Re: USB bulk transfer device driver

[Nazim Khan]

Hi Srini,

It depends what class of USB your driver falls in.
Linux already has generic classes drivers built into the kernel and if
your device complies with the standard you should be able to straight
away using the standard drivers.

i.e. USB Disk, its a mass storage device which uses bulk transfer. You
don't have to write any driver for this. Just enable appropriate options
in the kernel config, rebuild the kernel and attach your disk.

The disk should appear as a scsi device. (see the kernel boot up
messages).

Hope this helps.
