USB_ADD_TASK(9) FreeBSD Kernel Developer's Manual USB_ADD_TASK(9) NAME usb_add_task, usb_rem_task, usb_wait_task, usb_rem_wait_task, usb_init_task - USB task queues SYNOPSIS #include <dev/usb/usbdi.h> void usb_add_task(struct usbd_device *dev, struct usb_task *task); void usb_rem_task(struct usbd_device *dev, struct usb_task *task); void usb_wait_task(struct usbd_device *dev, struct usb_task *task); void usb_rem_wait_task(struct usbd_device *dev, struct usb_task *task); void usb_init_task(struct usb_task *task, void (*fn)(void *), void *arg, char type); DESCRIPTION The USB stack provides an API to manage task execution in a thread context at the soonest opportunity. There are three different task queues that are executed on two separate threads. All tasks executed via the USB task API are serialized with USB events such as device detachments. The usb_add_task() function enqueues a task to be executed by the task thread. Subsequent calls to usb_add_task() will not result in multiple executions being scheduled. The task structure must already be initialised by usb_init_task(). The usb_rem_task() function removes a scheduled task from its queue. If the work was already executed or has not been added to the task queue, the call will have no effect. Calling usb_rem_task() while the task is executing will not abort it. The usb_wait_task() function sleeps until the given task is neither queued for execution nor currently running. The usb_rem_wait_task() function is the equivalent of calling usb_rem_task() followed by usb_wait_task(). The usb_init_task() macro prepares the task structure task to be used in future calls to usb_add_task(), usb_rem_task(), usb_wait_task(), and usb_rem_wait_task(). task will be prepared to call the function fn with the argument specified by arg. The type of the task determines the queue and thread that will be used for its execution: USB_TASK_TYPE_GENERIC Tasks used for general work that need to happen in a process context. USB_TASK_TYPE_EXPLORE Device discovery tasks exploring the tree from the root. USB_TASK_TYPE_ABORT Tasks of this type execute on a dedicated thread not shared with other USB task types. Most drivers will only define tasks of type USB_TASK_TYPE_GENERIC. Note that USB_TASK_TYPE_ABORT tasks are only used by host controller drivers and should never be used by drivers. Once initialised, the task can be used repeatedly in the API functions listed above and does not need to be reinitialised unless the function called and/or its argument must change. CONTEXT usb_task_add() can be called from any context. SEE ALSO usb(4), task_add(9) FreeBSD 14.1-RELEASE-p8 January 19, 2021 FreeBSD 14.1-RELEASE-p8
