USBD_QueryUsbCapability function (usbdlib.h)

  • Artikel

The USBD_QueryUsbCapability routine is called by a WDM client driver to determine whether the underlying USB driver stack and the host controller hardware support a specific capability. Note for Windows Driver Framework (WDF) Drivers:  If your client driver is a WDF-based driver, then you must call the WdfUsbTargetDeviceQueryUsbCapability method instead of USBD_QueryUsbCapability.

Syntax

NTSTATUS USBD_QueryUsbCapability(
  [in]            USBD_HANDLE USBDHandle,
  [in]            const GUID  *CapabilityType,
  [in]            ULONG       OutputBufferLength,
  [in, out]       PUCHAR      OutputBuffer,
  [out, optional] PULONG      ResultLength
);

Parameters

[in] USBDHandle

USBD handle that is retrieved by the client driver in a previous call to the USBD_CreateHandle routine.

[in] CapabilityType

Pointer to a GUID that represents the capability for which the client driver wants to retrieve information. The possible PGUID values are as follows:

  • GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_CHAINED_MDLS
  • GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_STATIC_STREAMS
  • GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_SELECTIVE_SUSPEND
  • GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_FUNCTION_SUSPEND
  • GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_DEVICE_CONNECTION_HIGH_SPEED_COMPATIBLE
  • GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_DEVICE_CONNECTION_SUPER_SPEED_COMPATIBLE
  • GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_TIME_SYNC

[in] OutputBufferLength

Length, in bytes, of the buffer pointed to by OutputBuffer.

[in, out] OutputBuffer

Pointer to a caller-allocated buffer. Certain capability requests return additional information in an output buffer. For those requests, you must allocate the buffer and provide a pointer to the buffer in the OutputBuffer parameter. Currently, only the static-streams capability request requires an output buffer of the type USHORT. The buffer is filled by USBD_QueryUsbCapability with the maximum number of streams supported per endpoint.

Other capability requests do not require an output buffer. For those requests, you must set OutputBuffer to NULL and OutputBufferLength to 0.

[out, optional] ResultLength

Pointer to a ULONG variable that receives the actual number of bytes in the buffer pointed to by OutputBuffer. The caller can pass NULL in ResultLength. If ResultLength is not NULL, the received value is less than or equal to the OutputBufferLength value.

Return value

The USBD_QueryUsbCapability routine returns an NT status code.

Possible values include, but are not limited to, the status codes listed in the following table.

Return code Description
STATUS_SUCCESS
 The request was successful and the specified capability is supported.
STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER
 The caller passed an invalid parameter value.
  • USBDHandle or CapabilityType is NULL.
  • OutputBuffer is NULL but OutputBufferLength indicates a nonzero value. Conversely, the caller provided an output buffer but the buffer length is 0.
STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED
 The specified capability is not supported by the underlying USB driver stack.
STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED
 The specified capability is not supported either by the host controller hardware or the USB driver stack.

Remarks

Windows 8 includes a new USB driver stack to support USB 3.0 devices. The new USB driver stack provides several new capabilities defined such as, stream support and chained MDLs that can be used by a client driver.

A client driver can determine the version of the underlying USB driver stack by calling the IsInterfaceVersionSupported routine.

The client driver can use the new capabilities only if the underlying USB driver stack and hardware support them. For example, in order to send I/O requests to a particular stream associated with a bulk endpoint, the underlying USB driver stack, the endpoint, and the host controller hardware must support the static streams capability. The client driver must not call IsInterfaceVersionSupported and assume the capabilities of the driver stack. Instead, the client driver must always call USBD_QueryUsbCapability to determine whether the USB driver stack and hardware support a particular capability.

The following table describes the USB-specific capabilities that a client driver can query through a USBD_QueryUsbCapability call.

Capability GUID Description
GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_CHAINED_MDLS If the USB driver stack supports chained MDLs, the client driver can provide the transfer data as a chain of MDLs that reference segmented buffers in physical memory. For more information, see MDL. Chained MDLs preclude the need for allocating and copying memory to create virtually contiguous buffers and therefore make I/O transfers more efficient. For more information, see How to Send Chained MDLs.
GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_STATIC_STREAMS If supported, the client driver can send I/O requests to streams in a bulk endpoint.

For the static streams query request, the client driver is required to provide an output buffer (USHORT). After the call completes and if the static streams capability is supported, the output buffer receives the maximum number of supported streams by the host controller.

The output buffer value does not indicate the maximum number of streams supported by the bulk endpoint in the device. To determine that number, the client driver must inspect the endpoint companion descriptor.

The USB driver stack in Windows 8 supports up to 255 streams.

If static streams are supported, the client driver can send I/O requests to the first stream (also called the default stream) by using the pipe handle obtained through a select-configuration request. For other streams in the endpoint, the client driver must open those streams and obtain pipe handles for them in order to send I/O requests. For more information about opening streams, see How to Open and Close Static Streams in a USB Bulk Endpoint.
GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_FUNCTION_SUSPEND This capability determines whether the underlying USB driver stack supports USB Function Suspend and Remote Wake-Up features. If supported, the driver stack can process a resume signal (for remote wake-up) from an individual function in a USB 3.0 composite device. Based on that signal, an individual function driver can exit the low-power state of its function.

The capability is intended to be used by a composite driver: the driver that is loaded as the function device object (FDO) in the device stack for the composite device. By default, the Microsoft-provided USB Generic Parent Driver (Usbccgp.sys) is loaded as the FDO.

If your driver replaces Usbccgp.sys, the driver must be able to request remote wake-up and propagate the resume signal from the USB driver stack. Before implementing that logic, the driver must determine the USB driver stack's support for the function suspend capability by calling USBD_QueryUsbCapability. Usbccgp.sys in Windows 8 implements function suspend.

For a code example and more information about function suspend, see How to Implement Function Suspend in a Composite Driver.
GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_SELECTIVE_SUSPEND Determines whether the underlying USB driver stack supports selective suspend.

For information about selective suspend, see USB Selective Suspend.
GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_DEVICE_CONNECTION_HIGH_SPEED_COMPATIBLE Determines whether the bus is operating at high-speed or higher.
GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_DEVICE_CONNECTION_SUPER_SPEED_COMPATIBLE Determines whether the bus is operating at SuperSpeed or higher.
GUID_USB_CAPABILITY_TIME_SYNC Determines whether the frame number and QPC association feature is supported      on the controller. 
 

Examples

The code snippet shows how to call USBD_QueryUsbCapability to determine the capabilities of the underlying USB driver stack.

Routine Description:
This helper routine queries the underlying USB driver stack
for specific capabilities. This code snippet assumes that 
USBD handle was retrieved by the client driver in a 
previous call to the USBD_CreateHandle routine.

of the stack as reported by IoAttachDeviceToDeviceStack.
