+The ``k`` and ``u`` specifiers are used for printing prior probed memory from
+either kernel memory (k) or user memory (u). The subsequent ``s`` specifier
+results in printing a string. For direct use in regular vsnprintf() the (k)
+and (u) annotation is ignored, however, when used out of BPF's bpf_trace_printk(),
+for example, it reads the memory it is pointing to without faulting.

+Internal details
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Currently every endpoint read/write ioctl submits a USB request and waits until
+its completion. This is the desired mode for coverage-guided fuzzing (as we'd
+like all USB request processing happen during the lifetime of a syscall),
+and must be kept in the implementation. (This might be slow for real world
+applications, thus the O_NONBLOCK improvement suggestion below.)

Potential future improvements

-- Implement ioctl's for setting/clearing halt status on endpoints.

-- Reporting more events (suspend, resume, etc.) through
- USB_RAW_IOCTL_EVENT_FETCH.
+- Report more events (suspend, resume, etc.) through USB_RAW_IOCTL_EVENT_FETCH.
- Support O_NONBLOCK I/O.

+- Support USB 3 features (accept SS endpoint companion descriptor when
+ enabling endpoints; allow providing stream_id for bulk transfers).
+
+- Support ISO transfer features (expose frame_number for completed requests).
