device drivers. This option alone does not add any kernel code.

|
|
A human interface device (HID) is a type of computer device that
|
|
interacts directly with and takes input from humans. The term "HID"
|
|
most commonly used to refer to the USB-HID specification, but other
|
|
devices (such as, but not strictly limited to, Bluetooth) are
|
|
designed using HID specification (this involves certain keyboards,
|
|
mice, tablets, etc). This option compiles into kernel the generic
|
|
HID layer code (parser, usages, etc.), which can then be used by
|
|
transport-specific HID implementation (like USB or Bluetooth).
|
|
|
|
For docs and specs, see http://www.usb.org/developers/hidpage/
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say Y
|
|
|
|
config HID_DEBUG
|
|
bool "HID debugging support"
|
|
default y if !EMBEDDED
|
|
depends on HID
|
|
---help---
|
|
This option lets the HID layer output diagnostics about its internal
|
|
state, resolve HID usages, dump HID fields, etc. Individual HID drivers
|
|
use this debugging facility to output information about individual HID
|
|
devices, etc.
|
|
|
|
This feature is useful for those who are either debugging the HID parser
|
|
or any HID hardware device.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N
|
|
|
|
config HIDRAW
|
|
bool "/dev/hidraw raw HID device support"
|
|
depends on HID
|
|
---help---
|
|
Say Y here if you want to support HID devices (from the USB
|
|
specification standpoint) that aren't strictly user interface
|
|
devices, like monitor controls and Uninterruptable Power Supplies.
|
|
|
|
This module supports these devices separately using a separate
|
|
event interface on /dev/hidraw.
|
|
|
|
There is also a /dev/hiddev configuration option in the USB HID
|
|
configuration menu. In comparison to hiddev, this device does not process
|
|
the hid events at all (no parsing, no lookups). This lets applications
|
|
to work on raw hid events when they want to, and avoid using transport-specific
|
|
userspace libhid/libusb libraries.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say Y.
