How-To use the USB Host functionnality of Armadeus boards under Linux.

Controller

  • APF9328DevFull: It is equipped with a USB 2.0 Host controller (ISP1761) featuring three USB high speed ports. The ISP1761 driver is already configured with armadeus version 3. For older versions refer to the how to install USB Host Linux driver for the DevFull page
  • APF27 and APF27Dev: two Host ports are available. The controllers are integrated in the i.MX27 processor. Nothing has to be done to configure the controller. No special operation has to be done to use both USB ports (driver is included in default kernel).

Using USB devices

USB keyboard/mouse (HID: Human Interface Device)

Driver installation

Plug the keyboard

  • you should see on console (here on APF9328 for example):
 usb 1-1.1: new low speed USB device using isp1761 and address 3
 usb 1-1.1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
 input: NOVATEK USB Keyboard as /class/input/input0
 input: USB HID v1.10 Keyboard [NOVATEK USB Keyboard] on usb-platform-1.1
 input: NOVATEK USB Keyboard as /class/input/input1
 input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [NOVATEK USB Keyboard] on usb-platform-1.1
  • To change keyboard keymap (by default US one is used):
 # loadkmap < /etc/i18n/fr.kmap

Plug the mouse

  • you should see on console (here on APF9328 for example):
 usb 1-1.2: new low speed USB device using isp1761 and address 6
 usb 1-1.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
 input: Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse as /class/input/input6
 input: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse] on usb-platform-1.2

USB Flash memory / USB key / USB card reader / USB Hard Drive

Driver installation

Plug the storage device

  • You should see (for example):
 usb 1-1.2: new high speed USB device using isp1761 and address 6
 usb 1-1.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
 scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices
 usb 1-1.2: reset high speed USB device using isp1761 and address 6
 scsi 0:0:0:0: Direct-Access     Hama     Card Reader   CF 1.9C PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS
 sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI removable disk

Additional configuration

  • If /dev/sdaX does not exist, then create it:
 # mknod /dev/sda b 8 0
 # mknod /dev/sda1 b 8 1
 # mknod /dev/sda2 b 8 2
  • Create a mount directory "usbdisk"
 # mkdir -m 777 /mnt/usbdisk

Mount the device

  • Mount the USB Mass Storage device
 # mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk
  • Check what is present on the USB Mass Storage device:
 # ls -al /mnt/usbdisk
  • And if it is well mounted (for example):
 # mount
 rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
 /dev/root on / type jffs2 (rw)
 proc on /proc type proc (rw)
 devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw)
 tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw)
 sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
 /dev/sda1 on /mnt/usbdisk type msdos (rw,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=cp437)
