Since with the ehci and xhci controllers a single packet can be larger
then maxpacketsize, it is possible for the result of a single packet
to be both having transferred some data as well as the transfer to have
an error.
An example would be an input transfer from a bulk endpoint successfully
receiving 1 or more maxpacketsize packets from the device, followed
by a packet signalling halt.
While already touching all the devices and controllers handle_packet /
handle_data / handle_control code, also change the return type of
these functions to void, solely storing the status in the packet. To
make the code paths for regular versus async packet handling more
uniform.
This patch unfortunately is somewhat invasive, since makeing the qemu
usb core deal with this requires changes everywhere. This patch only
prepares the usb core for this, all the hcd / device changes are done
in such a way that there are no functional changes.
This patch has been tested with uhci and ehci hcds, together with usb-audio,
usb-hid and usb-storage devices, as well as with usb-redir redirection
with a wide variety of real devices.
Note that there is usually no need to directly set packet->actual_length
form devices handle_data callback, as that is done by usb_packet_copy()

Older versions (anything but the latest) of Linux usbfs + libusb(x),
will submit larger (bulk) transfers split into multiple 16k submissions,
which means that rather then all tds getting linked into the queue in
one atomic operarion they get linked in a bunch at a time, which could
cause problems if:
1) We scan the queue while libusb is in the middle of submitting a split
bulk transfer
2) While this bulk transfer is pending we migrate to another host.
The problem is that after 2, the new host will rescan the queue and
combine the packets in one large transfer, where as 1) has caused the
original host to see them as 2 transfers. This patch fixes this by stopping
combinging if we detect a 16k transfer with its int_req flag set.
This should not adversely effect performance for other cases as:
1) Linux never sets the interrupt flag on packets other then the last
2) Windows does set the in_req flag on each td, but will submit large
transfers in 20k tds thus never triggering the check

Currently we only do pipelining for output endpoints, since to properly
support short-not-ok semantics we can only have one outstanding input
packet. Since the ehci and uhci controllers have a limited per td packet
size guests will split large input transfers to into multiple packets,
and since we don't pipeline these, this comes with a serious performance
penalty.
This patch adds helper functions to (re-)combine packets which belong to 1
transfer at the guest device-driver level into 1 large transger. This can be
used by (redirection) usb-devices to enable pipelining for input endpoints.
This patch will combine packets together until a transfer terminating packet
is encountered. A terminating packet is a packet which meets one or more of
the following conditions:
1) The packet size is *not* a multiple of the endpoint max packet size
2) The packet does *not* have its short-not-ok flag set
3) The packet has its interrupt-on-complete flag set
The short-not-ok flag of the combined packet is that of the terminating packet.
Multiple combined packets may be submitted to the device, if the combined
packets do not have their short-not-ok flag set, enabling true pipelining.
If a combined packet does have its short-not-ok flag set the queue will
wait with submitting further packets to the device until that packet has
completed.
Once enabled in the usb-redir and ehci code, this improves the speed (MB/s)
of a Linux guest reading from a USB mass storage device by a factor of
1.2 - 1.5.
And the main reason why I started working on this, when reading from a pl2303
USB<->serial converter, it combines the previous 4 packets submitted per
device-driver level read into 1 big read, reducing the number of packets / sec
by a factor 4, and it allows to have multiple reads outstanding. This allows
for much better latency tolerance without the pl2303's internal buffer
overflowing (which was happening at 115200 bps, without serial flow control).
