The correct way is to poll interrupt pipe. Another thing I added is the ability to do background transfers. It is important for USB keyboard support because otherwise we lose messages on keyboard interrupt pipe. It triggered a bug in uhci module. Now there are 2 issues: 1) code is new or modified. Needs testing. 2) On yeeloong the data read from mass storage is sometimes corrupted. Happens in mainline, not sure about other branches. It seems that it wasn't the case before. It's either a regression (perhaps from my code for partial transfers) or cache issues (some cache isn't correctly flushed) > Could I help You with it - at least with testing ? > Yes, a test run of keylayouts branch on your hardware would be helpful.
