Hi Charles,

Please can you clarify more the adaptive EP IN scenario? I am aware that 
the f_uac2.c also allows defining c_sync type (that's what your patch is 
based on).

IIUC the data production rate of adaptive source endpoint (i.e. EP IN) 
is controlled by feed forward messages from the host
Quoting http://sdpha2.ucsd.edu/Lab_Equip_Manuals/usb_20.pdf page 73:

"Adaptive source endpoints produce data at a rate that is controlled by 
the data sink. The sink provides feedback (refer to Section 5.12.4.2) to 
the source, which allows the source to know the desired data rate of the 
sink."

While the current f_uac2 implementation generates feedback for EP OUT 
async (unlike f_uac1), I cannot find any support for incoming 
feed-forward messages from the host for EP IN adaptive case. Neither in 
f_uac1, of course.

I am not sure if linux supports IN EP adaptive, but the MS UAC2 driver 
does not 
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/audio/usb-2-0-audio-drivers#audio-streaming:

"For the Adaptive IN case the driver doesn't support a feed forward 
endpoint. If such an endpoint is present in the alternate setting, it 
will be ignored. The driver handles the Adaptive IN stream in the same 
way as an Asynchronous IN stream."

IIUC (and I may be wrong) all the c_sync param does in f_uac2 (and 
f_uac1 in your patch) is just changing the EP IN configuration flag, but 
the actual support for truly adaptive EP IN is not implemented. IMO 
there is no code which would accept the feed-forward message from the 
host and adjust the rate at which samples are consumed from the alsa 
buffer to EP IN packets (method u_audio_iso_complete 
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/usb/gadget/function/u_audio.c#L193 
)

That pertains a bit to the first sentence of your patch - IMO it 
describes EP OUT async, but not EP IN adaptive.

Thanks a lot for a bit of clarification.

Pavel.
