Update the default USB device authorization mode help text so that the meaning of the option and it's available values are described more accurately.

bool "USB announce new devices"
|
|
help
|
|
Say Y here if you want the USB core to always announce the
|
|
idVendor, idProduct, Manufacturer, Product, and SerialNumber
|
|
strings for every new USB device to the syslog. This option is
|
|
usually used by distro vendors to help with debugging and to
|
|
let users know what specific device was added to the machine
|
|
in what location.
|
|
|
|
If you do not want this kind of information sent to the system
|
|
log, or have any doubts about this, say N here.

bool "Enable USB persist by default"

|
|
help
|
|
Say N here if you don't want USB power session persistence
|
|
enabled by default. If you say N it will make suspended USB
|
|
devices that lose power get reenumerated as if they had been
|
|
unplugged, causing any mounted filesystems to be lost. The
|
|
persist feature can still be enabled for individual devices
|
|
through the power/persist sysfs node. See
|
|
Documentation/driver-api/usb/persist.rst for more info.
|
|
|
|
If you have any questions about this, say Y here, only say N
|
|
if you know exactly what you are doing.

config USB_FEW_INIT_RETRIES
|
|
bool "Limit USB device initialization to only a few retries"
|
|
help
|
|
When a new USB device is detected, the kernel tries very hard
|
|
to initialize and enumerate it, with lots of nested retry loops.
|
|
This almost always works, but when it fails it can take a long time.
|
|
This option tells the kernel to make only a few retry attempts,
|
|
so that the total time required for a failed initialization is
|
|
no more than 30 seconds (as required by the USB OTG spec).
|
|
|
|
Say N here unless you require new-device enumeration failure to
|
|
occur within 30 seconds (as might be needed in an embedded
|
|
application).
|
|
|
|
config USB_DYNAMIC_MINORS
|
|
bool "Dynamic USB minor allocation"
|
|
help
|
|
If you say Y here, the USB subsystem will use dynamic minor
|
|
allocation for any device that uses the USB major number.
|
|
This means that you can have more than 16 of a single type
|
|
of device (like USB printers).
|
|
|
|
If you are unsure about this, say N here.

bool "OTG support"

|
|
help
|
|
The most notable feature of USB OTG is support for a
|
|
"Dual-Role" device, which can act as either a device
|
|
or a host. The initial role is decided by the type of
|
|
plug inserted and can be changed later when two dual
|
|
role devices talk to each other.
|
|
|
|
Select this only if your board has Mini-AB/Micro-AB
|
|
connector.

config USB_OTG_PRODUCTLIST
|
|
bool "Rely on OTG and EH Targeted Peripherals List"
|
|
depends on USB
|
|
help
|
|
If you say Y here, the "otg_productlist.h" file will be used as a
|
|
product list, so USB peripherals not listed there will be
|
|
rejected during enumeration. This behavior is required by the
|
|
USB OTG and EH specification for all devices not on your product's
|
|
"Targeted Peripherals List". "Embedded Hosts" are likewise
|
|
allowed to support only a limited number of peripherals.

config USB_OTG_DISABLE_EXTERNAL_HUB
|
|
bool "Disable external hubs"
|
|
depends on USB_OTG || EXPERT
|
|
help
|
|
If you say Y here, then Linux will refuse to enumerate
|
|
external hubs. OTG hosts are allowed to reduce hardware
|
|
and software costs by not supporting external hubs. So
|
|
are "Embedded Hosts" that don't offer OTG support.

help
|

The default autosuspend delay in seconds. Can be overridden
|
|
with the usbcore.autosuspend command line or module parameter.
|
|
|
|
The default value Linux has always had is 2 seconds. Change
|

this value if you want a different delay and cannot modify
|

the command line or module parameter.

help
|
|
Select the default USB device authorization mode. Can be overridden
|
|
with usbcore.authorized_default command line or module parameter.
|
|
|
|
This option allows you to choose whether USB devices that are
|
|
connected to the system can be used by default, or if they are
|
|
locked down.
|
|
|
|
With value 0 all connected USB devices with the exception of root
|
|
hub require user space authorization before they can be used.
|
|
|
|
With value 1 (default) no user space authorization is required to
|
|
use connected USB devices.
|
|
|
|
With value 2 all connected USB devices with exception of internal
|
|
USB devices require user space authorization before they can be
|
|
used. Note that in this mode the differentiation between internal
|
|
and external USB devices relies on ACPI, and on systems without
|
|
ACPI selecting value 2 is analogous to selecting value 0.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, keep the default value.
