When setting up ISO and INT transfers dwc2 needs to specify whether the transfer is for an even or an odd frame (or microframe if the controller is running in high speed mode). The controller appears to use this as a simple way to figure out if a transfer should happen right away (in the current microframe) or should happen at the start of the next microframe. Said another way: - If you set "odd" and the current frame number is odd it appears that the controller will try to transfer right away. Same thing if you set "even" and the current frame number is even. - If the oddness you set and the oddness of the frame number are _different_, the transfer will be delayed until the frame number changes. As I understand it, the above technique allows you to plan ahead of time where possible by always working on the next frame. ...but it still allows you to properly respond immediately to things that happened in the previous frame. The old dwc2_hc_set_even_odd_frame() didn't really handle this concept. It always looked at the frame number and setup the transfer to happen in the next frame. In some cases that meant that certain transactions would be transferred in the wrong frame. We'll try our best to set the even / odd to do the transfer in the scheduled frame. If that fails then we'll do an ugly "schedule ASAP". We'll also modify the scheduler code to handle this and not try to schedule a second transfer for the same frame. Note that this change relies on the work to redo the microframe scheduler. It can work atop ("usb: dwc2: host: Manage frame nums better in scheduler") but it works even better after ("usb: dwc2: host: Totally redo the microframe scheduler"). With this change my stressful USB test (USB webcam + USB audio + keyboards) has less audio crackling than before.

To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources: * This source code. This is necessarily an evolving work, and includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview. ("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and "gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has more information. * The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes. The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9". * Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters. * Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team. Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in them. core/ - This is for the core USB host code, including the usbfs files and the hub class driver ("hub_wq"). host/ - This is for USB host controller drivers. This includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might be used with more specialized "embedded" systems. gadget/ - This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and the various gadget drivers which talk to them. Individual USB driver directories. A new driver should be added to the first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into. image/ - This is for still image drivers, like scanners or digital cameras. ../input/ - This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem, like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc. ../media/ - This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras, radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l subsystem. ../net/ - This is for network drivers. serial/ - This is for USB to serial drivers. storage/ - This is for USB mass-storage drivers. class/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit into any of the above categories, and work for a range of USB Class specified devices. misc/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit into any of the above categories.
