Clemens,

Thanks for your quick reply.

How is attached patch for this idea?

This quirk is applied for all of transactions to these devices. As long 
as I expeciment, their reliability roughly the same.

As long as I tested with this patch, the current number of retries (3 
times) seemd to be enough for these devices. ALSA applications can 
safely use PCM character devices.

> This patch (no. 52) does not change the CMP code.

I had no plan to touch CMP codes for this patch because just two models 
have this quirk. But now I want to add this patch into my series of patch.


Thanks

Subject: [PATCH] firewire-lib: add a fallback at RCODE_CANCELLED

I confirm that some devices often send no response against driver's
request even if the devices handle the request. In this case, drivers
should not retry the request because the devices already handled
an operation of the request.  The second request may bring errors or
make no sence.

This patch adds a flag, FW_RETURN_TIMEOUT, for snd_fw_transaction().
With this flag, this function returns -ETIMEOUT when fw_run_transaction()
returns RCODE_CALCELLED.,

For FCP, this patch modifies fcp_avc_transaction() with this flag. The
-ETIMEDOUT is handled as success.

For CMP, this patch modifies pcr_modify() with this flag. The -ETIMEOUT
generates another read transaction to check current value of PCR.
