Pull USB fixes from Greg KH: "Here's a round of USB fixes for 4.0-rc3. Nothing major, the usual gadget, xhci and usb-serial fixes and a few new device ids as well. All have been in linux-next successfully" * tag 'usb-4.0-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb: (36 commits) xhci: Workaround for PME stuck issues in Intel xhci xhci: fix reporting of 0-sized URBs in control endpoint usb: ftdi_sio: Add jtag quirk support for Cyber Cortex AV boards USB: ch341: set tty baud speed according to tty struct USB: serial: cp210x: Adding Seletek device id's USB: pl2303: disable break on shutdown USB: mxuport: fix null deref when used as a console USB: serial: clean up bus probe error handling USB: serial: fix port attribute-creation race USB: serial: fix tty-device error handling at probe USB: serial: fix potential use-after-free after failed probe USB: console: add dummy __module_get USB: ftdi_sio: add PIDs for Actisense USB devices Revert "USB: serial: make bulk_out_size a lower limit" cdc-acm: Add support for Denso cradle CU-321 usb-storage: support for more than 8 LUNs uas: Add US_FL_NO_REPORT_OPCODES for JMicron JMS539 USB: usbfs: don't leak kernel data in siginfo xhci: Clear the host side toggle manually when endpoint is 'soft reset' xhci: Allocate correct amount of scratchpad buffers ...
To understand all the Linux-USB framework, you'll use these resources:
* This source code. This is necessarily an evolving work, and
includes kerneldoc that should help you get a current overview.
("make pdfdocs", and then look at "usb.pdf" for host side and
"gadget.pdf" for peripheral side.) Also, Documentation/usb has
more information.
* The USB 2.0 specification (from www.usb.org), with supplements
such as those for USB OTG and the various device classes.
The USB specification has a good overview chapter, and USB
peripherals conform to the widely known "Chapter 9".
* Chip specifications for USB controllers. Examples include
host controllers (on PCs, servers, and more); peripheral
controllers (in devices with Linux firmware, like printers or
cell phones); and hard-wired peripherals like Ethernet adapters.
* Specifications for other protocols implemented by USB peripheral
functions. Some are vendor-specific; others are vendor-neutral
but just standardized outside of the www.usb.org team.
Here is a list of what each subdirectory here is, and what is contained in
them.
core/ - This is for the core USB host code, including the
usbfs files and the hub class driver ("hub_wq").
host/ - This is for USB host controller drivers. This
includes UHCI, OHCI, EHCI, and others that might
be used with more specialized "embedded" systems.
gadget/ - This is for USB peripheral controller drivers and
the various gadget drivers which talk to them.
Individual USB driver directories. A new driver should be added to the
first subdirectory in the list below that it fits into.
image/ - This is for still image drivers, like scanners or
digital cameras.
../input/ - This is for any driver that uses the input subsystem,
like keyboard, mice, touchscreens, tablets, etc.
../media/ - This is for multimedia drivers, like video cameras,
radios, and any other drivers that talk to the v4l
subsystem.
../net/ - This is for network drivers.
serial/ - This is for USB to serial drivers.
storage/ - This is for USB mass-storage drivers.
class/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories, and work for a range
of USB Class specified devices.
misc/ - This is for all USB device drivers that do not fit
into any of the above categories.
