| 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. |

| Some devices need to draw power from USB when they are |

| 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. |

| 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. |
