Re: Help on patch submission process for a fix in rtlsdr

Hi, Long story short: I have a fix for a crash in Windows in librtlsdr when closing the device, and I'd love to submit a patch. I went through this page: https://osmocom.org/projects/cellular-infrastructure/wiki/Coding_standards and saw that I have to follow certain steps (design, review, etc) but I am not quite sure who to contact. For some projects, this is somehow automatized by means of Gerrit, but it looks that this is not the case for librtlsdr (yet) I'd like to do it the right way, how should I proceed? Should I post the patch here directly? Do I have to document the design of my fix and have it reviewed first somewhere else? Bit of backstory: some days ago I came across a crash in librtlsdr for Windows when closing the device (initially reported as a potential libusb bug, see https://github.com/libusb/libusb/issues/1043). Although workarounds existed (https://github.com/TALUAtGitHub/librtlsdr/commit/27d79d258c0fffb73afd3fffd3…) they relied on a somewhat arbitrary (1 ms) delay to give some time for libusb event callbacks to be triggered before resource cleanup. This was not working anymore, so I decided to look into it and ended up working on a solution. This solution involved refactoring the transfer / buffer array into an array of transfer objects that enabled synchronous cancellation of pending transfers (see https://github.com/BatchDrake/rtl-sdr-blog/blob/feature/xfer-completion/src…). Since it seems to work rather well, I though it could be interesting to submit a patch to have this fixed upstream. Thanks in advance, --
