I'm trying to send/receive audio over USB from my embedded linux device to/from a Windows host.
I understand there are 2 protocols to send audio over USB - USB Audio Class 1 and 2 (UAC1 & UAC2). I found them explained here: http://www.thewelltemperedcomputer.com/HW/USB_Audio.htm.
I have currently used the existing UAC1 device driver in Linux to get audio from the host PC. It works for me. I am now trying to change the device driver to also be capable of sending audio to the host PC.
I see that there's a UAC2 driver (in the latest Linux kernel) that both sends and receives audio from the host. But I'd like to have a UAC1 driver that does that, so that I don't have to install any extra drivers on the Windows host (especially ones I have to buy: http://www.thesycon.de/eng/usb_audiodriver.shtml).
I've modified the linux device driver at linux/drivers/usb/gadget/f_audio.c (I'm using an older kernel). I've changed the USB header descriptor to include the extra endpoint for sending audio to host.
static struct usb_descriptor_header *hs_audio_desc[] = {
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&std_ac_if_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&ac_hdr_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&usb_it_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&usb_ot_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&std_as_out_if0_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&std_as_out_if1_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&as_out_hdr_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&as_out_fmt1_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&hs_epout_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&as_iso_out_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&std_as_in_if0_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&std_as_in_if1_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&as_in_hdr_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&as_in_fmt1_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&hs_epin_desc,
(struct usb_descriptor_header *)&as_iso_in_desc,
NULL,
};
The OUT endpoint is defined as:
struct usb_endpoint_descriptor hs_epout_desc = {
.bLength = USB_DT_ENDPOINT_SIZE,
.bDescriptorType = USB_DT_ENDPOINT,
.bmAttributes = USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_ISOC | USB_ENDPOINT_SYNC_ASYNC,
.wMaxPacketSize = __constant_cpu_to_le16(OUT_EP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE),
.bInterval = 4,
};
The IN endpoint is defined as:
struct usb_endpoint_descriptor hs_epin_desc = {
.bLength = USB_DT_ENDPOINT_SIZE,
.bDescriptorType = USB_DT_ENDPOINT,
.bEndpointAddress = USB_DIR_IN,
.bmAttributes = USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_ISOC | USB_ENDPOINT_SYNC_ASYNC,
.wMaxPacketSize = __constant_cpu_to_le16(OUT_EP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE),
.bInterval = 4,
};
In epautoconf.c, the bEndpointAddress field is usually OR'ed with the endpoint number. I see in my case that this is happening. The 'bEndpointAddress' field for my OUT endpoint is 0x01 and for my IN endpoint is 0x81 when I print it in epautoconf.c. I'm however not able to see it on the host side. On my Windows PC, I use USB View tool to see the descriptors and I see that the values are 0x00 and 0x80.
What could have possibly changed the value of bEndpointAdress?
These are the USB descriptors I see in Windows using USB View tool:

Why won't Windows install the UAC1 driver?
