50
slave device, the UDC (USB Device Controller). This supports seven
51
endpoints. Endpoint 0 can only be used for control messages. Endpoints
52
1 and 2 are for isochronous transmits and receives respectively.
53
Endpoints 3 and 4 support bulk transmits and receives. Endpoints 5 and
54
6 normally support interrupt transmits and receives,but endpoint 5 can
55
also be configured to support bulk transmits. At this time only the

control endpoint 0, the bulk endpoints 3 and 4, and the interrupt
57
endpoint 5 are supported.</P

be necessary to override this in special circumstances, for example if
130
the target board uses an external USB chip in preference to the UDC
131
and it is that external chip's device driver that should be used
132
rather than the on-chip UDC. It is not possible to disable endpoint 0
133

support bulk transfers. Endpoint 3 can be enabled if the application

a control packet size of eight bytes, and again this should be

limited to 64 bytes by the USB standard.</P

variable-length transfers, in other words if the host is allowed to
292
send less data than a maximum-sized transfer, then the buffer passed
293
to the device driver for receives must be aligned to a 16-byte
294
cacheline boundary and it must be a multiple of this 16-byte cacheline

size. This restriction does not apply if the protocol only involves

system being developed.</P

>Erratum S1 lists a possible problem if the device driver attempts
313
multiple writes to the USB hardware. This is circumvented by a

320
><P
321
>Errata U3 and U4 describe various problems related to concurrent
322
transmissions on different endpoints. By default the device driver
323
works around this by serializing all transmit operations. For example
324
if the device driver needs to send a response to a control message on
325
endpoint 0 while there is an ongoing bulk transfer on endpoint 5, the
326
response is delayed until the bulk transfer has completed. Under
327
typical operating conditions this does not cause any problems:
328
endpoint 0 traffic usually happens only during initialization, when
329
the target is connected to the host, while endpoint 5 traffic only
330
happens after initialization. However if transmit serialization is
331
inappropriate for the system being developed then it can be disabled
332
using the configuration option

to perform some additional operations during start-up. For example it
348
may be necessary to manipulate one of the processor's GPIO lines
349
before the host can detect a new USB peripheral and attempt to
350
communicate with it. This avoids problems if the target involves a
351
significant amount of work prior to device driver initialization, for
352
example a power-on self-test sequence. If the USB host attempted to
353
contact the target before the USB device driver had been initialized,
354
it would fail to get the expected responses and conclude that the

target was not a functional USB peripheral.</P
