6 # NOTE: Gadget support ** DOES NOT ** depend on host-side CONFIG_USB !!
7 #
8 # - Host systems (like PCs) need CONFIG_USB (with "A" jacks).

10 # - Some systems have both kinds of of controller.

12 # With help from a special transceiver and a "Mini-AB" jack, systems with

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
29 familiar host side controllers have names like like "EHCI", "OHCI",
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
39 If in doubt, say "N" and don't enable these drivers; most people
40 don't have this kind of hardware (except maybe inside Linux PDAs).

230 default USB_ETH
231 help
232 A Linux "Gadget Driver" talks to the USB Peripheral Controller
233 driver through the abstract "gadget" API. Some other operating
234 systems call these "client" drivers, of which "class drivers"
235 are a subset (implementing a USB device class specification).
236 A gadget driver implements one or more USB functions using
237 the peripheral hardware.
238
239 Gadget drivers are hardware-neutral, or "platform independent",
240 except that they sometimes must understand quirks or limitations
241 of the particular controllers they work with. For example, when
242 a controller doesn't support alternate configurations or provide
243 enough of the right types of endpoints, the gadget driver might
244 not be able work with that controller, or might need to implement
245 a less common variant of a device class protocol.

253 Gadget Zero is a two-configuration device. It either sinks and
254 sources bulk data; or it loops back a configurable number of
255 transfers. It also implements control requests, for "chapter 9"
256 conformance. The driver needs only two bulk-capable endpoints, so
257 it can work on top of most device-side usb controllers. It's
258 useful for testing, and is also a working example showing how
259 USB "gadget drivers" can be written.
260
261 Make this be the first driver you try using on top of any new
262 USB peripheral controller driver. Then you can use host-side
263 test software, like the "usbtest" driver, to put your hardware
264 and its driver through a basic set of functional tests.
265
266 Gadget Zero also works with the host-side "usb-skeleton" driver,
267 and with many kinds of host-side test software. You may need
268 to tweak product and vendor IDs before host software knows about
269 this device, and arrange to select an appropriate configuration.

288 This driver implements Ethernet style communication, in either

291 - The "Communication Device Class" (CDC) Ethernet Control Model.
292 That protocol is often avoided with pure Ethernet adapters, in
293 favor of simpler vendor-specific hardware, but is widely
294 supported by firmware for smart network devices.
295
296 - On hardware can't implement that protocol, a simple CDC subset
297 is used, placing fewer demands on USB.
298
299 RNDIS support is a third option, more demanding than that subset.

301 Within the USB device, this gadget driver exposes a network device
302 "usbX", where X depends on what other networking devices you have.
303 Treat it like a two-node Ethernet link: host, and gadget.

305 The Linux-USB host-side "usbnet" driver interoperates with this
306 driver, so that deep I/O queues can be supported. On 2.4 kernels,

308 mode should also interoperate with standard CDC Ethernet class
