libusb bulk transfer

Question

I am trying to implement user space usb driver using libusb1.0.9. I have lpc2148 blueboard(ARM7) with me..This board is loaded with opensource USB stack/firmware by Mr. Bertrik

Answer 1

Try the code given below and it should work on lpc2148. I have tested this with a lpc2148 configured to receive an interrupt from USB after a write happens (from user-space) and RTC starts running.

Answering to your question whether it involves kernel driver in read/write or not, as far as I have studied, You have to detach the kernel driver and claim the interface using libusb APIs. Though I am not sure whether it can be done without detaching it or not.
