3 # (a) a peripheral controller, and
4 # (b) the gadget driver using it.
6 # NOTE: Gadget support ** DOES NOT ** depend on host-side CONFIG_USB !!
8 # - Host systems (like PCs) need CONFIG_USB (with "A" jacks).
9 # - Peripherals (like PDAs) need CONFIG_USB_GADGET (with "B" jacks).
10 # - Some systems have both kinds of controllers.
12 # With help from a special transceiver and a "Mini-AB" jack, systems with
13 # both kinds of controller can also support "USB On-the-Go" (CONFIG_USB_OTG).

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.
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 "EHCI", "OHCI",
30 or "UHCI", and are usually integrated into southbridges on PC
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.)
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).

43 the kernel DocBook documentation for this API.

49 Many controller and gadget drivers will print some debugging
50 messages if you use this option to ask for those messages.
52 Avoid enabling these messages, even if you're actively
53 debugging such a driver. Many drivers will emit so many
54 messages that the driver timings are affected, which will
55 either create new failure modes or remove the one you're
56 trying to track down. Never enable these messages for a

65 (for a peripheral controller). The information in these
66 files may help when you're troubleshooting or bringing up a
67 driver on a new board. Enable these files by choosing "Y"

306 select USB_GADGET_DUALSPEED
308 This host controller driver emulates USB, looping all data transfer
309 requests back to a USB "gadget driver" in the same host. The host
310 side is the master; the gadget side is the slave. Gadget drivers
311 can be high, full, or low speed; and they have access to endpoints
312 like those from NET2280, PXA2xx, or SA1100 hardware.
314 This may help in some stages of creating a driver to embed in a
315 Linux device, since it lets you debug several parts of the gadget
316 driver without its hardware or drivers being involved.
318 Since such a gadget side driver needs to interoperate with a host
319 side Linux-USB device driver, this may help to debug both sides
320 of a USB protocol stack.

349 tristate "USB Gadget Drivers"
350 depends on USB_GADGET && USB_GADGET_SELECTED
353 A Linux "Gadget Driver" talks to the USB Peripheral Controller
354 driver through the abstract "gadget" API. Some other operating
355 systems call these "client" drivers, of which "class drivers"
356 are a subset (implementing a USB device class specification).
357 A gadget driver implements one or more USB functions using
358 the peripheral hardware.
360 Gadget drivers are hardware-neutral, or "platform independent",
361 except that they sometimes must understand quirks or limitations
362 of the particular controllers they work with. For example, when
363 a controller doesn't support alternate configurations or provide
364 enough of the right types of endpoints, the gadget driver might
365 not be able work with that controller, or might need to implement
366 a less common variant of a device class protocol.
368 # this first set of drivers all depend on bulk-capable hardware.
371 tristate "Gadget Zero (DEVELOPMENT)"
372 depends on EXPERIMENTAL
374 Gadget Zero is a two-configuration device. It either sinks and
375 sources bulk data; or it loops back a configurable number of
376 transfers. It also implements control requests, for "chapter 9"
377 conformance. The driver needs only two bulk-capable endpoints, so
378 it can work on top of most device-side usb controllers. It's
379 useful for testing, and is also a working example showing how
380 USB "gadget drivers" can be written.
382 Make this be the first driver you try using on top of any new
383 USB peripheral controller driver. Then you can use host-side
384 test software, like the "usbtest" driver, to put your hardware
385 and its driver through a basic set of functional tests.
387 Gadget Zero also works with the host-side "usb-skeleton" driver,
388 and with many kinds of host-side test software. You may need
389 to tweak product and vendor IDs before host software knows about
390 this device, and arrange to select an appropriate configuration.
392 Say "y" to link the driver statically, or "m" to build a
393 dynamically linked module called "g_zero".
395 config USB_ZERO_HNPTEST
396 boolean "HNP Test Device"
397 depends on USB_ZERO && USB_OTG
399 You can configure this device to enumerate using the device
400 identifiers of the USB-OTG test device. That means that when
401 this gadget connects to another OTG device, with this one using
402 the "B-Peripheral" role, that device will use HNP to let this
403 one serve as the USB host instead (in the "B-Host" role).
406 tristate "Ethernet Gadget (with CDC Ethernet support)"
409 This driver implements Ethernet style communication, in either
412 - The "Communication Device Class" (CDC) Ethernet Control Model.
413 That protocol is often avoided with pure Ethernet adapters, in
414 favor of simpler vendor-specific hardware, but is widely
415 supported by firmware for smart network devices.
417 - On hardware can't implement that protocol, a simple CDC subset
418 is used, placing fewer demands on USB.
420 RNDIS support is a third option, more demanding than that subset.
422 Within the USB device, this gadget driver exposes a network device
423 "usbX", where X depends on what other networking devices you have.
424 Treat it like a two-node Ethernet link: host, and gadget.
426 The Linux-USB host-side "usbnet" driver interoperates with this
427 driver, so that deep I/O queues can be supported. On 2.4 kernels,
428 use "CDCEther" instead, if you're using the CDC option. That CDC
429 mode should also interoperate with standard CDC Ethernet class
430 drivers on other host operating systems.

433 dynamically linked module called "g_ether".
