This patch adds the vstusb driver to the drivers/usb/misc directory.
This driver provides support for Vernier Software &amp; Technology
spectrometers, all made by Ocean Optics. The driver provides both IOCTL
and read()/write() methods for sending raw data to spectrometers across
the bulk channel. Each method allows for a configured timeout.

<id>88d987d6db2a14b191f4eb21cc623dae31e28e9d</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch removes the auerswald USB driver from the linux kernel
2.6.26.

This driver was included into the kernel mainly to connect to the ISDN
framework. This was done in linux 2.4.x. For 2.6.x, due to the fragile
and moving ISDN support, this connection was never realized, and the
only use of this driver was for device configuration. In the age of DSL,
the demand of ISDN support is getting very low.

Meanwhile, with the advent of libusb, an userspace driver was done for
the device configuration which works fine for linux and mac. (Thanks to
the libusb developers!). The userspace driver is downloadable from the
auerswald web site.

So this driver is obsolete now and has to be removed. Many thanks to all
developers which helped me to bring this driver up and working.

<title>USB: Firmware loader driver for USB Apple iSight camera</title>

<content type='text'>
Uninitialised Apple iSight drivers present with a distinctive USB ID.
Once firmware has been uploaded, they disconnect and reconnect with a
new ID. At this point they can be driven by the uvcvideo driver. As this
is unique to the Apple cameras and not functionality shared by any other
UVC devices, it makes sense to provide the firmware loading
functionality in a separate driver. This driver will read an isight.fw
file extracted from the Apple driver using the tools at
http://bersace03.free.fr/ift/ and upload it to the camera. It will also
handle the case where the device loses its firmware during hibernation
and must have it reloaded.

A simple driver to turn on the charging capability of a USB BlackBerry
device when it is plugged into the machine.  It does not bind to the
device, so all userspace programs can still sync properly with it.

Note, if CONFIG_USB_SUSPEND is enabled, it can play havoc with this
device as the power to the port will be shut down.  This device id will
have to be added to the global blacklist table when it is created.

It's not a input driver, so it doesn't belong in the input directory.

<title>USB: ftdi-elan: client driver for ELAN Uxxx adapters</title>

<id>a5c66e4b2418278786a025a5bd9625f485b2087a</id>
<content type='text'>
This "ftdi-elan" module is one half of the "driver" for
ELAN's Uxxx series adapters which are USB to PCMCIA CardBus
adapters. Currently only the U132 adapter is available and
it's module is called "u132-hcd".

When the USB hot plug subsystem detects a Uxxx series adapter
it should load this module.

Upon a successful device probe() the jtag device file interface
is created and the status workqueue started up.

The jtag device file interface exists for the purpose of
updating the firmware in the Uxxx series adapter, but as
yet it had never been used.

The status workqueue initializes the Uxxx and then sits there
polling the Uxxx until a supported PCMCIA CardBus device is
detected it will start the command and respond workqueues
and then load the module that handles the device. This will
initially be only the u132-hcd module. The status workqueue
then just polls the Uxxx looking for card ejects.

The command and respond workqueues implement a command
sequencer for communicating with the firmware on the other
side of the FTDI chip in the Uxxx. This "ftdi-elan" module
exports some functions to interface with the sequencer.

Note that this module is a USB client driver.

Note that the "u132-hcd" module is a (cut-down OHCI)
host controller.

Thus we have a topology with the parent of a host controller
being a USB client! This really stresses the USB subsystem
semaphore/mutex handling in the module removal.
