+
+Each connected USB device has one file.  The ``BBB`` indicates the bus
+number.  The ``DDD`` indicates the device address on that bus.  Both
+of these numbers are assigned sequentially, and can be reused, so
+you can't rely on them for stable access to devices.  For example,
+it's relatively common for devices to re-enumerate while they are
+still connected (perhaps someone jostled their power supply, hub,
+or USB cable), so a device might be ``002/027`` when you first connect
+it and ``002/048`` sometime later.
+
+These files can be read as binary data.  The binary data consists
+of first the device descriptor, then the descriptors for each
+configuration of the device.  Multi-byte fields in the device descriptor
+are converted to host endianness by the kernel.  The configuration
+descriptors are in bus endian format! The configuration descriptor
+are wTotalLength bytes apart. If a device returns less configuration
+descriptor data than indicated by wTotalLength there will be a hole in
+the file for the missing bytes.  This information is also shown
+in text form by the ``/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices`` file, described later.
+
+These files may also be used to write user-level drivers for the USB
+devices.  You would open the ``/dev/bus/usb/BBB/DDD`` file read/write,
+read its descriptors to make sure it's the device you expect, and then
+bind to an interface (or perhaps several) using an ioctl call.  You
+would issue more ioctls to the device to communicate to it using
+control, bulk, or other kinds of USB transfers.  The IOCTLs are
+listed in the ``<linux/usbdevice_fs.h>`` file, and at this writing the
+source code (``linux/drivers/usb/core/devio.c``) is the primary reference
+for how to access devices through those files.
+
+Note that since by default these ``BBB/DDD`` files are writable only by
+root, only root can write such user mode drivers.  You can selectively
+grant read/write permissions to other users by using ``chmod``.  Also,
+usbfs mount options such as ``devmode=0666`` may be helpful.

+have only one configuration.
+
+Each configuration consists of one or more interfaces.  Each

+
+A given interface may have one or more "alternate" settings.
+For example, default settings may not use more than a small
+amount of periodic bandwidth.  To use significant fractions
+of bus bandwidth, drivers must select a non-default altsetting.
+
+Only one setting for an interface may be active at a time, and
+only one driver may bind to an interface at a time.  Most devices
+have only one alternate setting per interface.

+
+The interval is nonzero for all periodic (interrupt or isochronous)
+endpoints.  For high speed endpoints the transfer interval may be
+measured in microseconds rather than milliseconds.
+
+For high speed periodic endpoints, the ``EndpointMaxPacketSize`` reflects
+the per-microframe data transfer size.  For "high bandwidth"
+endpoints, that can reflect two or three packets (for up to
+3KBytes every 125 usec) per endpoint.
+
+With the Linux-USB stack, periodic bandwidth reservations use the
+transfer intervals and sizes provided by URBs, which can be less
+than those found in endpoint descriptor.
+
+Usage examples
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If a user or script is interested only in Topology info, for
+example, use something like ``grep ^T: /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices``
+for only the Topology lines.  A command like
+``grep -i ^[tdp]: /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices`` can be used to list
+only the lines that begin with the characters in square brackets,
+where the valid characters are TDPCIE.  With a slightly more able
+script, it can display any selected lines (for example, only T, D,
+and P lines) and change their output format.  (The ``procusb``
+Perl script is the beginning of this idea.  It will list only
+selected lines [selected from TBDPSCIE] or "All" lines from
+``/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices``.)
+
+The Topology lines can be used to generate a graphic/pictorial
+of the USB devices on a system's root hub.  (See more below
+on how to do this.)
+
+The Interface lines can be used to determine what driver is
+being used for each device, and which altsetting it activated.
+
+The Configuration lines could be used to list maximum power
+(in milliamps) that a system's USB devices are using.
+For example, ``grep ^C: /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices``.
+
+
+Here's an example, from a system which has a UHCI root hub,

-/proc/bus/usb filesystem output
-===============================
-(version 2010.09.13)
-
-
-The usbfs filesystem for USB devices is traditionally mounted at
-/proc/bus/usb.  It provides the /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file, as well as
-the /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD files.
-
-In many modern systems the usbfs filesystem isn't used at all.  Instead
-USB device nodes are created under /dev/usb/ or someplace similar.  The
-"devices" file is available in debugfs, typically as
-/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices.
-
-
-**NOTE**: If /proc/bus/usb appears empty, and a host controller
-          driver has been linked, then you need to mount the
-          filesystem.  Issue the command (as root):
-
-      mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb
-
-          An alternative and more permanent method would be to add
-
-      none  /proc/bus/usb  usbfs  defaults  0  0
-
-          to /etc/fstab.  This will mount usbfs at each reboot.
-          You can then issue `cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices` to extract
-          USB device information, and user mode drivers can use usbfs
-          to interact with USB devices.
-
-          There are a number of mount options supported by usbfs.
-          Consult the source code (linux/drivers/usb/core/inode.c) for
-          information about those options.
-
-**NOTE**: The filesystem has been renamed from "usbdevfs" to
-          "usbfs", to reduce confusion with "devfs".  You may
-          still see references to the older "usbdevfs" name.
-
-For more information on mounting the usbfs file system, see the
-"USB Device Filesystem" section of the USB Guide. The latest copy
-of the USB Guide can be found at http://www.linux-usb.org/
-
-
-THE /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD FILES:
---------------------------------
-Each connected USB device has one file.  The BBB indicates the bus
-number.  The DDD indicates the device address on that bus.  Both
-of these numbers are assigned sequentially, and can be reused, so
-you can't rely on them for stable access to devices.  For example,
-it's relatively common for devices to re-enumerate while they are
-still connected (perhaps someone jostled their power supply, hub,
-or USB cable), so a device might be 002/027 when you first connect
-it and 002/048 sometime later.
-
-These files can be read as binary data.  The binary data consists
-of first the device descriptor, then the descriptors for each
-configuration of the device.  Multi-byte fields in the device descriptor
-are converted to host endianness by the kernel.  The configuration
-descriptors are in bus endian format! The configuration descriptor
-are wTotalLength bytes apart. If a device returns less configuration
-descriptor data than indicated by wTotalLength there will be a hole in
-the file for the missing bytes.  This information is also shown
-in text form by the /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file, described later.
-
-These files may also be used to write user-level drivers for the USB
-devices.  You would open the /proc/bus/usb/BBB/DDD file read/write,
-read its descriptors to make sure it's the device you expect, and then
-bind to an interface (or perhaps several) using an ioctl call.  You
-would issue more ioctls to the device to communicate to it using
-control, bulk, or other kinds of USB transfers.  The IOCTLs are
-listed in the <linux/usbdevice_fs.h> file, and at this writing the
-source code (linux/drivers/usb/core/devio.c) is the primary reference
-for how to access devices through those files.
-
-Note that since by default these BBB/DDD files are writable only by
-root, only root can write such user mode drivers.  You can selectively
-grant read/write permissions to other users by using "chmod".  Also,
-usbfs mount options such as "devmode=0666" may be helpful.
-
-
-
-THE /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices FILE:
--------------------------------
-In /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices, each device's output has multiple
-lines of ASCII output.
-I made it ASCII instead of binary on purpose, so that someone
-can obtain some useful data from it without the use of an
-auxiliary program.  However, with an auxiliary program, the numbers
-in the first 4 columns of each "T:" line (topology info:
-Lev, Prnt, Port, Cnt) can be used to build a USB topology diagram.
-
-Each line is tagged with a one-character ID for that line:
-
-T = Topology (etc.)
-B = Bandwidth (applies only to USB host controllers, which are
-    virtualized as root hubs)
-D = Device descriptor info.
-P = Product ID info. (from Device descriptor, but they won't fit
-    together on one line)
-S = String descriptors.
-C = Configuration descriptor info. (* = active configuration)
-I = Interface descriptor info.
-E = Endpoint descriptor info.

-
-    Speed may be:
-        1.5     Mbit/s for low speed USB
-        12      Mbit/s for full speed USB
-        480     Mbit/s for high speed USB (added for USB 2.0);
-                  also used for Wireless USB, which has no fixed speed
-        5000    Mbit/s for SuperSpeed USB (added for USB 3.0)
-
-    For reasons lost in the mists of time, the Port number is always
-    too low by 1.  For example, a device plugged into port 4 will
-    show up with "Port=03".

-|   |__Total Bandwidth allocated to this bus
-|__Bandwidth info tag
-
-    Bandwidth allocation is an approximation of how much of one frame
-    (millisecond) is in use.  It reflects only periodic transfers, which
-    are the only transfers that reserve bandwidth.  Control and bulk
-    transfers use all other bandwidth, including reserved bandwidth that
-    is not used for transfers (such as for short packets).
-
-    The percentage is how much of the "reserved" bandwidth is scheduled by
-    those transfers.  For a low or full speed bus (loosely, "USB 1.1"),
-    90% of the bus bandwidth is reserved.  For a high speed bus (loosely,
-    "USB 2.0") 80% is reserved.

-| | |__NumberOfInterfaces
-| |__ "*" indicates the active configuration (others are " ")
-|__Config info tag
-
-    USB devices may have multiple configurations, each of which act
-    rather differently.  For example, a bus-powered configuration
-    might be much less capable than one that is self-powered.  Only
-    one device configuration can be active at a time; most devices
-    have only one configuration.
-
-    Each configuration consists of one or more interfaces.  Each
-    interface serves a distinct "function", which is typically bound
-    to a different USB device driver.  One common example is a USB
-    speaker with an audio interface for playback, and a HID interface
-    for use with software volume control.
-
-
-Interface descriptor info (can be multiple per Config):
-

-| | |      |__AlternateSettingNumber
-| | |__InterfaceNumber
-| |__ "*" indicates the active altsetting (others are " ")
-|__Interface info tag
-
-    A given interface may have one or more "alternate" settings.
-    For example, default settings may not use more than a small
-    amount of periodic bandwidth.  To use significant fractions
-    of bus bandwidth, drivers must select a non-default altsetting.
-
-    Only one setting for an interface may be active at a time, and
-    only one driver may bind to an interface at a time.  Most devices
-    have only one alternate setting per interface.
-
-
-Endpoint descriptor info (can be multiple per Interface):
-
-E:  Ad=xx(s) Atr=xx(ssss) MxPS=dddd Ivl=dddss
-|   |        |            |         |__Interval (max) between transfers
-|   |        |            |__EndpointMaxPacketSize
-|   |        |__Attributes(EndpointType)
-|   |__EndpointAddress(I=In,O=Out)
-|__Endpoint info tag
-
-    The interval is nonzero for all periodic (interrupt or isochronous)
-    endpoints.  For high speed endpoints the transfer interval may be
-    measured in microseconds rather than milliseconds.
-
-    For high speed periodic endpoints, the "MaxPacketSize" reflects
-    the per-microframe data transfer size.  For "high bandwidth"
-    endpoints, that can reflect two or three packets (for up to
-    3KBytes every 125 usec) per endpoint.
-
-    With the Linux-USB stack, periodic bandwidth reservations use the
-    transfer intervals and sizes provided by URBs, which can be less
-    than those found in endpoint descriptor.
-
-
-=======================================================================
-
-
-If a user or script is interested only in Topology info, for
-example, use something like "grep ^T: /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices"
-for only the Topology lines.  A command like
-"grep -i ^[tdp]: /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices" can be used to list
-only the lines that begin with the characters in square brackets,
-where the valid characters are TDPCIE.  With a slightly more able
-script, it can display any selected lines (for example, only T, D,
-and P lines) and change their output format.  (The "procusb"
-Perl script is the beginning of this idea.  It will list only
-selected lines [selected from TBDPSCIE] or "All" lines from
-/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices.)
-
-The Topology lines can be used to generate a graphic/pictorial
-of the USB devices on a system's root hub.  (See more below
-on how to do this.)
-
-The Interface lines can be used to determine what driver is
-being used for each device, and which altsetting it activated.
-
-The Configuration lines could be used to list maximum power
-(in milliamps) that a system's USB devices are using.
-For example, "grep ^C: /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices".
-
-
-Here's an example, from a system which has a UHCI root hub,
-an external hub connected to the root hub, and a mouse and
-a serial converter connected to the external hub.
