| This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB, |
| with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core |
| that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives |
| better performance with small packets and at high speeds). |
| |
| The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be: |
| |
| - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer" |
| cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like |
| "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely |
| on specialized chips from many suppliers. |
| |
| - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system. |
| These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and |
| others), and devices that interoperate using the standard |
| CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems). |
| |
| - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which |
| uses this driver framework. |
| |
| The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is |
| a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those |
| two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging |
| (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing. |

| help |
| This option adds support for ASIX AX88xxx based USB 2.0 |
| 10/100 Ethernet adapters. |
| |
| This driver should work with at least the following devices: |
| * Aten UC210T |
| * ASIX AX88172 |
| * Billionton Systems, USB2AR |
| * Buffalo LUA-U2-KTX |
| * Corega FEther USB2-TX |

| * Netgear FA120 |
| * Sitecom LN-029 |
| * Intellinet USB 2.0 Ethernet |

| config USB_NET_CDCETHER |
| tristate "CDC Ethernet support (smart devices such as cable modems)" |
| depends on USB_USBNET |
| default y |
| help |
| This option supports devices conforming to the Communication Device |
| Class (CDC) Ethernet Control Model, a specification that's easy to |
| implement in device firmware. The CDC specifications are available |
| from <http://www.usb.org/>. |
| |
| CDC Ethernet is an implementation option for DOCSIS cable modems |
| that support USB connectivity, used for non-Microsoft USB hosts. |
| The Linux-USB CDC Ethernet Gadget driver is an open implementation. |
| This driver should work with at least the following devices: |
| |
| * Ericsson PipeRider (all variants) |
| * Motorola (DM100 and SB4100) |
| * Broadcom Cable Modem (reference design) |
| * Toshiba PCX1100U |
| * ... |
| |
| This driver creates an interface named "ethX", where X depends on |
| what other networking devices you have in use. However, if the |
| IEEE 802 "local assignment" bit is set in the address, a "usbX" |
| name is used instead. |

| select USB_NET_CDCETHER |
| help |
| This option enables hosting "Remote NDIS" USB networking links, |
| as encouraged by Microsoft (instead of CDC Ethernet!) for use in |
| various devices that may only support this protocol. |
| |
| Avoid using this protocol unless you have no better options. |
| The protocol specification is incomplete, and is controlled by |
| (and for) Microsoft; it isn't an "Open" ecosystem or market. |

| depends on USB_USBNET |
| help |
| This driver module supports USB network devices that can work |
| without any device-specific information. Select it if you have |
| one of these drivers. |
| |
| Note that while many USB host-to-host cables can work in this mode, |
| that may mean not being able to talk to Win32 systems or more |
| commonly not being able to handle certain events (like replugging |
| the host on the other end) very well. Also, these devices will |
| not generally have permanently assigned Ethernet addresses. |

| config USB_ARMLINUX |
| boolean "Embedded ARM Linux links (iPaq, ...)" |
| depends on USB_NET_CDC_SUBSET |
| default y |
| help |
| Choose this option to support the "usb-eth" networking driver |
| used by most of the ARM Linux community with device controllers |
| such as the SA-11x0 and PXA-25x UDCs, or the tftp capabilities |
| in some PXA versions of the "blob" boot loader. |
| |
| Linux-based "Gumstix" PXA-25x based systems use this protocol |
| to talk with other Linux systems. |
| |
| Although the ROMs shipped with Sharp Zaurus products use a |
| different link level framing protocol, you can have them use |
| this simpler protocol by installing a different kernel. |
| |
| config USB_EPSON2888 |
| boolean "Epson 2888 based firmware (DEVELOPMENT)" |

| depends on USB_USBNET |
| select USB_NET_CDCETHER |
| select CRC32 |
| default y |
| help |
| Choose this option to support the usb networking links used by |
| Zaurus models like the SL-5000D, SL-5500, SL-5600, A-300, B-500. |
| This also supports some related device firmware, as used in some |
| PDAs from Olympus and some cell phones from Motorola. |
| |
| If you install an alternate image, such as the Linux 2.6 based |
| versions of OpenZaurus, you should no longer need to support this |
| protocol. Only the "eth-fd" or "net_fd" drivers in these devices |
| really need this non-conformant variant of CDC Ethernet (or in |
| some cases CDC MDLM) protocol, not "g_ether". |
