[Nut-upsdev] Developing the UPS side of the UPS-NUT equation (via usbhid)

[Rob Groner]

Hmm...well, after it gets the report descriptor, NUT then gets each of the reports defined in there, so that's good.  But after that, there are no more messages (no more reports being requested...the NUT debug info just shows "libusb_get_interrupt: Connection timed out" repeatedly).  I put in some enticing values into the report descriptor, like shutdownimminent and discharging and charging, hoping that would get NUT interested enough to ask for those status, but not so far.  I'm missing something obvious.  I'm going to dig into NUT to see if I can find where it decides what reports to get during the "Quick update".

That sounds vaguely familiar, but I think NUT will still poll the interrupt pipe if present. The requests over EP0 are probably only made if there are HID usage paths mapped to NUT variable names.
