Description

In recent versions of osmo-remsim-client-st2, we appear to be doing an unconditional USB SET_CONFIGURATION transaction on the control endpoint. This works when opening the first interface of the device, but will fail when opening the second interface:

root@remsim-client:~# osmo-remsim-client-st2 -s 192.168.11.10 -c 23 -n1 -V 1d50 -P 4004 -C0 -I0 -S0 -H 1-1.1.2.1

Cannot set configuration: LIBUSB_ERROR_BUSY
can't open USB device

Thinking of this, this is more or less obvious. As soon as any of the interfaces of a configuration are claimed, one cannot change the configuration anymore. It can probably be argued if setting the same config that already is active is a "change", but well, it is how it is.

The remsim-client and/or libosmocore code needs to be modified to only attempt a SET_CONFIGURATION if the requested config is not already active.

This was observed with remsim-client 0.2.2.46.3598

kernel log:

[ 7051.529681] usb 1-1.1.2.1: usbfs: interface 1 claimed by usbfs while 'osmo-remsim-cli' sets config #0

Interestingly, the code in osmo_libusb_open_claim_interface() already does this:
  • get the current configuration
  • only issue a libusbb_set_configuration if the current config differs from the intended config

So either there's a bug in this libosmocore code, or the firmware is returning the wrong value during GET_CONFIGURATION, making the code believe it's not the one we want.

couldn't reproduce this with ST34 on the same board. I could use both interfaces in parallel without any trouble. Weird.

Cannot reproduce this anymore even on ST12 with current libosmocore / host tools.
