of these functions to compile in.
- Assembler module delivers receive data non-inverted now.
- Made register and bit names compatible with more AVR devices.
+
+2005-05-03:
+ - Allow address of usbRxBuf on any memory page as long as the buffer does
+ not cross 256 byte page boundaries.
+ - Better device compatibility: works with Mega88 now.
+ - Code optimization in debugging module.
+ - Documentation updates.
+
+2006-01-02:
+ - Added (free) default Vendor- and Product-IDs bought from voti.nl.
+ - Added USBID-License.txt file which defines the rules for using the free
+ shared VID/PID pair.
+ - Added Readme.txt to the usbdrv directory which clarifies administrative
+ issues.
+
+2006-01-25:
+ - Added "configured state" to become more standards compliant.
+ - Added "HALT" state for interrupt endpoint.
+ - Driver passes the "USB Command Verifier" test from usb.org now.
+ - Made "serial number" a configuration option.
+ - Minor optimizations, we now recommend compiler option "-Os" for best
+ results.
+ - Added a version number to usbdrv.h
+
+2006-02-03:
+ - New configuration variable USB_BUFFER_SECTION for the memory section where
+ the USB rx buffer will go. This defaults to ".bss" if not defined. Since
+ this buffer MUST NOT cross 256 byte pages (not even touch a page at the
+ end), the user may want to pass a linker option similar to
+ "-Wl,--section-start=.mybuffer=0x800060".
+ - Provide structure for usbRequest_t.
+ - New defines for USB constants.
+ - Prepared for HID implementations.
+ - Increased data size limit for interrupt transfers to 8 bytes.
+ - New macro usbInterruptIsReady() to query interrupt buffer state.
+
+2006-02-18:
+ - Ensure that the data token which is sent as an ack to an OUT transfer is
+ always zero sized. This fixes a bug where the host reports an error after
+ sending an out transfer to the device, although all data arrived at the
+ device.
+ - Updated docs in usbdrv.h to reflect changed API in usbFunctionWrite().
+
+* Release 2006-02-20
+
+ - Give a compiler warning when compiling with debugging turned on.
+ - Added Oleg Semyonov's changes for IAR-cc compatibility.
+ - Added new (optional) functions usbDeviceConnect() and usbDeviceDisconnect()
+ (also thanks to Oleg!).
+ - Rearranged tests in usbPoll() to save a couple of instructions in the most
+ likely case that no actions are pending.
+ - We need a delay between the SET ADDRESS request until the new address
+ becomes active. This delay was handled in usbPoll() until now. Since the
+ spec says that the delay must not exceed 2ms, previous versions required
+ aggressive polling during the enumeration phase. We have now moved the
+ handling of the delay into the interrupt routine.
+ - We must not reply with NAK to a SETUP transaction. We can only achieve this
+ by making sure that the rx buffer is empty when SETUP tokens are expected.
+ We therefore don't pass zero sized data packets from the status phase of
+ a transfer to usbPoll(). This change MAY cause troubles if you rely on
+ receiving a less than 8 bytes long packet in usbFunctionWrite() to
+ identify the end of a transfer. usbFunctionWrite() will NEVER be called
+ with a zero length.
+
+* Release 2006-03-14
+
+ - Improved IAR C support: tiny memory model, more devices
+ - Added template usbconfig.h file under the name usbconfig-prototype.h
+
+* Release 2006-03-26
+
+ - Added provision for one more interrupt-in endpoint (endpoint 3).
+ - Added provision for one interrupt-out endpoint (endpoint 1).
+ - Added flowcontrol macros for USB.
+ - Added provision for custom configuration descriptor.
+ - Allow ANY two port bits for D+ and D-.
+ - Merged (optional) receive endpoint number into global usbRxToken variable.
+ - Use USB_CFG_IOPORTNAME instead of USB_CFG_IOPORT. We now construct the
+ variable name from the single port letter instead of computing the address
+ of related ports from the output-port address.
+
+* Release 2006-06-26
+
+ - Updated documentation in usbdrv.h and usbconfig-prototype.h to reflect the
+ new features.
+ - Removed "#warning" directives because IAR does not understand them. Use
+ unused static variables instead to generate a warning.
+ - Do not include <avr/io.h> when compiling with IAR.
+ - Introduced USB_CFG_DESCR_PROPS_* in usbconfig.h to configure how each
+ USB descriptor should be handled. It is now possible to provide descriptor
+ data in Flash, RAM or dynamically at runtime.
+ - STALL is now a status in usbTxLen* instead of a message. We can now conform
+ to the spec and leave the stall status pending until it is cleared.
+ - Made usbTxPacketCnt1 and usbTxPacketCnt3 public. This allows the
+ application code to reset data toggling on interrupt pipes.
+
+* Release 2006-07-18
