4. Technical Description
This project provides a driver, usbecm(7D), to support devices of USB
CDC (Communication Device Class) subclass ECM (Ethernet Control Model).
The specification to support is ECMv1.2,
http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/CDC1.2_WMC1.1.zip. This
specification defines the protocol to exchange Ethernet framed data
between the devices and the host. An ECM device presents itself as a
NIC device to the host.
All devices compatible with ECMv1.2 can be driven by usbecm(7D).
This driver will use standard Solaris USBA interfaces and public GLDv3
interfaces (PSARC 2009/638). The regular network interface administrative
commands, such as ifconfig(1M), dladm(1M) etc, can be used to manage
interfaces presented by usbecm(7D).
The package name SUNWuecm and driver name usbecm are "Committed".
Requested binding is patch/micro.
