2016-11-07USB: fix typo in documentationLuis de Bethencourt

2016-10-27USB: update intro of documentationOliver Neukum
It does no good to mention The 2.4 kernel series and neglect USB 3.x and XHCI. Also with type C and micro/mini USB we better not talk about the shape of connectors.

2016-03-05usb: devio: Add ioctl to disallow detaching kernel USB drivers.Reilly Grant
The new USBDEVFS_DROP_PRIVILEGES ioctl allows a process to voluntarily relinquish the ability to issue other ioctls that may interfere with other processes and drivers that have claimed an interface on the device. This commit also includes a simple utility to be able to test the ioctl, located at Documentation/usb/usbdevfs-drop-permissions.c Example (with qemu-kvm's input device): $ lsusb ... Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0627:0001 Adomax Technology Co., Ltd $ usb-devices ...

2014-09-23usb: hub: rename khubd to hub_wq in documentation and commentsPetr Mladek
USB hub has started to use a workqueue instead of kthread. Let's update the documentation and comments here and there. This patch mostly just replaces "khubd" with "hub_wq". There are only few exceptions where the whole sentence was updated. These more complicated changes can be found in the following files: Documentation/usb/hotplug.txt drivers/net/usb/usbnet.c drivers/usb/core/hcd.c drivers/usb/host/ohci-hcd.c drivers/usb/host/xhci.c Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.cz> Acked-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2005-10-28[PATCH] usb doc: fix kernel-doc warningRandy Dunlap

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
