Hi, I am looking at usb_sg_init().
void usb_sg_wait (struct usb_sg_request *io) { int i, entries = io->entries; /* queue the urbs. */ spin_lock_irq (&io->lock); for (i = 0; i < entries && !io->status; i++) { int retval; io->urbs [i]->dev = io->dev; retval = usb_submit_urb (io->urbs [i], GFP_ATOMIC); /* after we submit, let completions or cancelations fire; * we handshake using io->status. */ spin_unlock_irq (&io->lock); switch (retval) { /* maybe we retrying will recover */ case -ENXIO: // hc didn't queue this one case -EAGAIN: case -ENOMEM: io->urbs[i]->dev = NULL; retval = 0; i--; yield (); break; In essence this leaves handling a persistent failure to the generic scsi layer, which will timeout and abort the request. Is there any objection to report the URB where it failed to the immediate user and let him retry the remainder or handle the error any other way? I dimly remember discussing this routine in the past.
