It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than by bus. When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking maintainer. Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into drivers/pci/net.

This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
|
||
with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
|
||
that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
|
||
better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
|
||
|
||
The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
|
||
|
||
- Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
|
||
cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
|
||
"Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
|
||
on specialized chips from many suppliers.
|
||
|
||
- An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
|
||
These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
|
||
others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
|
||
CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
|
||
|
||
- Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
|
||
uses this driver framework.
|
||
|
||
The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
|
||
a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
|
||
two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
|
||
(CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
