From 1086edaeaeddea32db2eec9d9abb95a8d7d734c6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Fr=C3=A9d=C3=A9ric=20Desbiens?= Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2026 09:02:47 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Flagged four USBX functions as deprecated - ux_device_stack_interface_get: renamed to ux_device_stack_alternate_setting_get; added #pragma message. - ux_utility_string_length_get: no upper bound on scan; can overread non-NUL-terminated buffers; added #pragma message directing callers to ux_utility_string_length_check(). - ux_utility_memory_free_block_best_get: already compiled out (#if 0); updated description to clarify it is dead code. - ux_host_class_asix_reception_callback: ASIX driver redesigned; callback no longer invoked; updated description accordingly.
