| 6 | Various files for managing Cable Based Association of | ||
| 7 | (wireless) USB devices. | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | The sequence of operations should be: | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | 1. Device is plugged in. | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | 2. The connection manager (CM) sees a device with CBA capability. | ||
| 14 | (the wusb_chid etc. files in /sys/devices/blah/OURDEVICE). | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | 3. The CM writes the host name, supported band groups, | ||
| 17 | and the CHID (host ID) into the wusb_host_name, | ||
| 18 | wusb_host_band_groups and wusb_chid files. These | ||
| 19 | get sent to the device and the CDID (if any) for | ||
| 20 | this host is requested. | ||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | 4. The CM can verify that the device's supported band | ||
| 23 | groups (wusb_device_band_groups) are compatible | ||
| 24 | with the host. | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | 5. The CM reads the wusb_cdid file. | ||
| 27 | |||
| 28 | 6. The CM looks it up its database. | ||
| 29 | |||
| 30 | - If it has a matching CHID,CDID entry, the device | ||
| 31 | has been authorized before and nothing further | ||
| 32 | needs to be done. | ||
| 33 | |||
| 34 | - If the CDID is zero (or the CM doesn't find a | ||
| 35 | matching CDID in its database), the device is | ||
| 36 | assumed to be not known. The CM may associate | ||
| 37 | the host with device by: writing a randomly | ||
| 38 | generated CDID to wusb_cdid and then a random CK | ||
| 39 | to wusb_ck (this uploads the new CC to the | ||
| 40 | device). | ||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | CMD may choose to prompt the user before | ||
| 43 | associating with a new device. | ||
| 44 | |||
| 45 | 7. Device is unplugged. | ||
