| 20 | USB is a master/slave protocol, organized with one master |
| 21 | host (such as a PC) controlling up to 127 peripheral devices. |
| 22 | The USB hardware is asymmetric, which makes it easier to set up: |
| 23 | you can't connect a "to-the-host" connector to a peripheral. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Linux can run in the host, or in the peripheral. In both cases |
| 26 | you need a low level bus controller driver, and some software |
| 27 | talking to it. Peripheral controllers are often discrete silicon, |
| 28 | or are integrated with the CPU in a microcontroller. The more |
Jules Villard | e113f29 | 2006-08-22 22:40:15 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 29 | familiar host side controllers have names like "EHCI", "OHCI", |
Linus Torvalds | 1da177e | 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 30 | or "UHCI", and are usually integrated into southbridges on PC |
| 31 | motherboards. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Enable this configuration option if you want to run Linux inside |
| 34 | a USB peripheral device. Configure one hardware driver for your |
| 35 | peripheral/device side bus controller, and a "gadget driver" for |
| 36 | your peripheral protocol. (If you use modular gadget drivers, |
| 37 | you may configure more than one.) |
| 38 | |

| 377 | A Linux "Gadget Driver" talks to the USB Peripheral Controller |
| 378 | driver through the abstract "gadget" API. Some other operating |
| 379 | systems call these "client" drivers, of which "class drivers" |
| 380 | are a subset (implementing a USB device class specification). |
| 381 | A gadget driver implements one or more USB functions using |
| 382 | the peripheral hardware. |
| 383 | |
| 384 | Gadget drivers are hardware-neutral, or "platform independent", |
| 385 | except that they sometimes must understand quirks or limitations |
| 386 | of the particular controllers they work with. For example, when |
| 387 | a controller doesn't support alternate configurations or provide |
| 388 | enough of the right types of endpoints, the gadget driver might |
| 389 | not be able work with that controller, or might need to implement |
| 390 | a less common variant of a device class protocol. |
| 391 | |
| 392 | # this first set of drivers all depend on bulk-capable hardware. |

| 396 | depends on EXPERIMENTAL |
| 397 | help |
| 398 | Gadget Zero is a two-configuration device. It either sinks and |
| 399 | sources bulk data; or it loops back a configurable number of |
| 400 | transfers. It also implements control requests, for "chapter 9" |
| 401 | conformance. The driver needs only two bulk-capable endpoints, so |
| 402 | it can work on top of most device-side usb controllers. It's |
| 403 | useful for testing, and is also a working example showing how |
| 404 | USB "gadget drivers" can be written. |
| 405 | |
| 406 | Make this be the first driver you try using on top of any new |
| 407 | USB peripheral controller driver. Then you can use host-side |
| 408 | test software, like the "usbtest" driver, to put your hardware |
| 409 | and its driver through a basic set of functional tests. |
| 410 | |
| 411 | Gadget Zero also works with the host-side "usb-skeleton" driver, |
| 412 | and with many kinds of host-side test software. You may need |
| 413 | to tweak product and vendor IDs before host software knows about |
| 414 | this device, and arrange to select an appropriate configuration. |
| 415 | |
| 416 | Say "y" to link the driver statically, or "m" to build a |
| 417 | dynamically linked module called "g_zero". |

| 421 | depends on USB_ZERO && USB_OTG |
| 422 | help |
| 423 | You can configure this device to enumerate using the device |
| 424 | identifiers of the USB-OTG test device. That means that when |
| 425 | this gadget connects to another OTG device, with this one using |
| 426 | the "B-Peripheral" role, that device will use HNP to let this |
| 427 | one serve as the USB host instead (in the "B-Host" role). |

| 430 | tristate "Ethernet Gadget (with CDC Ethernet support)" |
| 431 | depends on NET |
| 432 | help |
| 433 | This driver implements Ethernet style communication, in either |
| 434 | of two ways: |
| 435 | |
| 436 | - The "Communication Device Class" (CDC) Ethernet Control Model. |
| 437 | That protocol is often avoided with pure Ethernet adapters, in |
| 438 | favor of simpler vendor-specific hardware, but is widely |
| 439 | supported by firmware for smart network devices. |
| 440 | |
| 441 | - On hardware can't implement that protocol, a simple CDC subset |
| 442 | is used, placing fewer demands on USB. |
| 443 | |
| 444 | RNDIS support is a third option, more demanding than that subset. |
| 445 | |
| 446 | Within the USB device, this gadget driver exposes a network device |
| 447 | "usbX", where X depends on what other networking devices you have. |
| 448 | Treat it like a two-node Ethernet link: host, and gadget. |
| 449 | |
| 450 | The Linux-USB host-side "usbnet" driver interoperates with this |
| 451 | driver, so that deep I/O queues can be supported. On 2.4 kernels, |
| 452 | use "CDCEther" instead, if you're using the CDC option. That CDC |
| 453 | mode should also interoperate with standard CDC Ethernet class |
| 454 | drivers on other host operating systems. |

| 456 | Say "y" to link the driver statically, or "m" to build a |
| 457 | dynamically linked module called "g_ether". |

| 463 | help |
| 464 | Microsoft Windows XP bundles the "Remote NDIS" (RNDIS) protocol, |
| 465 | and Microsoft provides redistributable binary RNDIS drivers for |
| 466 | older versions of Windows. |
| 467 | |
| 468 | If you say "y" here, the Ethernet gadget driver will try to provide |
| 469 | a second device configuration, supporting RNDIS to talk to such |
| 470 | Microsoft USB hosts. |
| 471 | |
| 472 | To make MS-Windows work with this, use Documentation/usb/linux.inf |
| 473 | as the "driver info file". For versions of MS-Windows older than |
| 474 | XP, you'll need to download drivers from Microsoft's website; a URL |
| 475 | is given in comments found in that info file. |
