8 Say Y here if you want the USB core & hub drivers to produce a bunch
9 of debug messages to the system log. Select this if you are having a
10 problem with USB support and want to see more of what is going on.

17 Say Y here if you want the USB core to always announce the
18 idVendor, idProduct, Manufacturer, Product, and SerialNumber
19 strings for every new USB device to the syslog. This option is
20 usually used by distro vendors to help with debugging and to
21 let users know what specific device was added to the machine
22 in what location.

24 If you do not want this kind of information sent to the system
25 log, or have any doubts about this, say N here.

34 If you say Y here (and to "/proc file system support" in the "File
35 systems" section, above), you will get a file /proc/bus/usb/devices
36 which lists the devices currently connected to your USB bus or
37 busses, and for every connected device a file named
38 "/proc/bus/usb/xxx/yyy", where xxx is the bus number and yyy the
39 device number; the latter files can be used by user space programs
40 to talk directly to the device. These files are "virtual", meaning
41 they are generated on the fly and not stored on the hard drive.
42
43 You may need to mount the usbfs file system to see the files, use
44 mount -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb
45
46 For the format of the various /proc/bus/usb/ files, please read
47 <file:Documentation/usb/proc_usb_info.txt>.

49 Usbfs files can't handle Access Control Lists (ACL), which are the
50 default way to grant access to USB devices for untrusted users of a
51 desktop system. The usbfs functionality is replaced by real
52 device-nodes managed by udev. These nodes live in /dev/bus/usb and
53 are used by libusb.

59 ---help---
60 Userspace access to USB devices is granted by device-nodes exported
61 directly from the usbdev in sysfs. Old versions of the driver
62 core and udev needed additional class devices to export device nodes.
63
64 These additional devices are difficult to handle in userspace, if
dda034bc
KS
65 information about USB interfaces must be available. One device
66 contains the device node, the other device contains the interface
67 data. Both devices are at the same level in sysfs (siblings) and one
68 can't access the other. The device node created directly by the
69 usb device is the parent device of the interface and therefore
70 easily accessible from the interface event.

72 This option provides backward compatibility for libusb device
73 nodes (lsusb) when usbfs is not used, and the following udev rule
74 doesn't exist:
75 SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ACTION=="add", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", \
76 NAME="bus/usb/$env{BUSNUM}/$env{DEVNUM}", MODE="0644"

81 help
82 If you say Y here, the USB subsystem will use dynamic minor
83 allocation for any device that uses the USB major number.
84 This means that you can have more than 16 of a single type
85 of device (like USB printers).

98 Also, USB "remote wakeup" signaling is supported, whereby some
99 USB devices (like keyboards and network adapters) can wake up
100 their parent hub. That wakeup cascades up the USB tree, and
101 could wake the system from states like suspend-to-RAM.

118 If you say Y here, the "otg_whitelist.h" file will be used as a
119 product whitelist, so USB peripherals not listed there will be
120 rejected during enumeration. This behavior is required by the
121 USB OTG specification for all devices not on your product's
22552b28
RG
122 "Targeted Peripherals List". "Embedded Hosts" are likewise
123 allowed to support only a limited number of peripherals.
1da177e4
LT
124
125 Otherwise, peripherals not listed there will only generate a
126 warning and enumeration will continue. That's more like what
127 normal Linux-USB hosts do (other than the warning), and is
128 convenient for many stages of product development.

133 help
134 If you say Y here, then Linux will refuse to enumerate
135 external hubs. OTG hosts are allowed to reduce hardware
22552b28 136 and software costs by not supporting external hubs. So
bc45df95 137 are "Embedded Hosts" that don't offer OTG support.
