Hi Hans,

I have decided to try your new usb stack. I am running on FreeBSD 6.1. The device I am trying to get
working is a sierra wireless usb 597 EVDO modem. It is also has a slot for a micro-sd memory card, plus
when it is first powered up it doesn't look like a modem it looks like a different device that has both the 
umass device plus a cdrom device that has windows software drivers on it. In this mode it has a VID of 0x1199 and
a PID of 0xfff, after a message on the control pipe it changes its identity to VID = 0x1199, PID=0x0023.

What I had done previously with the original 6.1 usba.c was in the match code look for the 1199:fff and then
in the attach code send a message on the control pipe to set it in modem mode like the code below:
  {
        ubsa_cfg_request( sc, 0x0b, 1);
        ucom->sc_dying = 1;
                goto error;
   } 

I tried to do something similar in the usba.c that is part of your new code as follows:
  {
        ubsa_cfg_request( sc, 0x0b, 1);
                goto detach;
   } 

but I immediately get a panic:
Fatal trap 12 page fault in kernel mode
...
Stopped at usbd_config_td_is_gone
bt gives:
ucom_cfg_is_gone
ubsa_cfg_request
ubsa_attach
...

Which looks like it doesn't like the device disappearing when it switched modes.
 Any ideas how this should be handled? Or where I should be trying to switch the
device into modem mode?

Thanks,
Steve
