What do you exactly mean by "host drivers"?? Are you referring to USB class drivers? These sit on top of the HCI drivers and implement class specific functionality. The HCI driver directly interacts with the underlying h/w...and the class drivers interact with connected devices via this layer. THe class drivers implement specific USB classes like HID, CDC (ACM/ECM etc), mass storage etc etc HTH, -mandeep On Sun, Jan 18, 2009 at 12:48 PM, niamathullah sharief <sharie...@yahoo.co.in> wrote: > Hello, > > I know that modules "usbcore" and "host drivers" are needed to make USB > port to work....but i dont why this host drivers really do...why it is > needed?can anyone tell me..please > > ________________________________ > Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy!
