Please pardon me for jumping in in the middle of a conversation. I know practically zero about f_midi. But nevertheless... How can you ever have req->actual < req->length for a usb_request on an IN endpoint? The only way that can happen is if some sort of error or exceptional event occurred, for example, if the transfer was cancelled before it could run to completion. In such cases I doubt that you really want to retransmit the data. Particularly since part of it probably was received by the host -- do you really want to send that part of the data a second time? Don't bother to answer if this doesn't make any sense...
