100 This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
101 with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
102 that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
103 better performance with small packets and at high speeds).

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700105 The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
106
107 - Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
108 cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
109 "Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
110 on specialized chips from many suppliers.
111
112 - An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
113 These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
114 others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
115 CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
116
117 - Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
118 uses this driver framework.
119
120 The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
121 a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
122 two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
123 (CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
