Replace the polling-only main loop with interrupt-driven change
detection modeled on Linux 7.1 hub_irq().
Key changes:
1. Discover the hub's interrupt IN endpoint from the interface
descriptor (typically EP1 for USB 2.x, may be absent for USB 3).
Use EndpointTy::Interrupt + EndpDirection::In to match.
2. Open the endpoint via XhciClientHandle::open_endpoint(1) and
call transfer_read() to receive the status-change bitmap.
3. Build a per-port change mask from the bitmap:
Port N is bit (N-1) of byte (N-1)/8. Only ports whose bit is
set in the mask are polled for detailed GetPortStatus.
4. Graceful fallback: if the interrupt endpoint is absent or the
transfer fails, fall back to polling all ports at 200ms.
5. Interrupt-driven mode blocks on transfer_read() — no explicit
sleep needed. Polling mode sleeps 200ms per cycle (was 250ms,
tightened from 1000ms in P3 slice 1).
6. Added XhciEndpHandle import for endpoint operations.
Cross-reference: Linux 7.1
- drivers/usb/core/hub.c: hub_irq() — URB completion handler
- drivers/usb/core/hub.c: hub_configure() — interrupt endpoint setup
- include/linux/usb/ch11.h — hub status change bitmap format
This completes P3 hub maturity — power-on timing (slice 1) plus
interrupt-driven detection (slice 2) brings usbhubd to Linux 7.1
parity for the two most important hub operations.
Base
Repository containing various system daemons, that are considered fundamental for the OS.
You can see what each component does in the following list:
- audiod : Daemon used to process the sound drivers audio
- bootstrap : First code that the kernel executes, responsible for spawning the init daemon
- daemon : Redox daemon library
- drivers
- init : Daemon used to start most system components and programs
- initfs : Filesystem with the necessary system components to run RedoxFS
- ipcd : Daemon used for inter-process communication
- logd : Daemon used to log system components and daemons
- netstack : Daemon used for networking
- ptyd : Daemon used for pseudo-terminal
- ramfs : RAM filesystem
- randd : Daemon used for random number generation
- zerod : Daemon used to discard all writes and fill read buffers with zero
How To Contribute
To learn how to contribute you need to read the following document:
If you want to contribute to drivers read its README
Development
To learn how to do development with these system components inside the Redox build system you need to read the Build System and Coding and Building pages.
How To Build
It is recommended to build this system component via the Redox build system, you can learn how to do it on the Building Redox page.
To build and test outside the build system, install redoxer then use check.sh script to build or test:
./check.sh- Check build for x86_64./check.sh --arch=ARCH- Check build for specific ARCH (aarch64,i586,riscv64gc)./check.sh --all- Check build for all ARCH./check.sh --test- Check the base system boots up on x86_64
You can also use make install to inspect the content on ./sysroot, or make test-gui to test booting with orbital interactively.
