The default so far was 0, which meant there would be no significant
digits at all, yielding results that looked strange/wrong to the user.
Long-term all remaining drivers should be fixed to use the actual,
correct digits and spec_digits values according to the device's
capabilities and/or datasheet/manual. Until that is done, a default
of digits=2 is used as a temporary workaround.
This fixes the remaining parts of bug #815.
Here's a patch to "Ignore requests to set coupling for the Hantek 6022BE",
this clears the LIBUSB errors for me.
Also in the patch:
- There is a crash because config_list() can be called with sdi == NULL.
This can be reproduced by doing:
"sigrok-cli.exe --driver hantek-6xxx --show"
- There seems to be a very unsafe loop in config_set() when setting COUPLING;
the coupling vector is assumed to be zero terminated, but is not declared
as such.
Note: The same issue is present also for other hardware, at least for
hantek-dso/api.c. The patch is only for hantek-6xxx though.
There were issues when using non-power-of-two data sizes with e.g.
the Hantek 6022BE device. For example, on Windows the acquisition would
simply hang and never complete:
hantek-6xxx: receive_transfer(): status LIBUSB_TRANSFER_ERROR received 0 bytes
The issue was reported by Erik Montnemery on the mailing list, the
original patch was posted by "mmark" here (thanks!):

The issue has been verified by me on Windows and Linux, and also that
this change does indeed fix it (tested Hantek 6022BE and Sainsmart DDS120).
Neither PulseView nor sigrok-cli hang anymore on Windows, and on Linux
the log messages suggest improvements as well:
-hantek-6xxx: data_amount 712
+hantek-6xxx: data_amount: 200 (rounded to power of 2: 512)
-hantek-6xxx: receive_transfer(): calculated samplerate == 2327ks/s
-hantek-6xxx: receive_transfer(): status LIBUSB_TRANSFER_OVERFLOW received 512 bytes.
+hantek-6xxx: receive_transfer(): calculated samplerate == 1969ks/s
+hantek-6xxx: receive_transfer(): status LIBUSB_SUCCESS / LIBUSB_TRANSFER_COMPLETED received 512 bytes.
This fixes bug #821.
