+===========================
+Linux USB HID gadget driver
+===========================
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+The HID Gadget driver provides emulation of USB Human Interface
+Devices (HID). The basic HID handling is done in the kernel,
+and HID reports can be sent/received through I/O on the
+/dev/hidgX character devices.
+
+For more details about HID, see the developer page on
+https://www.usb.org/developers/hidpage/
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+g_hid is a platform driver, so to use it you need to add
+struct platform_device(s) to your platform code defining the
+HID function descriptors you want to use - E.G. something
+like::
+
+ #include <linux/platform_device.h>
+ #include <linux/usb/g_hid.h>
+
+ /* hid descriptor for a keyboard */
+ static struct hidg_func_descriptor my_hid_data = {
+ .subclass = 0, /* No subclass */
+ .protocol = 1, /* Keyboard */
+ .report_length = 8,
+ .report_desc_length = 63,
+ .report_desc = {
+ 0x05, 0x01, /* USAGE_PAGE (Generic Desktop) */
+ 0x09, 0x06, /* USAGE (Keyboard) */
+ 0xa1, 0x01, /* COLLECTION (Application) */
+ 0x05, 0x07, /* USAGE_PAGE (Keyboard) */
+ 0x19, 0xe0, /* USAGE_MINIMUM (Keyboard LeftControl) */
+ 0x29, 0xe7, /* USAGE_MAXIMUM (Keyboard Right GUI) */
+ 0x15, 0x00, /* LOGICAL_MINIMUM (0) */
+ 0x25, 0x01, /* LOGICAL_MAXIMUM (1) */
+ 0x75, 0x01, /* REPORT_SIZE (1) */
+ 0x95, 0x08, /* REPORT_COUNT (8) */
+ 0x81, 0x02, /* INPUT (Data,Var,Abs) */
+ 0x95, 0x01, /* REPORT_COUNT (1) */
+ 0x75, 0x08, /* REPORT_SIZE (8) */
+ 0x81, 0x03, /* INPUT (Cnst,Var,Abs) */
+ 0x95, 0x05, /* REPORT_COUNT (5) */
+ 0x75, 0x01, /* REPORT_SIZE (1) */
+ 0x05, 0x08, /* USAGE_PAGE (LEDs) */
+ 0x19, 0x01, /* USAGE_MINIMUM (Num Lock) */
+ 0x29, 0x05, /* USAGE_MAXIMUM (Kana) */
+ 0x91, 0x02, /* OUTPUT (Data,Var,Abs) */
+ 0x95, 0x01, /* REPORT_COUNT (1) */
+ 0x75, 0x03, /* REPORT_SIZE (3) */
+ 0x91, 0x03, /* OUTPUT (Cnst,Var,Abs) */
+ 0x95, 0x06, /* REPORT_COUNT (6) */
+ 0x75, 0x08, /* REPORT_SIZE (8) */
+ 0x15, 0x00, /* LOGICAL_MINIMUM (0) */
+ 0x25, 0x65, /* LOGICAL_MAXIMUM (101) */
+ 0x05, 0x07, /* USAGE_PAGE (Keyboard) */
+ 0x19, 0x00, /* USAGE_MINIMUM (Reserved) */
+ 0x29, 0x65, /* USAGE_MAXIMUM (Keyboard Application) */
+ 0x81, 0x00, /* INPUT (Data,Ary,Abs) */
+ 0xc0 /* END_COLLECTION */
+ }
+ };
+
+ static struct platform_device my_hid = {
+ .name = "hidg",
+ .id = 0,
+ .num_resources = 0,
+ .resource = 0,
+ .dev.platform_data = &my_hid_data,
+ };
+
+You can add as many HID functions as you want, only limited by
+the amount of interrupt endpoints your gadget driver supports.
+
+Configuration with configfs
+===========================
+
+Instead of adding fake platform devices and drivers in order to pass
+some data to the kernel, if HID is a part of a gadget composed with
+configfs the hidg_func_descriptor.report_desc is passed to the kernel
+by writing the appropriate stream of bytes to a configfs attribute.
+
+Send and receive HID reports
+============================
+
+HID reports can be sent/received using read/write on the
+/dev/hidgX character devices. See below for an example program
+to do this.
+
+hid_gadget_test is a small interactive program to test the HID
+gadget driver. To use, point it at a hidg device and set the
+device type (keyboard / mouse / joystick) - E.G.::
+
+ # hid_gadget_test /dev/hidg0 keyboard
+
+You are now in the prompt of hid_gadget_test. You can type any
+combination of options and values. Available options and
+values are listed at program start. In keyboard mode you can
+send up to six values.
+
+For example type: g i s t r --left-shift
+
+Hit return and the corresponding report will be sent by the
+HID gadget.
+
+Another interesting example is the caps lock test. Type
+--caps-lock and hit return. A report is then sent by the
+gadget and you should receive the host answer, corresponding
+to the caps lock LED status::
+
+ --caps-lock
+ recv report:2
+
+With this command::
+
+ # hid_gadget_test /dev/hidg1 mouse
+
+You can test the mouse emulation. Values are two signed numbers.
+
+
