| 4 | This is reference manual for USB subsystem for HelenOS.
|
---|
| 5 |
|
---|
| 6 | HelenOS is a microkernel operating system where most of the functionality
|
---|
| 7 | is provided by userspace tasks rather than system calls.
|
---|
| 8 | This includes file system service, networking and also device drivers.
|
---|
| 9 |
|
---|
| 10 | USB is a standard for communication between host computers and computer
|
---|
| 11 | peripherals.
|
---|
| 12 | The advantage of USB over other kinds of connection between a computer
|
---|
| 13 | and a peripheral is its flexibility.
|
---|
| 14 | USB supports plugging and unplugging of devices without need to turn
|
---|
| 15 | off any of the components.
|
---|
| 16 | The data flow model is designed to accommodate together peripherals
|
---|
| 17 | with different transfer characteristics.
|
---|
| 18 |
|
---|
| 19 | Adding support for USB devices to HelenOS shall improve the usability
|
---|
| 20 | of the system in general even if the support concerns only USB 1.1 and
|
---|
| 21 | the only peripheral drivers are for keyboards and mice.
