USB(通用串行总线)Linux®框架支持多种类型的:
- 主机控制器和外围设备
- 在外围设备中使用的小工具驱动程序和类
Linux可以在主机上使用。 在这种情况下,可以插入各种类型的外围设备,例如:
- 大容量存储(硬盘驱动器,USB记忆棒..)
- HID(键盘,鼠标..)
使用小工具驱动程序,Linux也可以用作外围设备。 在这种情况下,它可以充当:
- USB大容量存储(例如,导出某些分区,文件系统)
- 以太网卡
- 串口
- ...

USB用户空间('用户空间)
- “Host-Side”用户区
- - libusb[1]是一个Userland库,可提供对USB设备的访问。
- - usbutils[2] 是一组USB实用程序,用于收集有关连接到USB主机的USB设备的信息。 注意usbutils取决于libusb。
- - 众所周知的实用程序之一是lsusb,它用于显示有关USB总线及其连接的设备的信息。
- Gadget 用户群
- - libusbg[3] 是一个Userland库,它提供了使用configfs API创建和解析USB小工具设备的例程。
- - |}} Gadget configfs 提供通过用户终端可用的配置界面,用于配置USB小工具。
- 公共用户区
- - 'sysfs提供了一个可通过用户终端使用的信息界面。 请参见 How to monitor with sysfs below.
- - debugfs提供了一个调试界面,可通过用户终端使用。 请参见 How to monitor with debugfs .
-
USB framework (内核空间): 由两部分组成,即USB“主机侧”和USB“小配件”,它们依赖于具有特定 APIs 以支持USB主机和设备控制器
- 主机端为类驱动程序提供API接口,并将请求从类驱动程序转发到主机控制器驱动程序。
- Gadget需要外围控制器和小工具驱动程序才能使用。
-
USB controller drivers (内核空间)
- USB Host-Side框架中的“ USB Host控制器驱动程序”,例如 STM32 USBHUSB Host控制器。 STM32 USBH 基于USB framework使用内核社区驱动程序(内核空间)。
- - |}} Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) driver and |}} Generic platform ehci driver
- - |}} Open Host Controller Interface (OHCI) driver and |}} Generic platform ohci driver
- USB Host-Side框架中的[USB OTG控制器驱动程序,例如 STM32 OTG USB OTG控制器,如果在'otg或host中使用它们 ”和/或USB小工具框架中的“ otg”或“ peripheral”模式使用。STM32 OTG 基于USB framework使用内核社区驱动程序(内核空间)
- USB控制器驱动程序可以依靠 Generic PHY framework 管理USB数据传输的物理层。 STM32 USBPHYC PHY提供程序是通用PHY框架中的“ PHY驱动程序”:
- USB hardware controllers (硬件)
USB控制器,例如 STM32 USBH internal peripheral和 STM32 OTG internal peripheral, 使用片上高速UTMI + PHY(STM32 USBPHYC internal peripheral)),或用于STM32 OTG internal peripheral的片上全速PHY。
-
USB devices (外部USB设备)
- USB OTG规范[4]为USB设备定义了两个角色:A设备和B设备。 STM32 OTG controller取决于所使用的USB连接器,可以同时接受A设备和B设备,而 STM32 USBH Host controller 仅管理B设备 :
- - A-Device是一个充当USB主机的电源供应商(例如PC)
- - B-device是耗电量,充当USB外设(例如,USB闪存盘)。

How to monitor with sysfs
USB buses monitoring with sysfs
Please refer to What are the sysfs structures for Linux USB?[6].
Board $> ls /sys/bus/usb/devices/ 1-0:1.0 1-1 1-1:1.0 2-0:1.0 2-1 2-1.4 2-1.4:1.0 2-1:1.0 usb1 usb2
The names that begin with usb refer to USB controllers.
The device naming scheme is the following:
- bus-port.port.port... (1-1, 2-1, or 2-1.4 in the example above)
The interfaces are indicated by suffixes in the following form:
- :config.interface (1-1:1.0, 2-1:1.0, 2-1.4:1.0 in the example above)
Each interface corresponds to an entry in sysfs and can have its own driver.
USB Gadget monitoring with sysfs
Once the USB Gadget is configured, USB Device Controller sysfs is populated. See Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-class-udc| |}} Documentation/ABI/stable/sysfs-class-udc for a description of each file.
Board $> ls /sys/class/udc/49000000.usb-otg/ a_alt_hnp_support device is_selfpowered srp a_hnp_support function maximum_speed state b_hnp_enable is_a_peripheral power subsystem current_speed is_otg soft_connect uevent
How to trace
How to trace with usbmon
usbmon [7] collects traces of the input/output on the USB bus.
It relies on a kernel part and on a user part, and reports the requests made by USB device drivers to the Host controller drivers.
Activate USBMON support (CONFIG_USB_MON=y) in the kernel configuration with Linux Menuconfig tool: Menuconfig or how to configure kernel.
A usbmon entry is created in debugfs. It includes several files.
The file names consist of a number (the USB bus - 0 relates to all buses) and a letter (s, u or t). The s file contains a generic event overview. The t (deprecated) and u files will stream trace data.
To gather debug data, either use the master file 0u (to capture data from all devices) or find out the bus to which your device is connected and use the corresponding bus file. For example, if the device is connected to bus 1:
Board $> cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon>1u > bus1data.log
To stop the capture, just type (CTRL+C) to kill the command. You can then analyze the log with vUSBAnalyzer graphical tool on your Linux host.
How to trace using a protocol analyzer
A USB protocol analyzer is a USB traffic sniffer that decodes USB descriptors and displays bus states and packets sent. Refer to you USB protocol analyzer user manual.
How to debug
Activating USB framework debug messages
A detailed dynamic trace is available in How to use the kernel dynamic debug
Board $> echo "file usb* +p" > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
This command enables all the traces related to the USB core and drivers at runtime.
A finer selection can be made by choosing only the files to trace.
Reminder: loglevel needs to be increased to 8 either by using boot arguments or by sending the dmesg -n 8 command from the console |
EHCI/OHCI driver debugfs entry
EHCI/OHCI drivers export a debugfs entry when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is enabled.
Board $> ls /sys/kernel/debug/usb/ohci/5800c000.usbh-ohci/ async periodic registers Board $> ls /sys/kernel/debug/usb/ehci/5800d000.usbh-ehci/ async bandwidth periodic registers
- async dumps a snapshot of the async schedule.
- bandwith dumps the bandwidth allocation
- periodic dumps a snapshot of the periodic schedule.
- registers dumps the USB controller registers
DWC2 driver debug messages and debugfs entry
To get the verbose messages from the DWC2 driver used by STM32 OTG, activate "Enable Debugging Messages" in the Linux kernel via the menuconfig Menuconfig or how to configure kernel.
Device Drivers ---> [*] USB support <*> Support for Host-side USB <*> USB Gadget Support ---> <*> DesignWare USB2 DRD Core Support [*] Enable Debugging Messages [*] Enable Verbose Debugging Messages [ ] Enable Missed SOF Tracking [*] Enable Debugging Messages For Periodic Transfers
This can be done manually in your kernel .config file:
CONFIG_USB_SUPPORT=y CONFIG_USB_DWC2=y CONFIG_USB_DWC2_DEBUG=y CONFIG_USB_DWC2_VERBOSE=y CONFIG_USB_DWC2_DEBUG_PERIODIC=y
The debug support for DWC2 driver (CONFIG_USB_DWC2_DEBUG) compiles all the files located in Linux kernel drivers/usb/dwc2/| |}} drivers/usb/dwc2/ folder with DEBUG flag.
Reminder: loglevel needs to be increased to 8 by using either boot arguments or the dmesg -n 8 command through the console |
The DWC2 driver also exports a debugfs entry that contains useful information:
Board $> ls /sys/kernel/debug/49000000.usb-otg/ dr_mode ep0 ep1in ep1out ep2in ep2out ep3in ep3out ep4in ep4out ep5in ep5out ep6in ep6out ep7in ep7out ep8in ep8out fifo hw_params params regdump state testmode
- dr_mode indicates the working mode of the USB controller. It can be "host", "peripheral" or "otg". The value is set through a device tree property.
- ep* files show the state of the given endpoint.
- fifo shows the FIFO information for the overall FIFO and all the periodic transmission FIFOs.
- hw_params shows the parameters read from USB controller registers.
- params shows the parameters used by the driver.
- regdump dumps all the USB controller registers.
- state shows the overall state of the hardware controller and some general information on the available endpoints.
- testmode shows/sets usb test mode ("test_j", "test_k", "test_se0_nak", "test_packet", "test_force_enable").
Source code location
The source files are located inside the Linux kernel.
