+This chapter presents an overview of the \acrfull{USB} Full Speed interface, with focus on the features used in the GEX firmware. \gls{USB} is a versatile and powerful interface which replaces several older technologies; for this reason its specification is very complex and going into all details is hardly possible. We will cover the basic principles and terminology of \gls{USB} and focus on the parts relevant for the GEX project. More information about the bus can be found in the official specification \cite{usbif-spec}, related documents published by the USB Implementers Forum, and other on-line resources \cite{usb-nutshell,usb-made-simple}.

 Endpoints can be either unidirectional or bidirectional; the direction from the host to a function is called OUT, the other direction (function the host) is called IN. A bidirectional endpoint is technically composed of a IN and OUT endpoint with the same number. All transactions (both IN and OUT) are initiated by the host; functions have to wait for their turn. Endpoint 0 is bidirectional, always enabled, and serves as a \textit{control endpoint}. The host uses the control endpoint to read information about the device and configure it as needed.

+\subsection{Descriptors}
 
+USB devices are introspectable, that is, the host can learn about a newly connected device automatically by probing it, without any user interaction. This is accomplished using a \textit{descriptor table}, a binary structure stored in the function and read by the host through the control endpoint (default pipe) after the device is attached.
+
+Each descriptor starts with a declaration of its length (in bytes), followed by its type,  allowing the host to skip unknown descriptors without having to discard the rest of the table. The descriptors are logically nested and form a tree-like structure, but they are stored sequentially in the descriptor table and the lengths do no include sub-descriptors.
+
+The topmost descriptor holds information about the entire function, including the vendor and product IDs which uniquely identifies the device model. It is followed by a Configuration descriptor, grouping a set of interfaces. More than one configuration may be present and available for the host to choose from; however, this is rarely used or needed. Each configuration descriptor is followed by one or more interface descriptors, each with its class-specific sub-descriptors and/or endpoint descriptors.
+
+The descriptor table used by GEX is captured in figure \ref{fig:gex-descriptors} for illustration. The vendor and product IDs were obtained from the pid.codes repository \cite{pidcodes} providing free product codes to open source projects. The official way of obtaining the unique code involves high recurring fees (\$4000 per annum) to the USB Implementers Forum, Inc. and is therefore not affordable for non-commercial use; alternatively, a product code may be obtained from some \gls{MCU} vendors if their product is used in the device.

 \section{USB Physical Layer}
 
-\gls{USB} uses differential signaling with \gls{NRZI} encoding and bit stuffing (the insertion of dummy bits to prevent long intervals in the same \gls{DC} level). The encoding, together with frame formatting, checksum verification, retransmission, and other low level aspects of the \gls{USB} connection are entirely handled by the \gls{USB} physical interface block in the microcontroller's silicon; normally we do not need to worry about those details. What needs more attention are the electrical characteristics of the bus, which need to be understood correctly for a successful schematic and \gls{PCB} design.

What needs our attention are the electrical characteristics of the physical connection, which need to be understood correctly for a successful schematic and \gls{PCB} design.
 
-\noindent
 The \gls{USB} cable contains 4 conductors: V$_\mathrm{BUS}$ (+5\,V), D+, D--, and \gls{GND}. The data lines, D+ and D--, are also commonly labeled DP and DM. This differential pair should be routed in parallel on the \gls{PCB} and kept at the same length.
 
-\gls{USB} versions are often backwards compatible, even keeping the same connector shape. The bus speed to use is requested by the device using a 1.5\,k$\Omega$ pull-up resistor to 3.3\,V on one of the data lines: for Full Speed, D+ is pulled high (figure \ref{fig:usb-pullup-fs}), for Low Speed it's on D--. The polarity of the differential signals is inverted depending on the used speed. Some microcontrollers integrate the correct pull-up resistor inside the \gls{USB} block (including out STM32F072), removing the need for an external resistor.

-When a function wants to be re-enumerated by the host, which is needed to reload the descriptors and re-attach the correct drivers, it can momentarily remove the pull-up resistor, which the host will interpret as if the device was plugged out. With an internal pull-up this can be done by flipping a bit in a control register. An external resistor can be connected through a transistor controlled by a \gls{GPIO} pin.

With an internal pull-up, this can be done by flipping a bit in a control register. An external resistor may be connected through a transistor controlled by a \gls{GPIO} pin. As discussed in \cite{eev-gpio-pu}, a GPIO pin might be used to drive the pull-up directly, though this has not been verified by the author.
 
 The V$_\mathrm{BUS}$ line supplies power to \textit{bus-powered} devices. \textit{Self-powered} devices can leave this pin unconnected and instead use an external power supply. The maximal current drawn from the V$_\mathrm{BUS}$ line is configured using a descriptor and should not be exceeded, but experiments suggest this is often not enforced.

-The \gls{MSC} specification defines multiple \textit{transport protocols} that can be selected using the descriptors. For it's simplicity, the \gls{BOT} will be used. \gls{BOT} uses two bulk endpoints for reading and writing blocks of data and for the exchange of control commands and status messages.

All but one device used the SCSI command set, one (the oldest thumb drive) used \textit{SFF-8070i}. A list of possible command sets can be found in TODO (usb spec overview)}.
-The command set's commands let the host read information about the attached storage, such as its capacity, and check for media presence and readiness to write or detach. This is used e.g. for the "Safely Remove" function which checks that all internal buffers have been written to Flash.

+Historically meant for modem communication, \gls{CDCACM} is now the de facto standard way of making \gls{USB} devices appear as serial ports on the host \gls{OS}. Its specification can be found in \cite{usbif-cdc}. \gls{CDCACM} is a combination of two related classes, \gls{CDC} handling the data communication and \gls{ACM}, which defines control commands. Three endpoints are used: bulk IN, bulk OUT, and interrupt OUT.
 
-\todo{verify this vvv}
-The interrupt endpoint is used for control commands and notifications while the bulk endpoints are used for useful data. \gls{ACM} stands for \textit{Abstract Control Model} and it's a \gls{CDC}'s subclass that defines the control messages format. Since we don't use a physical UART and the line is virtual both on the PC and in the end device, the control commands can be ignored.
+The interrupt endpoint is used for control commands, such as toggling the auxiliary lines of RS-232 or setting the baud rate. Since GEX does not translate the data communication to any physical UART, those commands are not applicable and can be silently ignored.
 
-An interesting property of this class is that the bulk endpoints transport raw data without any wrapping frames. By changing the device class in the descriptor table to 255 (\textit{Vendor Specific Class}), we can retain the messaging functionality of the designated endpoints and access the device directly using e.g. libUSB, while the \gls{OS} will ignore it and won't try to attach any driver that could interfere otherwise. The same trick can be used to hide the mass storage class when not needed.

 \subsection{Interface Association: Composite Class}
 
-Since it's creation, the \gls{USB} specification expected that each function will have only one interface enabled at a time. After it became apparent that there is a need for having multiple unrelated interfaces work in parallel, a workaround called the \gls{IAD} was introduced. \gls{IAD} is an entry in the descriptor table that defines which interfaces belong together and should be handled by the same software driver.
-
-To use the \gls{IAD}, the function's class must be set to 239 (0xEF), subclass 2 and protocol 1, so the \gls{OS} knows to look for the presence of \glspl{IAD} before binding drivers to any interfaces.
-
-% TODO link to some references..
-
-In GEX, the \gls{IAD} is used to tie together the \gls{CDC} and \gls{ACM} interfaces while leaving out the \gls{MSC} interface which should be handled by a different driver. To make this work, a new \textit{composite class} had to be created as a wrapper for the library-provided \gls{MSC} and \gls{CDCACM} implementations.

+        <p align="left"><strong>How long can a device return NAK in a mass-storage 
+          bulk transfer?</strong></p>
+        <p align="left">The mass-storage specification doesn't define a timeout 
+          value. Hosts typically will wait 20-30 seconds.</p>
+        <p align="left"> <strong>Can my device's firmware read and store files when 
+          the device isn't attached to a host?</strong></p>
+        <p align="left">Yes, if the firmware supports a file system such as FAT16 
+          or FAT32. Note that the mass-storage device should have only one mass-storage 
+          master at a time. When the device is attached to and configured by a USB 
+          host, the firmware shouldn't attempt to read or write to files on its 
+          own. </p>

+      <blockquote>
+        <p align="left"><strong>What is the SCSI transparent command set?</strong></p>
+        <p align="left">In the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110226031619/http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs">Mass Storage Class Specification Overview</a>, Table 
+          2.1 says that devices with subclass code 06h implement the &quot;SCSI 
+          transparent command set.&quot; The SCSI specifications are available from 
+          <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110226031619/http://www.t10.org/drafts.htm#SCSI3_Family">t10.org</a>, but these documents don't 
+          mention a transparent command set.</p>
+        <p align="left"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110226031619/https://lists.one-eyed-alien.net/pipermail/usb-storage/2004-September/000795.html">According 
+          to the inventor of the  subclass</a>, subclass 06h means that the host should determine 
+          the device type by issuing a SCSI INQUIRY command. In the returned INQUIRY 
+          data, bits 4..0 of byte 0 specify a peripheral device type (PDT). The 
+          SCSI Primary Commands (SPC) specification defines various PDTs and the 
+          specifications they should comply with. </p>
+        <p align="left"><strong>What value should I use for bInterfaceSubClass in 
+          the interface descriptor?</strong></p>
+        <p align="left">New designs should use bInterfaceSubClass = 06h (SCSI transparent 
+          command set). The device's response to a SCSI INQUIRY command is then 
+          the single source where the device declares its command set (via the PERIPHERAL 
+          DEVICE TYPE (PDT) and VERSION codes). A device should use a different 
+          bInterfaceSubClass only if it must for some reason adhere to a command 
+          set that has no PDT code (such as SFF-8070i). See the SPC document for 
+          a list of PDTs.        </p>
+        <p align="left"><strong>What commands should my device support?</strong></p>
+        <p align="left">In the response to a SCSI INQUIRY command, a device returns 
+          a PERIPHERAL DEVICE TYPE code and a VERSION code. For hard drives, flash 
+          drives, and similar devices, PERIPHERAL DEVICE TYPE = 00h (direct access 
+          block device) and VERSION = 04h (SPC-2) or 05h (SPC-3). The code in the 
+          VERSION corresponds to a command set, and the command set's specification 
+          lists mandatory commands.</p>
+        <p align="left">In some cases, additional INQUIRY data can provide more 
+          information, including vendor-specific data, but not every host will retrieve 
+          more than the first 36 bytes of the response. </p>
+        <p align="left">The SPC specification documents the INQUIRY command. Also 
+          see the specification for your device type for any device-specific information 
+          about the INQUIRY response.</p>
+        <p align="left">In practice, many devices don't implement every mandatory 
+          command and just concentrate on the commands used by any hosts the device 
+          is likely to connect to.</p>
+        <p align="left">The <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110226031619/http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/MSC-compliance-0_9a.pdf">Mass 
+          Storage Class Compliance Test Specification</a>  names required and optional 
+          commands for different PDTs that want to pass USB-IF's mass-storage compliance 
+          tests.</p>

+      <blockquote>
+        <p align="left"><strong>Can my device use the Reduced Block Command (RBC) 
+          set?</strong></p>
+        <p align="left">Windows doesn't support RBC (bInterfaceSubClass 01h or 06h 
+          and PDT = 0Eh), so if you design an RBC device, you'll need to provide 
+          a driver for the host. The USB mass storage overview document from usb.org 
+          incorrectly says that flash drives typically use RBC. Flash drives use 
+          bInterfaceSubClass 06h (SCSI transparent command set) with PDT = 00h (direct-access 
+          block device), the same as hard drives.</p>
