    Input: usbtouchscreen - separate report and transmit buffer size handling · 4ef38351
    Christian Engelmayer authored
    This patch supports the separate handling of the USB transfer buffer length
    and the length of the buffer used for multi packet support. For devices
    supporting multiple report or diagnostic packets, the USB transfer size is now
    limited to the USB endpoints wMaxPacketSize - otherwise it defaults to the
    configured report packet size as before.
    
    This fixes an issue where event reporting can be delayed for an arbitrary
    time for multi packet devices. For instance the report size for eGalax devices
    is defined to the 16 byte maximum diagnostic packet size as opposed to the 5
    byte report packet size. In case the driver requests 16 byte from the USB
    interrupt endpoint, the USB host controller driver needs to split up the
    request into 2 accesses according to the endpoints wMaxPacketSize of 8 byte.
    When the first transfer is answered by the eGalax device with not less than
    the full 8 byte requested, the host controller has got no way of knowing
    whether the touch controller has got additional data queued and will issue
    the second transfer. If per example a liftoff event finishes at such a
    wMaxPacketSize boundary, the data will not be available to the usbtouch driver
    until a further event is triggered and transfered to the host. From user
    perspective the BTN_TOUCH release event in this case is stuck until the next
    touch down event.
