USB - 通过configfs配置Linux USB Gadget

Linux USB gadget configured through configfs

Overview

USB Linux 小工具是一种具有 UDC（USB 设备控制器）的设备，可连接到 USB 主机，以扩展其附加功能，如串行端口或大容量存储功能。

A USB Linux Gadget is a device which has a UDC (USB Device Controller) and can be connected to a USB Host to extend it with additional functions like a serial port or a mass storage capability.

主机将gadget视为一组配置，每个配置都包含若干接口，从gadget的角度看，这些接口被称为功能，每个功能代表一个串行连接或 SCSI 磁盘等。

A gadget is seen by its host as a set of configurations, each of which contains a number of interfaces which, from the gadget's perspective, are known as functions, each function representing e.g. a serial connection or a SCSI disk.

Linux 为gadget提供了许多功能。

Linux provides a number of functions for gadgets to use.

创建gadget意味着要决定有哪些配置，以及每个配置将提供哪些功能。

Creating a gadget means deciding what configurations there will be and which functions each configuration will provide.

Configfs（请参阅 Configfs - 用户空间驱动的内核对象配置）可以很好地将上述决定告知内核。本文档将介绍如何做到这一点。 (Configfs - Userspace-driven Kernel Object Configuration — The Linux Kernel documentation)

Configfs (please see Configfs - Userspace-driven Kernel Object Configuration) lends itself nicely for the purpose of telling the kernel about the above mentioned decision. This document is about how to do it.

本文还将介绍如何将 configfs 集成到gadget中。

Requirements

为使其正常工作，configfs 必须可用，因此 .config 中的 CONFIGFS_FS 必须为 "y "或 "m"。目前，USB_LIBCOMPOSITE 选择 CONFIGFS_FS。

In order for this to work configfs must be available, so CONFIGFS_FS must be 'y' or 'm' in .config. As of this writing USB_LIBCOMPOSITE selects CONF
