I realize all control transfers are to be handled using a different api
ctrl_transfer and wht usbmon is showing are nothing but its parameter
values. The following call works (first time ever something worked).

  dev.ctrl_transfer(0x80, 0x06, 0x0100, 0x0000, 0x0012)

Still have some questions like this. Request list members who can help to
please help:


1. As per [1] event type 'S' and 'C' are for Submission and Callback. Does
it clearly mean 'S' is 'from host' and 'C' is 'from device'?


2. URB direction is either 'i' or 'o'. Now, what is 'o' for a host is
'i' for a device and vice versa. So the same data packet can be identified
as 'S' 'Co' as well as 'C' 'Ci'? How is it decided by usbmon then?

For example, what is the difference between following pairs of
interactions 'S' 'Ci' - 'C' 'Ci' and 'S' 'Co' - 'C' 'Co'? Isn't the sense
of communication in back to back events same in both? So how is it decided
which pair is of 'Ci' and which of 'Co'?
