80-V0548-1 Rev. E Page 8 QUALCOMM Proprietary

December 2002
 USB Mass Storage Model (cont.)
• Used by the USB task to support file transfers from a host
PC to the MMC media
– Device receives (via the OUT bulk endpoint) and parses
SCSI commands that are encapsulated in a received
command block wrapper. The USB task then issues the
appropriate request to the MMC device driver
– Responses from the MMC device driver are then sent to the
host in a command status block via the IN bulk endpoint

 SIO API
• USB ports are accessed through the SIO API
• SIO API presents a generic (more UNIX-like) interface
– sio_init() initializes the USB device controller if USB is
compiled in
– sio_open() is called by an application to gain control of a
USB port
– sio_transmit() is used to transmit data over a USB port
– sio_do_escaping()/sio_do_unescaping() are utility functions
that are used to expand and collapse control characters
within the data stream

80-V0548-1 Rev. E Page 14 QUALCOMM Proprietary

December 2002
 SIO API (cont.)
– sio_ioctl() is used to perform I/O control, such as
enabling/disabling flow control
– sio_close() is called when an application is done using a
USB port
– sio_disable_device() disables the USB driver

 Operation of the USB Driver (cont.)
• The SIO interface layer routes the function calls to the
appropriate physical layer driver
• The USB interface layer is the application side access to
the USB ports
• The USB device management handles the device
enumeration and power control
• The CDC device manager processes the RS-232
characteristics (except data). It processes the line coding
and the control line state

80-V0548-1 Rev. E Page 17 QUALCOMM Proprietary

December 2002
 Operation of the USB Driver (cont.)
• The Tx and Rx buffers utilize small or large DSM items.
They are placed on and removed from queues that are
processed by the application (N/A for Mass Storage). The
Rx buffer uses large DSM items when available.
Applications choose the DSM item size for Tx
• The Transfer Manager ensures that the buffers are
completely sent or received before processing other
buffers
• The Transaction Manager services the USB hardware
FIFOs, excluding the burst interface FIFOs

80-V0548-1 Rev. E Page 18 QUALCOMM Proprietary

December 2002
 Operation of the USB Driver (cont.)
• The USB task services the burst interface FIFOs when
signaled from the HDR RX task (DMSS 5500 only) or the
USB interrupt routine
• The Mass Storage Device Manager processes command
block wrappers received from the host and returns
command response wrappers
• The Mass Storage Device Manager interacts with the
MMC device driver to satisfy the actual I/O with the MMC
media
• All Mass Storage data is stored in static buffers owned by
the USB driver

 USB Performance
• Data rate is based on software speed (efficiency) within
the complete phone build
– In the DMSS 3100/3300, the USB driver is similar to the
UART driver; the data rates should be comparable to the
current UART configuration
– Improved performance is expected in all DMSS 5xxx and
DMSS 6xxx versions due to larger FIFO depths
– USB driver in DMSS 5500 satisfies performance
requirements for IS-856 Data Services
• Data rate is also based on the host side driver. The phone
can only send data to the PC as fast as the PC allows

80-V0548-1 Rev. E Page 27 QUALCOMM Proprietary

December 2002
 USB Host Side Requirements
• The MSM USB driver operates with the Microsoft® Win98
Second Edition and Windows 2000 operating systems
Both operating systems contain the USB CDC host
drivers. The CDC host drivers use the Abstract Control
Model, which the MSM USB driver supports. Windows
2000-based QUALCOMM USB Host Driver is required to
satisfy the higher data rates for IS-856 Data Services
• The host side must have INF files that work with the MSM
USB interface. The INF files identify which host drivers to
load when the MSM USB driver enumerates with the host
• For CDC operation, the MSM is represented as a dial-up
modem and is assigned a COM port on the host side

80-V0548-1 Rev. E Page 28 QUALCOMM Proprietary

December 2002
 USB Host Side Requirements (cont.)
• The Windows 2000-based QUALCOMM USB Host Driver
is required to support the USB Composite Device that
satisfies simultaneous data and diag communication
• For Mass Storage operation, the MSM is represented as a
removable disk on the host side
• For Mass Storage support, the host driver is provided by
SanDisk Corp

80-V0548-1 Rev. E Page 29 QUALCOMM Proprietary

December 2002
 Restrictions
• USB is not operational on Rev 0 or Rev 1 of the
MSM5200 ASIC
• Procomm (Symantec) does not support USB port
devices with any host platform
• WinFax (Symantec) is not reliable over USB port devices
with the Microsoft® Win98 Second Edition
