NAME

usb_clear_halt - tells device to clear endpoint halt/stall condition  

SYNOPSIS

int usb_clear_halt (struct usb_device * dev, int pipe);  

ARGUMENTS

dev
device whose endpoint is halted
pipe
endpoint ``pipe'' being cleared
 

CONTEXT

!in_interrupt ()  

DESCRIPTION

This is used to clear halt conditions for bulk and interrupt endpoints, as reported by URB completion status. Endpoints that are halted are sometimes referred to as being ``stalled''. Such endpoints are unable to transmit or receive data until the halt status is cleared. Any URBs queued for such an endpoint should normally be unlinked by the driver before clearing the halt condition, as described in sections 5.7.5 and 5.8.5 of the USB 2.0 spec.

Note that control and isochronous endpoints don't halt, although control endpoints report ``protocol stall'' (for unsupported requests) using the same status code used to report a true stall.

This call is synchronous, and may not be used in an interrupt context.

Returns zero on success, or else the status code returned by the underlying usb_control_msg call.
