| Here's a rough timeline. | Here's a rough timeline. | ||
| - | === Week 1, 2 & 3 === | + | === Week 1, 2 === |
| - | * Complete the USB protocol implementation. Software interface between layers of the USB stack is now well defined. | + | * Write a PCI driver fpr UHCI controller. Write support for control and bulk urbs. |
| - | === Week 4 & 5 === | + | === Week 3, 4=== |
| - | * Add support for UHCI host controller. | + | * Write a driver for dm9601 usb ethernet adapter. Factor out generic USB networking code out of dm9601 and write a pegasus usbnet driver. |
| - | === Week 6 & 7 === | + | === Week 5 & 6 === |
| - | * Implement the generic USB NIC driver. Write a minidriver for dm9601 (Davicom USB Ethernet Adapter 9601). | + | * Clean up and sanitize the uhci source. This includes proper lifecycle management of urbs and correct error handling across all control paths. |
| - | === Week 8 and hence === | + | === Week 7, 8 & 9 === |
| + | * Write a PCI driver for EHCI controller along with schedule management code. | ||
| - | * Implement EHCI controller support, mini drivers for more NICs. Testing and performance optimization of the USB stack. | + | === Week 10 and hence === |
| + | * Debugging, optimization etc. | ||
