NAME

usb_ep_fifo_status - returns number of bytes in fifo, or error  

SYNOPSIS

int usb_ep_fifo_status (struct usb_ep * ep);  

ARGUMENTS

ep
the endpoint whose fifo status is being checked.
 

DESCRIPTION

FIFO endpoints may have ``unclaimed data'' in them in certain cases, such as after aborted transfers. Hosts may not have collected all the IN data written by the gadget driver, as reported by a request completion. The gadget driver may not have collected all the data written OUT to it by the host. Drivers that need precise handling for fault reporting or recovery may need to use this call.

This returns the number of such bytes in the fifo, or a negative errno if the endpoint doesn't use a FIFO or doesn't support such precise handling.
