Greg Lee napsal(a):
Currently I've made a preliminary firmware for implementing the
CDC-ACM interface, however as Pavel kindly pointed out for me,
currently only 64Kbyte/sec is achieveable with this driver. I've read
the archives and from the discussions, I suspect that this is
connected to the NO_FSBR flag..
Questions which popped out of my mind:
1. Is there some standard way to allow for >64Kbytes/sec using the
2.6.x CDC-ACM driver? (I mean without modification of the sources, but
setting some #defines or such) I'd not mind a reasonably slower PCI
bus..
I don't know. I've never heard about a 64 KB/s limitation
for CDC-ACM.
This discussion of possible underlying data rate limitations in the CDC-ACM
implementation is worrisome. Does anyone have a precise answer for what the
data rate limitations are of these two implementations (usbserial and ACM)?
I've made a switch from embedded OS to Linux recently in order to take
advantage of Linux's native USB support and am wondering whether this was
the wrong move.
I'd be interested in whatever people have to say about this.
I have reported in this conference yet ("usbserial driver throughput low"
form Wed, 15 Jun 2005 22:01:07 -0400) that one guy from Czech Rep. had
rewritten cdc-acm. He uses 3 kernel threads and buffers to eliminate packet
fragmentation and jitter. I don't know if is ported to the 2.6.13, but in
those days on 2.6.11 kernel it worked fine.
Other man reviewed this patch and said it is 2.6.13 mature bad I don't know
why it wasn't merged to the new kernel version.
