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

help
USB is a master/slave protocol, organized with one master
host (such as a PC) controlling up to 127 peripheral devices.
The USB hardware is asymmetric, which makes it easier to set up:
you can't connect a "to-the-host" connector to a peripheral.
Linux can run in the host, or in the peripheral. In both cases
you need a low level bus controller driver, and some software
talking to it. Peripheral controllers are often discrete silicon,
or are integrated with the CPU in a microcontroller. The more
familiar host side controllers have names like "EHCI", "OHCI",
or "UHCI", and are usually integrated into southbridges on PC
motherboards.
Enable this configuration option if you want to run Linux inside
a USB peripheral device. Configure one hardware driver for your
peripheral/device side bus controller, and a "gadget driver" for
your peripheral protocol. (If you use modular gadget drivers,
you may configure more than one.)
If in doubt, say "N" and don't enable these drivers; most people
don't have this kind of hardware (except maybe inside Linux PDAs).
For more information, see <http://www.linux-usb.org/gadget> and
the kernel DocBook documentation for this API.
if USB_GADGET
config USB_GADGET_DEBUG
boolean "Debugging messages (DEVELOPMENT)"
depends on DEBUG_KERNEL
help
Many controller and gadget drivers will print some debugging
messages if you use this option to ask for those messages.
Avoid enabling these messages, even if you're actively
debugging such a driver. Many drivers will emit so many
messages that the driver timings are affected, which will
either create new failure modes or remove the one you're
trying to track down. Never enable these messages for a
production build.
config USB_GADGET_VERBOSE
bool "Verbose debugging Messages (DEVELOPMENT)"
depends on USB_GADGET_DEBUG
help
Many controller and gadget drivers will print verbose debugging
messages if you use this option to ask for those messages.
Avoid enabling these messages, even if you're actively
debugging such a driver. Many drivers will emit so many
messages that the driver timings are affected, which will
either create new failure modes or remove the one you're
trying to track down. Never enable these messages for a
production build.
config USB_GADGET_DEBUG_FILES
boolean "Debugging information files (DEVELOPMENT)"
depends on PROC_FS
help
Some of the drivers in the "gadget" framework can expose
debugging information in files such as /proc/driver/udc
(for a peripheral controller). The information in these
files may help when you're troubleshooting or bringing up a
driver on a new board. Enable these files by choosing "Y"
here. If in doubt, or to conserve kernel memory, say "N".
config USB_GADGET_DEBUG_FS
boolean "Debugging information files in debugfs (DEVELOPMENT)"
depends on DEBUG_FS
help
Some of the drivers in the "gadget" framework can expose
debugging information in files under /sys/kernel/debug/.
The information in these files may help when you're
troubleshooting or bringing up a driver on a new board.
Enable these files by choosing "Y" here. If in doubt, or
to conserve kernel memory, say "N".
config USB_GADGET_VBUS_DRAW
int "Maximum VBUS Power usage (2-500 mA)"
range 2 500
default 2
help
Some devices need to draw power from USB when they are
configured, perhaps to operate circuitry or to recharge
batteries. This is in addition to any local power supply,
such as an AC adapter or batteries.
Enter the maximum power your device draws through USB, in
milliAmperes. The permitted range of values is 2 - 500 mA;
0 mA would be legal, but can make some hosts misbehave.
This value will be used except for system-specific gadget
drivers that have more specific information.
config USB_GADGET_STORAGE_NUM_BUFFERS
int "Number of storage pipeline buffers"
range 2 4
default 2
help
Usually 2 buffers are enough to establish a good buffering
pipeline. The number may be increased in order to compensate
for a bursty VFS behaviour. For instance there may be CPU wake up
latencies that makes the VFS to appear bursty in a system with
an CPU on-demand governor. Especially if DMA is doing IO to
offload the CPU. In this case the CPU will go into power
save often and spin up occasionally to move data within VFS.
If selecting USB_GADGET_DEBUG_FILES this value may be set by
a module parameter as well.
If unsure, say 2.

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

help
A Linux USB "gadget" can be set up through configfs.
If this is the case, the USB functions (which from the host's
perspective are seen as interfaces) and configurations are
specified simply by creating appropriate directories in configfs.
Associating functions with configurations is done by creating
appropriate symbolic links.
For more information see Documentation/usb/gadget_configfs.txt.

Microsoft Windows XP bundles the "Remote NDIS" (RNDIS) protocol,
and Microsoft provides redistributable binary RNDIS drivers for
older versions of Windows.
To make MS-Windows work with this, use Documentation/usb/linux.inf
as the "driver info file". For versions of MS-Windows older than
XP, you'll need to download drivers from Microsoft's website; a URL
is given in comments found in that info file.

CDC EEM is a newer USB standard that is somewhat simpler than CDC ECM
and therefore can be supported by more hardware. Technically ECM and
EEM are designed for different applications. The ECM model extends
the network interface to the target (e.g. a USB cable modem), and the
EEM model is for mobile devices to communicate with hosts using
ethernet over USB. For Linux gadgets, however, the interface with
the host is the same (a usbX device), so the differences are minimal.

of composite gadgets such that some of the functions are
implemented in kernel space (for instance Ethernet, serial or
mass storage) and other are implemented in user space.
