USB_GADGET_GET_STRIN(9) | Kernel Mode Gadget API | USB_GADGET_GET_STRIN(9) |
NAME¶
usb_gadget_get_string - fill out a string descriptor
SYNOPSIS¶
int usb_gadget_get_string(struct usb_gadget_strings * table, int id, u8 * buf);
ARGUMENTS¶
table
id
buf
DESCRIPTION¶
Finds the UTF-8 string matching the ID, and converts it into a string descriptor in utf16-le. Returns length of descriptor (always even) or negative errno
If your driver needs stings in multiple languages, you´ll probably “switch (wIndex) { ... }” in your ep0 string descriptor logic, using this routine after choosing which set of UTF-8 strings to use. Note that US-ASCII is a strict subset of UTF-8; any string bytes with the eighth bit set will be multibyte UTF-8 characters, not ISO-8859/1 characters (which are also widely used in C strings).
