Alexey Kruglov alexey.kruglov at gmail.comHi. Device removal detection code in _libusb_callback in librtlsdr.c may be buggy. Every time we get any status other than LIBUSB_TRANSFER_COMPLETED (including LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR) the code doesn't resubmit current buffer, and we get the real number of working buffers decreased by one. If that number goes down to 0, rtlsdr_read_async() will hang. Linux version tries to control it by counting the number of LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR buffers that came in row in dev->xfer_errors. But if we already have _one_ failed buffer during the whole transfer up to the moment, that counter will never reach dev->xfer_buf_num. So it seems more straightforward to 1. count the failed buffers and rtlsdr_cancel_async() when it reaches 0 or some sensible threshold, and 2. maybe resubmit some kinds of the failed buffers other than LIBUSB_TRANSFER_COMPLETED, if it makes sense. I am not a libusb guru and it's not well documented in this part, so I am not sure about my second point. Hoping some librtlsdr developers will appear on this list. -- GPG fp: 6DFA 1186 7576 DE60 6CCB EB39 AD81 1733 EEBB 970A
