/*! \page usbk_power_management Power Management * libusbK uses the KMDF state machines for power management. Power * policies are managed through calls to \ref UsbK_SetPowerPolicy. * * In order to modify the power behavior of libusbK, default registry * settings can be modified in the device's INF. These values must be * written to the device specific location in the registry by adding the * values in the HW.AddReg section of the INF. * * The registry values described in the following list can be specified in * the device's INF to modify the power behavior. * * \sa UsbK_GetPowerPolicy * \sa UsbK_SetPowerPolicy * * \section usbk_system_wake System Wake * This feature is controlled by the SystemWakeEnabled DWORD registry * setting. This value value indicates whether or not the device should be * allowed to wake the system from a low power state. * * \code HKR,,SystemWakeEnabled,0x00010001,1 \endcode * * A value of zero, or the absence of this value indicates that the device * is not allowed to wake the system. * * To allow a device to wake the system, set SystemWakeEnabled to a nonzero * value. A check box in the device Properties page is automatically * enabled so that the user can override the setting. * * \note Changing the SystemWakeEnabled setting has no affect on selective suspend, this registry value only pertains to system suspend. * * \section usbk_selective_suspend Selective Suspend * Selective suspend can be disabled by any of several system or libusbK * settings. A single setting cannot force libusbK to enable selective * suspend. * * The following power policy settings that are specified in \ref * UsbK_SetPowerPolicy's PolicyType parameter affect the behavior of * selective suspend: * - AUTO_SUSPEND \n * When set to zero, it does not set the device to selective suspend mode. * - SUSPEND_DELAY \n * Sets the time between when the device becomes idle and * when libusbK requests the device to go into selective suspend. * * The following list shows how the registry keys affect the selective * suspend feature: * - DeviceIdleEnabled * - This is a DWORD value. This registry value indicates whether or not the * device is capable of being powered down when idle (Selective Suspend). * - A value of zero, or the absence of this value indicates that the device * does not support being powered down when idle. * - A non-zero value indicates that the device supports being powered down * when idle. * - If DeviceIdleEnabled is not set, the value of the AUTO_SUSPEND power * policy setting is ignored. * - \code HKR,,DeviceIdleEnabled,0x00010001,1 \endcode \n * - DeviceIdleIgnoreWakeEnable * - When set to a nonzero value, it suspends the device even if it does not * support RemoteWake. * - \code HKR,,DeviceIdleIgnoreWakeEnable,0x00010001,1 \endcode \n * - UserSetDeviceIdleEnabled * - This value is a DWORD value. This registry value indicates whether or * not a check box should be enabled in the device Properties page that * allows a user to override the idle defaults. When * UserSetDeviceIdleEnabled is set to a nonzero value the check box is * enabled and the user can disable powering down the device when idle. A * value of zero, or the absence of this value indicates that the check box * is not enabled. * - If the user disables device power savings, the value of the AUTO_SUSPEND * power policy setting is ignored. * - If the user enables device power savings, then the value of AUTO_SUSPEND * is used to determine whether or not to suspend the device when idle. * - The UserSetDeviceIdleEnabled is ignored if DeviceIdleEnabled is not set. * - \code HKR,,UserSetDeviceIdleEnabled,0x00010001,1 \endcode \n * - DefaultIdleState * - This is a DWORD value. This registry value sets the default value of the * AUTO_SUSPEND power policy setting. This registry key is used to enable * or disable selective suspend when a handle is not open to the device. * - A value of zero or the absence of this value indicates that by default, * the device is not suspended when idle. The device be allowed to suspend * when idle only when the AUTO_SUSPEND power policy is enabled. * - A non-zero value indicates that by default the device is allowed to be * suspended when idle. * - This value is ignored if DeviceIdleEnabled is not set. * - \code HKR,,DefaultIdleState,0x00010001,1 \endcode \n * - DefaultIdleTimeout * - This is a DWORD value.

Policy | Enable if... | Behavior |
---|---|---|
SHORT_PACKET_TERMINATE | The device requires the OUT transfers to be terminated with a zero-length packet. Most devices do not have this requirement. |
If enabled (policy parameter value is TRUE or nonzero), every write request is followed
by a zero-length packet to the endpoint's pipe.
After sending all of the requested data to the host controller, libusbK sends a write request with a zero-length packet and then completes the request that was created by UsbK_WritePipe. |
AUTO_CLEAR_STALL | You do not want the failed transfers to leave the endpoint in a stalled state. This policy is useful only when you have multiple pending read requests to the endpoint when RAW_IO is disabled. |
|
PIPE_TRANSFER_TIMEOUT | You expect transfers to an endpoint to complete within a specific time. |
In Windows Vista, for all transfers (except transfers with RAW_IO enabled), libusbK queues the request until all previous transfers on the destination endpoint have been completed. The host controller does not include the queuing time in the calculation of the time-out interval. With RAW_IO enabled, libusbK does not queue the request. Instead, it passes the request directly to the USB stack, whether or not the USB stack is busy processing previous transfers. If the USB stack is busy, it can delay processing the new request. Note that this can cause a time-out. |
IGNORE_SHORT_PACKETS | RAW_IO is disabled and you do not want short packets to complete the read requests. |
|
ALLOW_PARTIAL_READS |
The device can send more data than requested. This is possible if the size of your
request buffer is a multiple of the maximum endpoint packet size.
Use if your application wants to read a few bytes to determine how many total bytes to read. |
|
AUTO_FLUSH |
ALLOW_PARTIAL _READS policy is enabled.
The device can send more data than was requested, and your application does not require any additional data. This is possible if the size of your request buffer is a multiple of the maximum endpoint packet size. |
AUTO_FLUSH defines libusbK's behavior when ALLOW_PARTIAL_READS is enabled. If ALLOW_PARTIAL_READS
is disabled, the AUTO_FLUSH value is ignored by libusbK.
libusbK can either discard the remaining data or send it with the caller's next read request.
|
RAW_IO |
Performance is a priority and the application submits simultaneous read requests
to the same endpoint.
RAW_IO imposes certain restrictions on the buffer that is passed by the caller in UsbK_ReadPipe:
|
If enabled, transfers bypass queuing and error handling to boost performance for
multiple read requests. libusbK handles read requests as follows:
|
RESET_PIPE_ON_RESUME | The device does not preserve its data toggle state across suspend. | On resume from suspend, libusbK resets the endpoint before it allows the caller to send new requests to the endpoint. |
