- config USB_DEBUG
- bool "USB verbose debug messages"
- depends on USB
- help
- Say Y here if you want the USB core & hub drivers to produce a bunch
- of debug messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a
- problem with USB support and want to see more of what is going on.
- config USB_ANNOUNCE_NEW_DEVICES
- bool "USB announce new devices"
- depends on USB
- default N
- help
- Say Y here if you want the USB core to always announce the
- idVendor, idProduct, Manufacturer, Product, and SerialNumber
- strings for every new USB device to the syslog. This option is
- usually used by distro vendors to help with debugging and to
- let users know what specific device was added to the machine
- in what location.
- If you do not want this kind of information sent to the system
- log, or have any doubts about this, say N here.
- comment "Miscellaneous USB options"

- config USB_DEVICEFS
- bool "USB device filesystem (DEPRECATED)"
- depends on USB
- ---help---
- If you say Y here (and to "/proc file system support" in the "File
- systems" section, above), you will get a file /proc/bus/usb/devices
- which lists the devices currently connected to your USB bus or
- busses, and for every connected device a file named
- "/proc/bus/usb/xxx/yyy", where xxx is the bus number and yyy the
- device number; the latter files can be used by user space programs
- to talk directly to the device. These files are "virtual", meaning
- they are generated on the fly and not stored on the hard drive.
- You may need to mount the usbfs file system to see the files, use
- mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb
- For the format of the various /proc/bus/usb/ files, please read
- <file:Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt>.
- Modern Linux systems do not use this.
- Usbfs entries are files and not character devices; usbfs can't
- handle Access Control Lists (ACL) which are the default way to
- grant access to USB devices for untrusted users of a desktop
- system.
- The usbfs functionality is replaced by real device-nodes managed by
- udev. These nodes lived in /dev/bus/usb and are used by libusb.
- config USB_DEVICE_CLASS
- bool "USB device class-devices (DEPRECATED)"
- depends on USB
- default y
- ---help---
- Userspace access to USB devices is granted by device-nodes exported
- directly from the usbdev in sysfs. Old versions of the driver
- core and udev needed additional class devices to export device nodes.
- These additional devices are difficult to handle in userspace, if
- information about USB interfaces must be available. One device
- contains the device node, the other device contains the interface
- data. Both devices are at the same level in sysfs (siblings) and one
- can't access the other. The device node created directly by the
- usb device is the parent device of the interface and therefore
- easily accessible from the interface event.
- This option provides backward compatibility for libusb device
- nodes (lsusb) when usbfs is not used, and the following udev rule
- doesn't exist:
- SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
- NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"
- config USB_DYNAMIC_MINORS
- bool "Dynamic USB minor allocation"
- depends on USB
- help
- If you say Y here, the USB subsystem will use dynamic minor
- allocation for any device that uses the USB major number.
- This means that you can have more than 16 of a single type
- of device (like USB printers).
- If you are unsure about this, say N here.
- config USB_SUSPEND
- bool "USB runtime power management (autosuspend) and wakeup"
- depends on USB && PM_RUNTIME
- help
- If you say Y here, you can use driver calls or the sysfs
- "power/control" file to enable or disable autosuspend for
- individual USB peripherals (see
- Documentation/usb/power-management.txt for more details).
- Also, USB "remote wakeup" signaling is supported, whereby some
- USB devices (like keyboards and network adapters) can wake up
- their parent hub. That wakeup cascades up the USB tree, and
- could wake the system from states like suspend-to-RAM.
- If you are unsure about this, say N here.
- config USB_OTG
- bool "OTG support"
- depends on USB && EXPERIMENTAL
- depends on USB_SUSPEND
- default n
- help
- The most notable feature of USB OTG is support for a
- "Dual-Role" device, which can act as either a device
- or a host. The initial role is decided by the type of
- plug inserted and can be changed later when two dual
- role devices talk to each other.
- Select this only if your board has Mini-AB/Micro-AB
- connector.
- config USB_OTG_WHITELIST
- bool "Rely on OTG Targeted Peripherals List"
- depends on USB_OTG || EXPERT
- default y if USB_OTG
- default n if EXPERT
- help
- If you say Y here, the "otg_whitelist.h" file will be used as a
- product whitelist, so USB peripherals not listed there will be
- rejected during enumeration. This behavior is required by the
- USB OTG specification for all devices not on your product's
- "Targeted Peripherals List". "Embedded Hosts" are likewise
- allowed to support only a limited number of peripherals.
- Otherwise, peripherals not listed there will only generate a
- warning and enumeration will continue. That's more like what
- normal Linux-USB hosts do (other than the warning), and is
- convenient for many stages of product development.
- config USB_OTG_BLACKLIST_HUB
- bool "Disable external hubs"
- depends on USB_OTG || EXPERT
- help
- If you say Y here, then Linux will refuse to enumerate
- external hubs. OTG hosts are allowed to reduce hardware
- and software costs by not supporting external hubs. So
- are "Embedded Hosts" that don't offer OTG support.
