DESCRIPTION
OpenBSD provides machine-independent bus support and drivers for
Universal Serial Bus (USB) devices.
The OpenBSD usb driver has three layers (like scsi(4) and pcmcia(4)): the
controller, the bus, and the device layer. The controller attaches to a
physical bus (like pci(4) or cardbus(4)). The USB bus attaches to the
controller and the root hub attaches to the USB bus. Devices, which may
include further hubs, attach to the root hub. The attachment forms the
same tree structure as the physical USB device tree. For each USB device
there may be additional drivers attached to it.
The uhub driver controls USB hubs and must always be present since there
is at least one root hub in any USB system.
The flags are used to specify if the devices on the USB bus should be
probed early in the boot process. If the flags are specified with a
value of 1, the USB bus will be probed when the USB host device is
attached instead of waiting until kernel processes start running.
OpenBSD provides support for the following devices. Note that not all
architectures support all devices.

INTRODUCTION TO USB
There are different versions of the USB which provide different speeds.
USB 2 operates at 480Mb/s, while USB versions 1 and 1.1 operate at 12
Mb/s and 1.5 Mb/s for low speed devices. Each USB has a host controller
that is the master of the bus; all other devices on the bus only speak
when spoken to.
There can be up to 127 devices (apart from the host controller) on a bus,
each with its own address. The addresses are assigned dynamically by the
host when each device is attached to the bus.
Within each device there can be up to 16 endpoints. Each endpoint is
individually addressed and the addresses are static. Each of these
endpoints will communicate in one of four different modes: control,
isochronous, bulk, or interrupt. A device always has at least one
endpoint. This is a control endpoint at address 0 and is used to give
commands to the device and extract basic data, such as descriptors, from
the device. Each endpoint, except the control endpoint, is
unidirectional.
The endpoints in a device are grouped into interfaces. An interface is a
logical unit within a device; e.g., a compound device with both a
keyboard and a trackball would present one interface for each. An
interface can sometimes be set into different modes, called alternate
settings, which affects how it operates. Different alternate settings
can have different endpoints within it.
A device may operate in different configurations. Depending on the
configuration the device may present different sets of endpoints and
interfaces.
Each device located on a hub has several config(8) locators:
port Number of the port on closest upstream hub.
configuration Configuration the device must be in for this driver to
attach. This locator does not set the configuration; it
is iterated by the bus enumeration.
interface Interface number within a device that an interface driver
attaches to.
vendor 16-bit vendor ID of the device.
product 16-bit product ID of the device.
release 16-bit release (revision) number of the device.
The first locator can be used to pin down a particular device according
to its physical position in the device tree. The last three locators can
be used to pin down a particular device according to what device it
actually is.
The bus enumeration of the USB bus proceeds in several steps:
1. Any device-specific driver can attach to the device.
2. If none is found, any device class specific driver can attach.
3. If none is found, all configurations are iterated over. For each
configuration all the interfaces are iterated over and interface
drivers can attach. If any interface driver attached in a certain
configuration, the iteration over configurations is stopped.
4. If still no drivers have been found, the generic USB driver can
attach.
USB CONTROLLER INTERFACE
Use the following to get access to the USB specific structures and
defines:
#include <dev/usb/usb.h>
The /dev/usbN device can be opened and a few operations can be performed
on it. The poll(2) system call will say that I/O is possible on the
controller device when a USB device has been connected or disconnected to
the bus.
The following ioctl(2) commands are supported on the controller device:
USB_DEVICEINFO struct usb_device_info *
This command can be used to retrieve some information about a
device on the bus. The udi_addr field should be filled before
the call and the other fields will be filled by information about
the device on that address. Should no such device exist, an
error is reported.
#define USB_MAX_DEVNAMES 4
#define USB_MAX_DEVNAMELEN 16
struct usb_device_info {
u_int8_t udi_bus;
u_int8_t udi_addr; /* device address */
usb_event_cookie_t udi_cookie;
char udi_product[USB_MAX_STRING_LEN];
char udi_vendor[USB_MAX_STRING_LEN];
char udi_release[8];
u_int16_t udi_productNo;
u_int16_t udi_vendorNo;
u_int16_t udi_releaseNo;
u_int8_t udi_class;
u_int8_t udi_subclass;
u_int8_t udi_protocol;
u_int8_t udi_config;
u_int8_t udi_speed;
#define USB_SPEED_LOW 1
#define USB_SPEED_FULL 2
#define USB_SPEED_HIGH 3
int udi_power; /* power consumption */
int udi_nports;
char udi_devnames[USB_MAX_DEVNAMES]
[USB_MAX_DEVNAMELEN];
u_int8_t udi_ports[16]; /* hub only */
#define USB_PORT_ENABLED 0xff
#define USB_PORT_SUSPENDED 0xfe
#define USB_PORT_POWERED 0xfd
#define USB_PORT_DISABLED 0xfc
};
The udi_bus field contains the device unit number of the device.
The udi_product, udi_vendor, and udi_release fields contain self-
explanatory descriptions of the device. The udi_productNo,
udi_vendorNo, and udi_releaseNo fields contain numeric
identifiers for the device.
The udi_class and udi_subclass fields contain the device class
and subclass.
The udi_config field shows the current configuration of the
device.
The udi_protocol field contains the device protocol as given from
the device.
The udi_speed field contains the speed of the device.
The udi_power field shows the power consumption in milli-amps
drawn at 5 volts or is zero if the device is self powered.
The udi_devnames field contains the names and instance numbers of
the device drivers for the devices attached to this device.
If the device is a hub, the udi_nports field is non-zero and the
udi_ports field contains the addresses of the connected devices.
If no device is connected to a port, one of the USB_PORT_* values
indicates its status.
USB_DEVICESTATS struct usb_device_stats *
This command retrieves statistics about the controller.
struct usb_device_stats {
u_long uds_requests[4];
};
The uds_requests field is indexed by the transfer kind, i.e.
UE_*, and indicates how many transfers of each kind have been
completed by the controller.
USB_REQUEST struct usb_ctl_request *
This command can be used to execute arbitrary requests on the
control pipe. This is DANGEROUS and should be used with great
care since it can destroy the bus integrity.
The usb_ctl_request structure has the following definition:
typedef struct {
uByte bmRequestType;
uByte bRequest;
uWord wValue;
uWord wIndex;
uWord wLength;
} __packed usb_device_request_t;
struct usb_ctl_request {
int ucr_addr;
usb_device_request_t ucr_request;
void *ucr_data;
int ucr_flags;
#define USBD_SHORT_XFER_OK 0x04 /* allow short reads */
int ucr_actlen; /* actual length transferred */
};
The ucr_addr field identifies the device on which to perform the
request. The ucr_request field identifies parameters of the
request, such as length and type. The ucr_data field contains
the location where data will be read from or written to. The
ucr_flags field specifies options for the request, and the
ucr_actlen field contains the actual length transferred as the
result of the request.
The include file <dev/usb/usb.h> contains definitions for the types used
by the various ioctl(2) calls. The naming convention of the fields for
the various USB descriptors exactly follows the naming in the USB
specification. Byte sized fields can be accessed directly, but word (16-
bit) sized fields must be accessed by the UGETW(field) and USETW(field,
value) macros and double word (32-bit) sized fields must be accessed by
the UGETDW(field) and USETDW(field, value) macros to handle byte order
and alignment properly.
The include file <dev/usb/usbhid.h> similarly contains the definitions
for Human Interface Devices (HID).
