This driver was not sending device clear or trigger events when the
board entered the DCAS or DTAS state respectively in device mode.
DCAS is the Device Clear Active State which is entered on receiving a
selective device clear message (SDC) or universal device clear message
(DCL) from the controller in charge.
DTAS is the Device Trigger Active State which is entered on receiving
a group execute trigger (GET) message from the controller.
In order for an application, implementing a particular device, to
detect when one of these states is entered the driver needs to send
the appropriate event.
Send the appropriate gpib_event when DCAS or DTAS is set in the
reported status word. This sets the DCAS or DTAS bits in the board's
status word which can be monitored by the application.
Fixes: 4e127de14f ("staging: gpib: Add National Instruments USB GPIB driver")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
