# 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 of controller.
#
# 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).

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 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.

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".

A USB device uses a controller to talk to its host.
Systems should have only one such upstream link.
Many controller drivers are platform-specific; these
often need board-specific hooks.

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

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.
config USB_ZERO
tristate "Gadget Zero (DEVELOPMENT)"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
help
Gadget Zero is a two-configuration device. It either sinks and
sources bulk data; or it loops back a configurable number of
transfers. It also implements control requests, for "chapter 9"
conformance. The driver needs only two bulk-capable endpoints, so
it can work on top of most device-side usb controllers. It's
useful for testing, and is also a working example showing how
USB "gadget drivers" can be written.
Make this be the first driver you try using on top of any new
USB peripheral controller driver. Then you can use host-side
test software, like the "usbtest" driver, to put your hardware
and its driver through a basic set of functional tests.
Gadget Zero also works with the host-side "usb-skeleton" driver,
and with many kinds of host-side test software. You may need
to tweak product and vendor IDs before host software knows about
this device, and arrange to select an appropriate configuration.
Say "y" to link the driver statically, or "m" to build a
dynamically linked module called "g_zero".
config USB_ZERO_HNPTEST
boolean "HNP Test Device"
depends on USB_ZERO && USB_OTG
help
You can configure this device to enumerate using the device
identifiers of the USB-OTG test device. That means that when
this gadget connects to another OTG device, with this one using
the "B-Peripheral" role, that device will use HNP to let this
one serve as the USB host instead (in the "B-Host" role).
config USB_ETH
tristate "Ethernet Gadget (with CDC Ethernet support)"
depends on NET
help
This driver implements Ethernet style communication, in either
of two ways:
- The "Communication Device Class" (CDC) Ethernet Control Model.
That protocol is often avoided with pure Ethernet adapters, in
favor of simpler vendor-specific hardware, but is widely
supported by firmware for smart network devices.
- On hardware can't implement that protocol, a simple CDC subset
is used, placing fewer demands on USB.
RNDIS support is a third option, more demanding than that subset.
Within the USB device, this gadget driver exposes a network device
"usbX", where X depends on what other networking devices you have.
Treat it like a two-node Ethernet link: host, and gadget.
The Linux-USB host-side "usbnet" driver interoperates with this
driver, so that deep I/O queues can be supported. On 2.4 kernels,
use "CDCEther" instead, if you're using the CDC option. That CDC
mode should also interoperate with standard CDC Ethernet class
drivers on other host operating systems.
Say "y" to link the driver statically, or "m" to build a
dynamically linked module called "g_ether".
config USB_ETH_RNDIS
bool "RNDIS support (EXPERIMENTAL)"

help
Microsoft Windows XP bundles the "Remote NDIS" (RNDIS) protocol,
and Microsoft provides redistributable binary RNDIS drivers for
older versions of Windows.
If you say "y" here, the Ethernet gadget driver will try to provide
a second device configuration, supporting RNDIS to talk to such
Microsoft USB hosts.
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.
config USB_GADGETFS
tristate "Gadget Filesystem (EXPERIMENTAL)"

help
This driver provides a filesystem based API that lets user mode
programs implement a single-configuration USB device, including
endpoint I/O and control requests that don't relate to enumeration.
All endpoints, transfer speeds, and transfer types supported by
the hardware are available, through read() and write() calls.

dynamically linked module called "gadgetfs".

disk drive. As its storage repository it can use a regular
