Hi I am constantly getting following error : Error Opening SMBusb: libusb error -11 both for smbusb_sbsreport and smbusb_scan

Device is enumerated as Bus 001 Device 006: ID 04b4:8613 Cypress Semiconductor Corp. CY7C68013 EZ-USB FX2 USB 2.0 Development Kit

Any assistance is appreciated

If you are working in Linux check permissions. Same issue was solved here.

Tried sigrok on same VM - all works like a charm

tremez commented 4 years ago

error -11 sound like LIBUSB_ERROR_NO_MEM

Ok, I won it Problem was due to virtual box usb settings, i had to select USB3 instead USB2. Hope it helps for the future

Good to know!

Meanwhile have looked through the code and noticed error -11 in that particular case means error downloading firmware to device and not the LIBUSB_ERROR_NO_MEM. It comes from InitDevice() function and defined in libsmbusb.h header,

#define ERR_FIRMWARE_DOWNLOAD -11

@karosium Could we redefine it to something unique to avoid confusion?

@tremez: Glad you could get it to work

@0r10nV: I'll look into this when I have some free time. I've been meaning to add human-readable error messages since the release.
