow page for discussion.
362 *
363 * \section asyncctrl Considerations for control transfers
364 *
365 * The <tt>libusb_transfer</tt> structure is generic and hence does not
366 * include specific fields for the control-specific setup packet structure.
367 *
368 * In order to perform a control transfer, you must place the 8-byte setup
369 * packet at the start of the data buffer. To simplify this, you could
370 * cast the buffer pointer to type struct libusb_control_setup, or you can
371 * use the helper function libusb_fill_control_setup().
372 *
373 * The wLength field placed in the setup packet must be the length you would
374 * expect to be sent in the setup packet: the length of the payload that
375 * follows (or the expected maximum number of bytes to receive). However,
376 * the length field of the libusb_transfer object must be the length of
377 * the data buffer - i.e. it should be wLength <em>plus</em> the size of
378 * the setup packet (LIBUSB_CONTROL_SETUP_SIZE).
379 *
380 * If you use the helper functions, this is simplified for you:
381 * -# Allocate a buffer of size LIBUSB_CONTROL_SETUP_SIZE plus the size of the
382 * data you are sending/requesting.
383 * -# Call libusb_fill_control_setup() on the data buffer, using the transfer
384 * request size as the wLength value (i.e. do not include the extra space you
385 * allocated for the control setup).
386 * -# If this is a host-to-device transfer, place the data to be transferred
387 * in the data buffer, starting at offset LIBUSB_CONTROL_SETUP_SIZE.
388 * -# Call libusb_fill_control_transfer() to associate the data buffer with
389 * the transfer (and to set the remaining details such as callback and timeout).
390 * - Note that there is no parameter to set the length field of the transfer.
391 * The length is automatically inferred from the wLength field of the setup
392 * packet.
393 * -# Submit the transfer.
394 *
395 * The multi-byte control setup fields (wValue, wIndex and wLength) must
396 * be given in little-endian byte order (the endianness of the USB bus).
397 * Endianness conversion is transparently handled by
398 * libusb_fill_control_setup() which is documented to accept host-endian
399 * values.
400 *
401 * Further considerations are needed when handling transfer completion in
402 * your callback function:
403 * - As you might expect, the setup packet will still be sitting at the start
404 * of the data buffer.
405 * - If this was a device-to-host transfer, the received data will be sitting
406 * at offset LIBUSB_CONTROL_SETUP_SIZE into the buffer.
407 * - The actual_length field of the transfer structure is relative to the
408 * wLength of the setup packet, rather than the size of the data buffer. So,
409 * if your wLength was 4, your transfer's <tt>length</tt> was 12, then you
410 * should expect an <tt>actual_length</tt> of 4 to indicate that the data was
411 * transferred in entirety.
412 *
413 * To simplify parsing of setup packets and obtaining the data from the
414 * correct offset, you may wish to use the libusb_control_transfer_get_data()
415 * and libusb_control_transfer_get_setup() functions within your transfer
416 * callback.
417 *
418 * Even though control endpoints do not halt, a completed control transfer
419 * may have a LIBUSB_TRANSFER_STALL status code. This indicates the control
420 * request was not supported.
421 *
422 * \section asyncintr Considerations for interrupt transfers
423 *
424 * All interrupt transfers are performed using the polling interval presented
425 * by the bInterval value of the endpoint descriptor.
426 *
427 * \section asynciso Considerations for isochronous transfers
428 *
429 * Isochronous transfers are more complicated than transfers to
430 * non-isochronous endpoints.
431 *
432 * To perform I/O to an isochronous endpoint, allocate the transfer by calling
433 * libusb_alloc_transfer() with an appropriate number of isochronous packets.
434 *
435 * During filling, set \ref libusb_transfer::type "type" to
436 * \ref libusb_transfer_type::LIBUSB_TRANSFER_TYPE_ISOCHRONOUS
437 * "LIBUSB_TRANSFER_TYPE_ISOCHRONOUS", and set
438 * \ref libusb_transfer::num_iso_packets "num_iso_packets" to a value less than
439 * or equal to the number of packets you requested during allocation.
440 * libusb_alloc_transfer() does not set either of these fields for you, given
441 * that you might not even use the transfer on an isochronous endpoint.
442 *
443 * Next, populate the length field for the first num_iso_packets entries in
444 * the \ref libusb_transfer::iso_packet_desc "iso_packet_desc" array. Section
445 * 5.6.3 of the USB2 specifications describe how the maximum isochronous
446 * packet length is determined by the wMaxPacketSize field in the endpoint
447 * descriptor.
448 * Two functions can help you here:
449 *
450 * - libusb_get_max_iso_packet_size() is an easy way to determine the max
451 * packet size for an isochronous endpoint. Note that the maximum packet
452 * size is actually the maximum number of bytes that can be transmitted in
453 * a single microframe, therefore this function multiplies the maximum number
454 * of bytes per transaction by the number of transaction opportunities per
455 * microframe.
456 * - libusb_set_iso_packet_lengths() assigns the same length to all packets
457 * within a transfer, which is usually what you want.
458 *
459 * For outgoing transfers, you'll obviously fill the buffer and populate the
460 * packet descriptors in hope that all the data gets transferred. For incoming
461 * transfers, you must ensure the buffer has sufficient capacity for
462 * the situation where all packets transfer the full amount of requested data.
463 *
464 * Completion handling requires some extra consideration. The
465 * \ref libusb_transfer::actual_length "actual_length" field of the transfer
466 * is meaningless and should not be examined; instead you must refer to the
467 * \ref libusb_iso_packet_descriptor::actual_length "actual_length" field of
468 * each individual packet.
469 *
470 * The \ref libusb_transfer::status "status" field of the transfer is also a
471 * little misleading:
472 * - If the packets were submitted and the isochronous data microframes
473 * completed normally, status will have value
474 * \ref libusb_transfer_status::LIBUSB_TRANSFER_COMPLETED
475 * "LIBUSB_TRANSFER_COMPLETED". Note that bus errors and software-incurred
476 * delays are not counted as transfer errors; the transfer.status field may
477 * indicate COMPLETED even if some or all of the packets failed. Refer to
478 * the \ref libusb_iso_packet_descriptor::status "status" field of each
479 * individual packet to determine packet failures.
480 * - The status field will have value
481 * \ref libusb_transfer_status::LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR
482 * "LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR" only when serious errors were encountered.
483 * - Other transfer status codes occur with normal behaviour.
484 *
485 * The data for each packet will be found at an offset into the buffer that
486 * can be calculated as if each prior packet completed in full. The
487 * libusb_get_iso_packet_buffer() and libusb_get_iso_packet_buffer_simple()
488 * functions may help you here.
489 *
490 * \section asynclimits Transfer length limitations
491 *
492 * Some operating systems may impose limits on the length of the transfer data
493 * buffer or, in the case of isochronous transfers, the length of individual
494 * isochronous packets. Such limits can be difficult for libusb to detect, so
495 * in most cases the library will simply try and submit the transfer as set up
496 * by you. If the transfer fails to submit because it is too large,
497 * libusb_submit_transfer() will return
498 * \ref libusb_error::LIBUSB_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM "LIBUSB_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM".
499 *
500 * The following are known limits for control transfer lengths. Note that this
501 * length includes the 8-byte setup packet.
502 * - Linux (4,096 bytes)
503 * - Windows (4,096 bytes)
504 *
505 * \section asyncmem Memory caveats
506 *
507 * In most circumstances, it is not safe to use stack memory for transfer
508 * buffers. This is because the function that fired off the asynchronous
509 * transfer may return before libusb has finished using the buffer, and when
510 * the function returns it's stack gets destroyed. This is true for both
511 * host-to-device and device-to-host transfers.
512 *
513 * The only case in which it is safe to use stack memory is where you can
514 * guarantee that the function owning the stack space for the buffer does not
515 * return until after the transfer's callback function has completed. In every
516 * other case, you need to use heap memory instead.
517 *
518 * \section asyncflags Fine control
519 *
520 * Through using this asynchronous interface, you may find yourself repeating
521 * a few simple operations many times. You can apply a bitwise OR of certain
522 * flags to a transfer to simplify certain things:
523 * - \ref libusb_transfer_flags::LIBUSB_TRANSFER_SHORT_NOT_OK
524 * "LIBUSB_TRANSFER_SHORT_NOT_OK" results in transfers which transferred
525 * less than the requested amount of data being marked with status
526 * \ref libusb_transfer_status::LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR "LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR"
527 * (they would normally be regarded as COMPLETED)
528 * - \ref libusb_transfer_flags::LIBUSB_TRANSFER_FREE_BUFFER
529 * "LIBUSB_TRANSFER_FREE_BUFFER" allows you to ask libusb to free the transfer
530 * buffer when freeing the transfer.
531 * - \ref libusb_transfer_flags::LIBUSB_TRANSFER_FREE_TRANSFER
532 * "LIBUSB_TRANSFER_FREE_TRANSFER" causes libusb to automatically free the
533 * transfer after the transfer callback returns.
534 *
535 * \section asyncevent Event handling
536 *
537 * An asynchronous model requires that libusb perform work at various
538 * points in time - namely processing the results of previously-submitted
539 * transfers and invoking the user-supplied callback function.
540 *
541 * This gives rise to the libusb_handle_events() function which your
542 * application must call into when libusb has work do to. This gives libusb
543 * the opportunity to reap pending transfers, invoke callbacks, etc.
544 *
545 * \note
546 * All event handling is performed by whichever thread calls the
547 * libusb_handle_events() function. libusb does not invoke any callbacks
548 * outside of this context. Consequently, any callbacks will be run on the
549 * thread that calls the libusb_handle_events() function.
550 *
551 * When to call the libusb_handle_events() function depends on which model
552 * your application decides to use. The 2 different approaches:
553 *
554 * -# Repeatedly call libusb_handle_events() in blocking mode from a dedicated
555 * thread.
556 * -# Integrate libusb with your application's main event loop. libusb
557 * exposes a set of file descriptors which allow you to do this.
558 *
559 * The first approach has the big advantage that it will also work on Windows
560 * were libusb' poll API for select / poll integration is not available. So
561 * if you want to support Windows and use the async API, you must use this
562 * approach, see the \ref eventthread "Using an event handling thread" section
563 * below for details.
564 *
565 * If you prefer a single threaded approach with a single central event loop,
566 * see the \ref libusb_poll "polling and timing" section for how to integrate libusb
567 * into your application's main event loop.
568 *
569 * \section eventthread Using an event handling thread
570 *
571 * Lets begin with stating the obvious: If you're going to use a separate
572 * thread for libusb event handling, your callback functions MUST be
573 * thread-safe.
574 *
575 * Other then that doing event handling from a separate thread, is mostly
576 * simple. You can use an event thread function as follows:
577 \code
578 void *event_thread_func(void *ctx)
579 {
580 while (event_thread_run)
581 libusb_handle_events(ctx);
582
583 return NULL;
584 }
585 \endcode
586 *
587 * There is one caveat though, stopping this thread requires setting the
588 * event_thread_run variable to 0, and after that libusb_handle_events() needs
589 * to return control to event_thread_func. But unless some event happens,
590 * libusb_handle_events() will not return.
591 *
592 * There are 2 different ways of dealing with this, depending on if your
593 * application uses libusb' \ref libusb_hotplug "hotplug" support or not.
594 *
595 * Applications which do not use hotplug support, should not start the event
596 * thread until after their first call to libusb_open(), and should stop the
597 * thread when closing the last open device as follows:
598 \code
599 void my_close_handle(libusb_device_handle *dev_handle)
600 {
601 if (open_devs == 1)
602 event_thread_run = 0;
603
604 libusb_close(dev_handle); // This wakes up libusb_handle_events()
605
606 if (open_devs == 1)
607 pthread_join(event_thread);
608
609 open_devs--;
610 }
611 \endcode
612 *
613 * Applications using hotplug support should start the thread at program init,
614 * after having successfully called libusb_hotplug_register_callback(), and
615 * should stop the thread at program exit as follows:
616 \code
617 void my_libusb_exit(void)
618 {
619 event_thread_run = 0;
620 libusb_hotplug_deregister_callback(ctx, hotplug_cb_handle); // This wakes up libusb_handle_events()
621 pthread_join(event_thread);
622 libusb_exit(ctx);
623 }
624 \endcode
625 */
626
627 /**
628 * @defgroup libusb_poll Polling and timing
629 *
630 * This page documents libusb's functions for polling events and timing.
631 * These functions are only necessary for users of the
632 * \ref libusb_asyncio "asynchronous API". If you are only using the simpler
633 * \ref libusb_syncio "synchronous API" then you do not need to ever call these
634 * functions.
635 *
636 * The justification for the functionality described here has already been
637 * discussed in the \ref asyncevent "event handling" section of the
638 * asynchronous API documentation. In summary, libusb does not create internal
639 * threads for event processing and hence relies on your application calling
640 * into libusb at certain points in time so that pending events can be handled.
641 *
642 * Your main loop is probably already calling poll() or select() or a
643 * variant on a set of file descriptors for other event sources (e.g. keyboard
644 * button presses, mouse movements, network sockets, etc). You then add
645 * libusb's file descriptors to your poll()/select() calls, and when activity
646 * is detected on such descriptors you know it is time to call
647 * libusb_handle_events().
648 *
649 * There is one final event handling complication. libusb supports
650 * asynchronous transfers which time out after a specified time period.
651 *
652 * On some platforms a timerfd is used, so the timeout handling is just another
653 * fd, on other platforms this requires that libusb is called into at or after
654 * the timeout to handle it. So, in addition to considering libusb's file
655 * descriptors in your main event loop, you must also consider that libusb
656 * sometimes needs to be called into at fixed points in time even when there
657 * is no file descriptor activity, see \ref polltime details.
658 *
659 * In order to know precisely when libusb needs to be called into, libusb
660 * offers you a set of pollable file descriptors and information about when
661 * the next timeout expires.
662 *
663 * If you are using the asynchronous I/O API, you must take one of the two
664 * following options, otherwise your I/O will not complete.
665 *
666 * \section pollsimple The simple option
667 *
668 * If your application revolves solely around libusb and does not need to
669 * handle other event sources, you can have a program structure as follows:
670 \code
671 // initialize libusb
672 // find and open device
673 // maybe fire off some initial async I/O
674
675 while (user_has_not_requested_exit)
676 libusb_handle_events(ctx);
677
678 // clean up and exit
679 \endcode
680 *
681 * With such a simple main loop, you do not have to worry about managing
682 * sets of file descriptors or handling timeouts. libusb_handle_events() will
683 * handle those details internally.
684 *
685 * \section libusb_pollmain The more advanced option
686 *
687 * \note This functionality is currently only available on Unix-like platforms.
688 * On Windows, libusb_get_pollfds() simply returns NULL. Applications which
689 * want to support Windows are advised to use an \ref eventthread
690 * "event handling thread" instead.
691 *
692 * In more advanced applications, you will already have a main loop which
693 * is monitoring other event sources: network sockets, X11 events, mouse
694 * movements, etc. Through exposing a set of file descriptors, libusb is
695 * designed to cleanly integrate into such main loops.
696 *
697 * In addition to polling file descriptors for the other event sources, you
698 * take a set of file descriptors from libusb and monitor those too. When you
699 * detect activity on libusb's file descriptors, you call
700 * libusb_handle_events_timeout() in non-blocking mode.
701 *
702 * What's more, libusb may also need to handle events at specific moments in
703 * time. No file descriptor activity is generated at these times, so your
704 * own application needs to be continually aware of when the next one of these
705 * moments occurs (through calling libusb_get_next_timeout()), and then it
706 * needs to call libusb_handle_events_timeout() in non-blocking mode when
707 * these moments occur. This means that you need to adjust your
708 * poll()/select() timeout accordingly.
709 *
710 * libusb provides you with a set of file descriptors to poll and expects you
711 * to poll all of them, treating them as a single entity. The meaning of each
712 * file descriptor in the set is an internal implementation detail,
713 * platform-dependent and may vary from release to release. Don't try and
714 * interpret the meaning of the file descriptors, just do as libusb indicates,
715 * polling all of them at once.
716 *
717 * In pseudo-code, you want something that looks like:
718 \code
719 // initialise libusb
720
721 libusb_get_pollfds(ctx)
722 while (user has not requested application exit) {
723 libusb_get_next_timeout(ctx);
724 poll(on libusb file descriptors plus any other event sources of interest,
725 using a timeout no larger than the value libusb just suggested)
726 if (poll() indicated activity on libusb file descriptors)
727 libusb_handle_events_timeout(ctx, &zero_tv);
728 if (time has elapsed to or beyond the libusb timeout)
729 libusb_handle_events_timeout(ctx, &zero_tv);
730 // handle events from other sources here
731 }
732
733 // clean up and exit
734 \endcode
735 *
736 * \subsection polltime Notes on time-based events
737 *
738 * The above complication with having to track time and call into libusb at
739 * specific moments is a bit of a headache. For maximum compatibility, you do
740 * need to write your main loop as above, but you may decide that you can
741 * restrict the supported platforms of your application and get away with
742 * a more simplistic scheme.
743 *
744 * These time-based event complications are \b not required on the following
745 * platforms:
746 * - Darwin
747 * - Linux, provided that the following version requirements are satisfied:
748 * - Linux v2.6.27 or newer, compiled with timerfd support
749 * - glibc v2.9 or newer
750 * - libusb v1.0.5 or newer
751 *
752 * Under these configurations, libusb_get_next_timeout() will \em always return
753 * 0, so your main loop can be simplified to:
754 \code
755 // initialise libusb
756
757 libusb_get_pollfds(ctx)
758 while (user has not requested application exit) {
759 poll(on libusb file descriptors plus any other event sources of interest,
760 using any timeout that you like)
761 if (poll() indicated activity on libusb file descriptors)
762 libusb_handle_events_timeout(ctx, &zero_tv);
763 // handle events from other sources here
764 }
765
766 // clean up and exit
767 \endcode
768 *
769 * Do remember that if you simplify your main loop to the above, you will
770 * lose compatibility with some platforms (including legacy Linux platforms,
771 * and <em>any future platforms supported by libusb which may have time-based
772 * event requirements</em>). The resultant problems will likely appear as
773 * strange bugs in your application.
774 *
775 * You can use the libusb_pollfds_handle_timeouts() function to do a runtime
776 * check to see if it is safe to ignore the time-based event complications.
777 * If your application has taken the shortcut of ignoring libusb's next timeout
778 * in your main loop, then you are advised to check the return value of
779 * libusb_pollfds_handle_timeouts() during application startup, and to abort
780 * if the platform does suffer from these timing complications.
781 *
782 * \subsection fdsetchange Changes in the file descriptor set
783 *
784 * The set of file descriptors that libusb uses as event sources may change
785 * during the life of your application. Rather than having to repeatedly
786 * call libusb_get_pollfds(), you can set up notification functions for when
787 * the file descriptor set changes using libusb_set_pollfd_notifiers().
788 *
789 * \subsection mtissues Multi-threaded considerations
790 *
791 * Unfortunately, the situation is complicated further when multiple threads
792 * come into play. If two threads are monitoring the same file descriptors,
793 * the fact that only one thread will be woken up when an event occurs causes
794 * some headaches.
795 *
796 * The events lock, event waiters lock, and libusb_handle_events_locked()
797 * entities are added to solve these problems. You do not need to be concerned
798 * with these entities otherwise.
799 *
800 * See the extra documentation: \ref libusb_mtasync
801 */
802
803 /** \page libusb_mtasync Multi-threaded applications and asynchronous I/O
804 *
805 * libusb is a thread-safe library, but extra considerations must be applied
806 * to applications which interact with libusb from multiple threads.
807 *
808 * The underlying issue that must be addressed is that all libusb I/O
809 * revolves around monitoring file descriptors through the poll()/select()
810 * system calls. This is directly exposed at the
811 * \ref libusb_asyncio "asynchronous interface" but it is important to note that the
812 * \ref libusb_syncio "synchronous interface" is implemented on top of the
813 * asynchronous interface, therefore the same considerations apply.
814 *
815 * The issue is that if two or more threads are concurrently calling poll()
816 * or select() on libusb's file descriptors then only one of those threads
817 * will be woken up when an event arrives. The others will be completely
818 * oblivious that anything has happened.
819 *
820 * Consider the following pseudo-code, which submits an asynchronous transfer
821 * then waits for its completion. This style is one way you could implement a
822 * synchronous interface on top of the asynchronous interface (and libusb
823 * does something similar, albeit more advanced due to the complications
824 * explained on this page).
825 *
826 \code
827 void cb(struct libusb_transfer *transfer)
828 {
829 int *completed = transfer->user_data;
830 *completed = 1;
831 }
832
833 void myfunc() {
834 struct libusb_transfer *transfer;
835 unsigned char buffer[LIBUSB_CONTROL_SETUP_SIZE] __attribute__ ((aligned (2)));
836 int completed = 0;
837
838 transfer = libusb_alloc_transfer(0);
839 libusb_fill_control_setup(buffer,
840 LIBUSB_REQUEST_TYPE_VENDOR | LIBUSB_ENDPOINT_OUT, 0x04, 0x01, 0, 0);
841 libusb_fill_control_transfer(transfer, dev, buffer, cb, &completed, 1000);
842 libusb_submit_transfer(transfer);
843
844 while (!completed) {
845 poll(libusb file descriptors, 120*1000);
846 if (poll indicates activity)
847 libusb_handle_events_timeout(ctx, &zero_tv);
848 }
849 printf("completed!");
850 // other code here
851 }
852 \endcode
853 *
854 * Here we are <em>serializing</em> completion of an asynchronous event
855 * against a condition - the condition being completion of a specific transfer.
856 * The poll() loop has a long timeout to minimize CPU usage during situations
857 * when nothing is happening (it could reasonably be unlimited).
858 *
859 * If this is the only thread that is polling libusb's file descriptors, there
860 * is no problem: there is no danger that another thread will swallow up the
861 * event that we are interested in. On the other hand, if there is another
862 * thread polling the same descriptors, there is a chance that it will receive
863 * the event that we were interested in. In this situation, <tt>myfunc()</tt>
864 * will only realise that the transfer has completed on the next iteration of
865 * the loop, <em>up to 120 seconds later.</em> Clearly a two-minute delay is
866 * undesirable, and don't even think about using short timeouts to circumvent
867 * this issue!
868 *
869 * The solution here is to ensure that no two threads are ever polling the
870 * file descriptors at the same time. A naive implementation of this would
871 * impact the capabilities of the library, so libusb offers the scheme
872 * documented below to ensure no loss of functionality.
873 *
874 * Before we go any further, it is worth mentioning that all libusb-wrapped
875 * event handling procedures fully adhere to the scheme documented below.
876 * This includes libusb_handle_events() and its variants, and all the
877 * synchronous I/O functions - libusb hides this headache from you.
878 *
879 * \section Using libusb_handle_events() from multiple threads
880 *
881 * Even when only using libusb_handle_events() and synchronous I/O functions,
882 * you can still have a race condition. You might be tempted to solve the
883 * above with libusb_handle_events() like so:
884 *
885 \code
886 libusb_submit_transfer(transfer);
887
888 while (!completed) {
889 libusb_handle_events(ctx);
890 }
891 printf("completed!");
892 \endcode
893 *
894 * This however has a race between the checking of completed and
895 * libusb_handle_events() acquiring the events lock, so another thread
896 * could have completed the transfer, resulting in this thread hanging
897 * until either a timeout or another event occurs. See also commit
898 * 6696512aade99bb15d6792af90ae329af270eba6 which fixes this in the
899 * synchronous API implementation of libusb.
900 *
901 * Fixing this race requires checking the variable completed only after
902 * taking the event lock, which defeats the concept of just calling
903 * libusb_handle_events() without worrying about locking. This is why
904 * libusb-1.0.9 introduces the new libusb_handle_events_timeout_completed()
905 * and libusb_handle_events_completed() functions, which handles doing the
906 * completion check for you after they have acquired the lock:
907 *
908 \code
909 libusb_submit_transfer(transfer);
910
911 while (!completed) {
912 libusb_handle_events_completed(ctx, &completed);
913 }
914 printf("completed!");
915 \endcode
916 *
917 * This nicely fixes the race in our example. Note that if all you want to
918 * do is submit a single transfer and wait for its completion, then using
919 * one of the synchronous I/O functions is much easier.
920 *
921 * \note
922 * The `completed` variable must be modified while holding the event lock,
923 * otherwise a race condition can still exist. It is simplest to do so from
924 * within the transfer callback as shown above.
925 *
926 * \section eventlock The events lock
927 *
928 * The problem is when we consider the fact that libusb exposes file
929 * descriptors to allow for you to integrate asynchronous USB I/O into
930 * existing main loops, effectively allowing you to do some work behind
931 * libusb's back. If you do take libusb's file descriptors and pass them to
932 * poll()/select() yourself, you need to be aware of the associated issues.
933 *
934 * The first concept to be introduced is the events lock. The events lock
935 * is used to serialize threads that want to handle events, such that only
936 * one thread is handling events at any one time.
937 *
938 * You must take the events lock before polling libusb file descriptors,
939 * using libusb_lock_events(). You must release the lock as soon as you have
940 * aborted your poll()/select() loop, using libusb_unlock_events().
941 *
942 * \section threadwait Letting other threads do the work for you
943 *
944 * Although the events lock is a critical part of the solution, it is not
945 * enough on it's own. You might wonder if the following is sufficient...
946 \code
947 libusb_lock_events(ctx);
948 while (!completed) {
949 poll(libusb file descriptors, 120*1000);
950 if (poll indicates activity)
951 libusb_handle_events_timeout(ctx, &zero_tv);
952 }
953 libusb_unlock_events(ctx);
954 \endcode
955 * ...and the answer is that it is not. This is because the transfer in the
956 * code shown above may take a long time (say 30 seconds) to complete, and
957 * the lock is not released until the transfer is completed.
958 *
959 * Another thread with similar code that wants to do event handling may be
960 * working with a transfer that completes after a few milliseconds. Despite
961 * having such a quick completion time, the other thread cannot check that
962 * status of its transfer until the code above has finished (30 seconds later)
963 * due to contention on the lock.
964 *
965 * To solve this, libusb offers you a mechanism to determine when another
966 * thread is handling events. It also offers a mechanism to block your thread
967 * until the event handling thread has completed an event (and this mechanism
968 * does not involve polling of file descriptors).
969 *
970 * After determining that another thread is currently handling events, you
971 * obtain the <em>event waiters</em> lock using libusb_lock_event_waiters().
972 * You then re-check that some other thread is still handling events, and if
973 * so, you call libusb_wait_for_event().
974 *
975 * libusb_wait_for_event() puts your application to sleep until an event
976 * occurs, or until a thread releases the events lock. When either of these
977 * things happen, your thread is woken up, and should re-check the condition
978 * it was waiting on. It should also re-check that another thread is handling
979 * events, and if not, it should start handling events itself.
980 *
981 * This looks like the following, as pseudo-code:
982 \code
983 retry:
984 if (libusb_try_lock_events(ctx) == 0) {
985 // we obtained the event lock: do our own event handling
986 while (!completed) {
987 if (!libusb_event_handling_ok(ctx)) {
988 libusb_unlock_events(ctx);
989 goto retry;
990 }
991 poll(libusb file descriptors, 120*1000);
992 if (poll indicates activity)

1017 *
1018 * A naive look at the above code may suggest that this can only support
1019 * one event waiter (hence a total of 2 competing threads, the other doing
1020 * event handling), because the event waiter seems to have taken the event
1021 * waiters lock while waiting for an event. However, the system does support
1022 * multiple event waiters, because libusb_wait_for_event() actually drops
1023 * the lock while waiting, and reacquires it before continuing.
1024 *
1025 * We have now implemented code which can dynamically handle situations where
1026 * nobody is handling events (so we should do it ourselves), and it can also
1027 * handle situations where another thread is doing event handling (so we can
1028 * piggyback onto them). It is also equipped to handle a combination of
1029 * the two, for example, another thread is doing event handling, but for
1030 * whatever reason it stops doing so before our condition is met, so we take
1031 * over the event handling.
1032 *
1033 * Four functions were introduced in the above pseudo-code. Their importance
1034 * should be apparent from the code shown above.
1035 * -# libusb_try_lock_events() is a non-blocking function which attempts
1036 * to acquire the events lock but returns a failure code if it is contended.
1037 * -# libusb_event_handling_ok() checks that libusb is still happy for your
1038 * thread to be performing event handling. Sometimes, libusb needs to
1039 * interrupt the event handler, and this is how you can check if you have
1040 * been interrupted. If this function returns 0, the correct behaviour is
1041 * for you to give up the event handling lock, and then to repeat the cycle.
1042 * The following libusb_try_lock_events() will fail, so you will become an
1043 * events waiter. For more information on this, read \ref fullstory below.
1044 * -# libusb_handle_events_locked() is a variant of
1045 * libusb_handle_events_timeout() that you can call while holding the
1046 * events lock. libusb_handle_events_timeout() itself implements similar
1047 * logic to the above, so be sure not to call it when you are
1048 * "working behind libusb's back", as is the case here.
1049 * -# libusb_event_handler_active() determines if someone is currently
1050 * holding the events lock
1051 *
1052 * You might be wondering why there is no function to wake up all threads
1053 * blocked on libusb_wait_for_event(). This is because libusb can do this
1054 * internally: it will wake up all such threads when someone calls
1055 * libusb_unlock_events() or when a transfer completes (at the point after its
1056 * callback has returned).
1057 *
1058 * \subsection fullstory The full story
1059 *
1060 * The above explanation should be enough to get you going, but if you're
1061 * really thinking through the issues then you may be left with some more
1062 * questions regarding libusb's internals. If you're curious, read on, and if
1063 * not, skip to the next section to avoid confusing yourself!
1064 *
1065 * The immediate question that may spring to mind is: what if one thread
1066 * modifies the set of file descriptors that need to be polled while another
1067 * thread is doing event handling?
1068 *
1069 * There are 2 situations in which this may happen.
1070 * -# libusb_open() will add another file descriptor to the poll set,
1071 * therefore it is desirable to interrupt the event handler so that it
1072 * restarts, picking up the new descriptor.
1073 * -# libusb_close() will remove a file descriptor from the poll set. There
1074 * are all kinds of race conditions that could arise here, so it is
1075 * important that nobody is doing event handling at this time.
1076 *
1077 * libusb handles these issues internally, so application developers do not
1078 * have to stop their event handlers while opening/closing devices. Here's how
1079 * it works, focusing on the libusb_close() situation first:
1080 *
1081 * -# During initialization, libusb opens an internal pipe, and it adds the read
1082 * end of this pipe to the set of file descriptors to be polled.
1083 * -# During libusb_close(), libusb writes some dummy data on this event pipe.
1084 * This immediately interrupts the event handler. libusb also records
1085 * internally that it is trying to interrupt event handlers for this
1086 * high-priority event.
1087 * -# At this point, some of the functions described above start behaving
1088 * differently:
1089 * - libusb_event_handling_ok() starts returning 1, indicating that it is NOT
1090 * OK for event handling to continue.
1091 * - libusb_try_lock_events() starts returning 1, indicating that another
1092 * thread holds the event handling lock, even if the lock is uncontended.
1093 * - libusb_event_handler_active() starts returning 1, indicating that
1094 * another thread is doing event handling, even if that is not true.
1095 * -# The above changes in behaviour result in the event handler stopping and
1096 * giving up the events lock very quickly, giving the high-priority
1097 * libusb_close() operation a "free ride" to acquire the events lock. All
1098 * threads that are competing to do event handling become event waiters.
1099 * -# With the events lock held inside libusb_close(), libusb can safely remove
1100 * a file descriptor from the poll set, in the safety of knowledge that
1101 * nobody is polling those descriptors or trying to access the poll set.
1102 * -# After obtaining the events lock, the close operation completes very
1103 * quickly (usually a matter of milliseconds) and then immediately releases
1104 * the events lock.
1105 * -# At the same time, the behaviour of libusb_event_handling_ok() and friends
1106 * reverts to the original, documented behaviour.
1107 * -# The release of the events lock causes the threads that are waiting for
1108 * events to be woken up and to start competing to become event handlers
1109 * again. One of them will succeed; it will then re-obtain the list of poll
1110 * descriptors, and USB I/O will then continue as normal.
1111 *
1112 * libusb_open() is similar, and is actually a more simplistic case. Upon a
1113 * call to libusb_open():
1114 *
1115 * -# The device is opened and a file descriptor is added to the poll set.
1116 * -# libusb sends some dummy data on the event pipe, and records that it
1117 * is trying to modify the poll descriptor set.
1118 * -# The event handler is interrupted, and the same behaviour change as for
1119 * libusb_close() takes effect, causing all event handling threads to become
1120 * event waiters.
1121 * -# The libusb_open() implementation takes its free ride to the events lock.
1122 * -# Happy that it has successfully paused the events handler, libusb_open()
1123 * releases the events lock.
1124 * -# The event waiter threads are all woken up and compete to become event
1125 * handlers again. The one that succeeds will obtain the list of poll
1126 * descriptors again, which will include the addition of the new device.
1127 *
1128 * \subsection concl Closing remarks
1129 *
1130 * The above may seem a little complicated, but hopefully I have made it clear
1131 * why such complications are necessary. Also, do not forget that this only
1132 * applies to applications that take libusb's file descriptors and integrate
1133 * them into their own polling loops.
1134 *
1135 * You may decide that it is OK for your multi-threaded application to ignore
1136 * some of the rules and locks detailed above, because you don't think that
1137 * two threads can ever be polling the descriptors at the same time. If that
1138 * is the case, then that's good news for you because you don't have to worry.
1139 * But be careful here; remember that the synchronous I/O functions do event
1140 * handling internally. If you have one thread doing event handling in a loop
1141 * (without implementing the rules and locking semantics documented above)
1142 * and another trying to send a synchronous USB transfer, you will end up with
1143 * two threads monitoring the same descriptors, and the above-described
1144 * undesirable behaviour occurring. The solution is for your polling thread to
1145 * play by the rules; the synchronous I/O functions do so, and this will result
1146 * in them getting along in perfect harmony.
1147 *
1148 * If you do have a dedicated thread doing event handling, it is perfectly
1149 * legal for it to take the event handling lock for long periods of time. Any
1150 * synchronous I/O functions you call from other threads will transparently
1151 * fall back to the "event waiters" mechanism detailed above. The only
1152 * consideration that your event handling thread must apply is the one related
1153 * to libusb_event_handling_ok(): you must call this before every poll(), and
1154 * give up the events lock if instructed.

2484 *
2485 * This function is only useful for applications which retrieve and poll
2486 * libusb's file descriptors in their own main loop (\ref libusb_pollmain).
2487 *
2488 * Ordinarily, libusb's event handler needs to be called into at specific
2489 * moments in time (in addition to times when there is activity on the file
2490 * descriptor set). The usual approach is to use libusb_get_next_timeout()
2491 * to learn about when the next timeout occurs, and to adjust your
2492 * poll()/select() timeout accordingly so that you can make a call into the
2493 * library at that time.
2494 *
2495 * Some platforms supported by libusb do not come with this baggage - any
2496 * events relevant to timing will be represented by activity on the file
2497 * descriptor set, and libusb_get_next_timeout() will always return 0.
2498 * This function allows you to detect whether you are running on such a
2499 * platform.
2500 *
2501 * Since v1.0.5.
2502 *
2503 * \param ctx the context to operate on, or NULL for the default context
2504 * \returns 0 if you must call into libusb at times determined by
2505 * libusb_get_next_timeout(), or 1 if all timeout events are handled internally
2506 * or through regular activity on the file descriptors.
