#LINUX LSUSB COMMAND SOFTWARE#
Remember, earlier we learned the USB software enumeration interface has two parts, USB core enumeration and a USB class enumeration. It tells a block device /dev/sda is created. But it has more information of USB mass storage, SCSI, and SATA. Similar to the hub enumeration log we saw earlier, this log tells that the device is a super speed, enumerated on bus 2 and assigned to address 3. This log shows the enumeration of a super speed thumb drive. Obviously, this log also tells that bus 2 is super speed bus, while bus 1 is a high speed bus. As required by the USB would be specifications, a super speed USB hub should also support high speed, so this log also shows that a hub is enumerated as a high speed four port hub on bus 1. Here's the enumeration log showing our four port super speed USB hub is enumerated on bus 2.

Here it shows a four port high speed hub is enumerated on bus 3. We can also use lsusb-t command at any time to see the enumerated USB devices in the tree topology. Here's a log showing a USB high speed hub is enumerated on USB bus 3. Once the USB host is ready, it can enumerate any USB device attached. The first one is a USB 2.0 bus, and the second one is a USB 3.0 bus. Please note the PID of the two USB buses.

It shows that the xHCI controller driver is loaded, and then two USB buses are created, as in the messages highlighted in red. Here's a snippet of the AM56x kernel boot log. Otherwise, it reports a -99 error message.

If it's ready, lsusb command shows the USB bus information. We can also use lsusb command to check the USB buses are ready or not. And it shows that the MUSB controller driver is loaded, and then two USB buses are created, as in the message highlighted in red.

Here's a snippet of the AM335x kernel boot log. The Linux kernel boot log will provide some information.
#LINUX LSUSB COMMAND HOW TO#
How to check if the USB controller is already in host mode and ready to enumerate the USB devices. I will explain more on this later in this video.

The software enumeration in Linux can be further divided into two phases, too, the process handled by the USB core drivers and that handled by the USB class drivers. The electrical enumeration is handled by the hardware. What is enumeration? It is a USB activity that detects and identifies attached or detached USB devices so that applications can use them.Īn enumeration process has two phases, electrical enumeration and software enumeration. A VID is assigned and managed by USB-IF, and a PID is assigned by the manufacturer. Each is a 16-bit number embedded in the USB products and then communicated to the USB host during enumeration. Hubs are not allowed in Tier 7.Ī USB device is identified using the ID, which is a pair of a VID and a PID. The maximum number of materials allowed is seven, including the root tier, which is where the host is located. It has multiple downstream ports to connect multiple USB devices to form a star. USB devices are connected to the USB host through hubs.

A USB ethernet dongle could be presented eth0 network interface, same as a PCI network card. A USB web camera could be presented as /dev/video0, same as a video card. It presents the function of enumerated USB devices to the same as non-USB devices.įor example, a thumb drive can be presented /dev/sda, same as SATA hard drives. The enumeration is transparent to end users. It enumerates an attached to USB device and makes it ready for applications to use. USB host mode is to present the USB interface as a USB host port, like the one on a PC. Finally, I will give several examples to show how to check the USB device enumeration and how to read the enumeration information. We will have an overview of USB host mode, then introduce a few USB terminologies, which we will use in this video. I will not sure how to use a particular USB device, rather than how to check if a USB device is enumerated properly, and how to get the device enumeration information. In this video, I will explain how to use USB in host mode. This is the fifth video of the USB system design in Sitara devices using Linux Cirrus.
