* [PATCH] USB: USB authentication statesDavid Brownell2006-01-311-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Another hook needed for wireless USB: there are states associated with the device authentication protocol. Wireless devices must authenticate using the host system's keystore. Note that wired connections could also use this authentication protocol, if for no other reason than to support the most secure "simple" key exchange protocols for wireless devices.

* [PATCH] headers: include linux/types.h for usb_ch9.hGOTO Masanori2005-06-281-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch for usb_ch9.h includes linux/types.h instead of asm/types.h so that __le16 and so on is explicitly defined. It also cleans up non standard // comment.

* [PATCH] USB: wireless usb <linux/usb_ch9.h> declarationsDavid Brownell2005-06-271-7/+176
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This provides declarations for new requests, descriptors, and bitfields as defined in the Wireless USB 1.0 spec. Device support will involve a new "Wire Adapter" device class, connecting a USB Host to a cluster of wireless USB devices. There will be two adapter types: * Host Wireless Adapter (HWA): the downstream link is wireless, which connects a wireless USB host to wireless USB devices (not unlike like a hub) including to the second type of adapter. * Device Wireless Adapter (DWA): the upstream link is wireless, for connecting existing USB devices through wired links into the cluser. All wireless USB devices will need persistent (and secure!) key storage, and it's probable that Linux -- or device firmware -- will need to be involved with that to bootstrap the initial secure key exchange. Some user interface is required in that initial key exchange, and since the most "hands-off" one is a wired USB link, I suspect wireless operation will usually not be the only mode for wireless USB devices. (Plus, devices can recharge batteries using wired USB...) All other key exchange protocols need error prone user interactions, like copying and/or verifying keys. It'll likely be a while before we have commercial Wireless USB hardware, much less Linux implementations that know how to use it.

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!
