Hi David,
Thanks for your detailed reply.

OK. I understand this now. Earlier, I was seeing the host time out
and assumed that I was not doing something necessary to "ack" / "start
the status stage". Actually, the fault was occurring a bit earlier: my
read was failing for the reasons described in my other message of later
yesterday ("Gadgetfs: ep file_operations not changed in deferred config
case") and I'd love to hear any comments about that issue.

I'm using a Net2280 PCI card. With g_zero, test 14 passes when I run
it as test.sh does:
# ./testusb -D /proc/bus/usb/001/005 -t 14 -c 15000 -s 256 -v 1
unknown speed /proc/bus/usb/001/005
/proc/bus/usb/001/005 test 14, 6.164763 secs
Tests 0-13 pass (with g_zero) when run with default settings.
With gadgetfs and usb.c, tests 0-9 pass, and it hangs on test 10. Is
that expected?
Are you suggesting that I should run testusb against g_file_storage in
order to prove whether the system would support control OUT if my
gadgetfs app needed them?
Phil.
