Serial over USB generally refers to those RS232 to USB dongles (for adding a com port to a laptop without legacy ports, etc. - like this thing: http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10262122&loc=101&sp=1) or for generic USB to UART-like-interface chips used to update a legacy RS232-capable board to a USB device. Serial-over-usb (see the serial.c gadget code and the host drivers in drivers/usb/serial) is often used in actual products (dongles, PDAs, etc). It's not a test tool at all.
Basically if you load g_serial.ko on top of your gadget driver (ie net2280.ko) and plug into a host, you'll pop up as a serial device such as /dev/ttySXXXX. Quite different from testusb which is only really used to test USB hardware and low-level firmware/drivers and is then replaced with "real" code for a real product. regards, alex 박호상 wrote: > Hello. > I have heard the serial over USB. > Maybe, I guess that is test tool just like ‘testusb’. > However, I don’t know the difference between serial over USB and > ‘testusb’, and what is serial over USB exactly. > > What is the serial over USB? > And how can I get the information about serial over USB? > Any information (reference or web page....and so on) is OK. > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training. > Attend Black Hat Briefings & Training, Las Vegas July 24-29 - > digital self defense, top technical experts, no vendor pitches, > unmatched networking opportunities.
