Example code showing how the host needs to talk to the Pi can be found [here](https://github.com/raspberrypi/usbboot). The host first sends a structure to the device down control endpoint 0. This contains the size and signature for the boot (security is not enabled so no signature is required). Secondly, code is transmitted down endpoint 1 (bootcode.bin). Finally, the device will reply with a success code of:
