If I `OvmfPkg/builds.sh qemu -usb -device usb-audio -device qemu-xhci` I see 2 USB handle?

When you open EXCLUSIVE you are kicking other people off the handles. I’m not sure that is a good idea for you to do that to every USB handle in the system. If there was a handle that represented a USB to USB bridge seems like you could kick all the children off….

So when you are probing try using GET_PROTOCOL, and only use EXCLUSIVE after you find the device you want to manage. 

Thanks,

Thanks, Andrew. So it appears as though only a single handle exists
("AF: DevicePath(..)/Pci(0x1D,0x0)/USB(0x0,0x0)) USBIO") but my app is
getting two handles, one of which doesn't actually exist. I still am
unsure why though. Getting verbose info about handle AF yields an
interface with class 0x01, subclass 0x01, and protocol 0x04, so this
appears to match the USB audio control interface. However, no audio
streaming device is available, as I would expect. Attempting to set
the interface to `1` also fails on the UAC device (though the USB
specification does note that this is not necessarily an error and may
just indicate that that interface setting is not supported so my app
currently just continues on regardless). I am running with qemu args
`-usb -device usb-audio,... -audiodev ...`. I've tried with `-device
qemu-xhci ...` but I get the same result.

Okay, so I just tried dh -v 7EDE4C18 (that was the handle that I'm
getting from `HandleBuffer()`) and it says "dh: Handle - '7EDE4C18'
not found". So I'm definitely confused because that's what
`HandleBuffer()` is getting me. Should I pre-allocate the buffer?


Ethin,

The UEFI Shell `dh` command  UI uses handle numbers from 0 - N as hex
digits. You have use these abstract values with the `dh` command. For
example:  use `dh -v A1` to see the actual handle value for A1 (7EBA9598).
You can search handles that contain a specific protocol...

I mean, possible... The code I'm using to initialize the handle buffer
is
this:

```C
EFI_STATUS EFIAPI UefiMain(IN EFI_HANDLE imageHandle, IN
EFI_SYSTEM_TABLE*
st) {
Print(L"Attempting to find USB IO protocol\n");
UINTN numHandles = 0;
UINTN i = 0;
UINT32 UsbStatus = 0;
EFI_HANDLE* handles = NULL;
EFI_USB_IO_PROTOCOL* UsbIo = NULL;
EFI_STATUS status = st->BootServices->LocateHandleBuffer(ByProtocol,
&gEfiUsbIoProtocolGuid, NULL, &numHandles, &handles);
if (EFI_ERROR(status)) {
  Print(L"Cannot find any handles for USB devices, reason: %r\n",
status);
  return EFI_ABORTED;
}
Print(L"Found %d USB devices; enumerating\n", numHandles);
for (; i < numHandles; ++i) {
  Print(L"Trying to open handle %d (%x)... ", i, handles[i]);
  status = st->BootServices->OpenProtocol(handles[i],
&gEfiUsbIoProtocolGuid, (void**)&UsbIo, imageHandle, NULL,
EFI_OPEN_PROTOCOL_EXCLUSIVE);
  if (EFI_ERROR(status)) {
    Print(L"%r, skipping\n", status);
    continue;
  }
  // ...
```
I've done my best to follow SEI secure C coding standards, like
initializing all variables, regardless of type -- e.g. initializing
pointers to 0/NULL. But I will definitely try that idea.

Hey all,

So my UsbAudio.efi app has hit a bit of a roadblock. This code:

```C
 status = st->BootServices->OpenProtocol(handles[i],
&gEfiUsbIoProtocolGuid, (void**)&UsbIo, imageHandle, NULL,
EFI_OPEN_PROTOCOL_EXCLUSIVE);
 if (EFI_ERROR(status)) {

How are you constructing handle[]? Could it have gotten stale? You
could
print out the value of handle[I] on the failure.

The contents of a handle are not defined, but the current
implementation
is
a pointer to an IHANDLE internal data structure in the DXE Core. If you
are
at the UEFI Shell and you `dh -v <handleNum> it will show the
<handleNum>
and the value.

Shell> dh -v 98
98: 6d5CF18
….

I think you can `dh -p UsbIo’ to get the list of the UsbIo handles.

So you can poke around and see what is happening on that handle.

I guess the handle[] array could be getting corrupted? So you could
check
for that?

Thanks,

Andrew Fish

Is giving me EFI_INVALID_PARAMETER and I don’t know why. I don't think
I'm violating any of its constraints, according to the specification,
and I haven't touched this code since it was written. It also happens
irregularly: sometimes it happens on the USB audio streaming device,
or if I have a device plugged in it might happen on that device, you
get the idea. But it doesn't consistently fail. Does anybody have any
idea what's going on?
