Apologies, I could not make my point clear. We have a usb-function
capability on our arm based board. We want to expose our device as a
mass storage device. We understand that we will have to write a usb
function driver for the same. The usb function can expose itself like
a serial class, mass-storage class, audio class etc. We want to
demonstrate usb as a mass storage device. So how do we proceed on
this?

Thanks.
