Heikki Krogerus 289fcff4bc usb: add bus type for USB ULPI
UTMI+ Low Pin Interface (ULPI) is a commonly used PHY
interface for USB 2.0. The ULPI specification describes a
standard set of registers which the vendors can extend for
their specific needs. ULPI PHYs provide often functions
such as charger detection and ADP sensing and probing.

There are two major issues that the bus type is meant to
tackle:

Firstly, ULPI registers are accessed from the controller.
The bus provides convenient method for the controller
drivers to share that access with the actual PHY drivers.

Secondly, there are already platforms that assume ULPI PHYs
are runtime detected, such as many Intel Baytrail based
platforms. They do not provide any kind of hardware
description for the ULPI PHYs like separate ACPI device
object that could be used to enumerate a device from.

config USB_ANNOUNCE_NEW_DEVICES
bool "USB announce new devices"
help
Say Y here if you want the USB core to always announce the
idVendor, idProduct, Manufacturer, Product, and SerialNumber
strings for every new USB device to the syslog. This option is
usually used by distro vendors to help with debugging and to
let users know what specific device was added to the machine
in what location.
If you do not want this kind of information sent to the system
log, or have any doubts about this, say N here.

config USB_DEFAULT_PERSIST
bool "Enable USB persist by default"
default y
help
Say N here if you don't want USB power session persistence
enabled by default. If you say N it will make suspended USB
devices that lose power get reenumerated as if they had been
unplugged, causing any mounted filesystems to be lost. The
persist feature can still be enabled for individual devices
through the power/persist sysfs node. See
Documentation/usb/persist.txt for more info.
If you have any questions about this, say Y here, only say N
if you know exactly what you are doing.
config USB_DYNAMIC_MINORS
bool "Dynamic USB minor allocation"
help
If you say Y here, the USB subsystem will use dynamic minor
allocation for any device that uses the USB major number.
This means that you can have more than 16 of a single type
of device (like USB printers).
If you are unsure about this, say N here.
config USB_OTG
bool "OTG support"
depends on PM
default n
help
The most notable feature of USB OTG is support for a
"Dual-Role" device, which can act as either a device
or a host. The initial role is decided by the type of
plug inserted and can be changed later when two dual
role devices talk to each other.
Select this only if your board has Mini-AB/Micro-AB
connector.
config USB_OTG_WHITELIST
bool "Rely on OTG and EH Targeted Peripherals List"
depends on USB
help
If you say Y here, the "otg_whitelist.h" file will be used as a
product whitelist, so USB peripherals not listed there will be
rejected during enumeration. This behavior is required by the
USB OTG and EH specification for all devices not on your product's
"Targeted Peripherals List". "Embedded Hosts" are likewise
allowed to support only a limited number of peripherals.
config USB_OTG_BLACKLIST_HUB
bool "Disable external hubs"
depends on USB_OTG || EXPERT
help
If you say Y here, then Linux will refuse to enumerate
external hubs. OTG hosts are allowed to reduce hardware
and software costs by not supporting external hubs. So
are "Embedded Hosts" that don't offer OTG support.
config USB_OTG_FSM
tristate "USB 2.0 OTG FSM implementation"
depends on USB
select USB_OTG
select USB_PHY
help
Implements OTG Finite State Machine as specified in On-The-Go
and Embedded Host Supplement to the USB Revision 2.0 Specification.
config USB_ULPI_BUS
tristate "USB ULPI PHY interface support"
depends on USB_SUPPORT
help
UTMI+ Low Pin Interface (ULPI) is specification for a commonly used
USB 2.0 PHY interface. The ULPI specification defines a standard set
of registers that can be used to detect the vendor and product which
allows ULPI to be handled as a bus. This module is the driver for that
bus.
The ULPI interfaces (the buses) are registered by the drivers for USB
controllers which support ULPI register access and have ULPI PHY
attached to them. The ULPI PHY drivers themselves are normal PHY
drivers.
ULPI PHYs provide often functions such as ADP sensing/probing (OTG
protocol) and USB charger detection.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
be called ulpi.
