USB: descriptor handling
Hi, I found a bug when working with the u-boot USB subsystem on IXP425 processor (big endian Xscale aka ARMv5). I recognized that the second usb_endpoint_descriptor of the attached memory stick was corrupted. The reason for this are the packed structures below (either u-boot and u-boot-usb): -------------- /* Endpoint descriptor */ struct usb_endpoint_descriptor { unsigned char bLength; unsigned char bDescriptorType; unsigned char bEndpointAddress; unsigned char bmAttributes; unsigned short wMaxPacketSize; unsigned char bInterval; unsigned char bRefresh; unsigned char bSynchAddress; } __attribute__ ((packed)); /* Interface descriptor */ struct usb_interface_descriptor { unsigned char bLength; unsigned char bDescriptorType; unsigned char bInterfaceNumber; unsigned char bAlternateSetting; unsigned char bNumEndpoints; unsigned char bInterfaceClass; unsigned char bInterfaceSubClass; unsigned char bInterfaceProtocol; unsigned char iInterface; unsigned char no_of_ep; unsigned char num_altsetting; unsigned char act_altsetting; struct usb_endpoint_descriptor ep_desc[USB_MAXENDPOINTS]; } __attribute__ ((packed)); ------------ As usb_endpoint_descriptor is only 7byte in length, the start of all odd ep_desc[] structures is not word aligned. This makes wMaxPacketSize of these structures also not word aligned. ARMv5 Architecture however does not support non-aligned multibyte data type (see A2.8 of ARM Architecture Reference Manual).
