Add cdceem(4) driver, for virtual ethernet devices compliant with Communication Device Class Ethernet Emulation Model (CDC EEM). The driver supports both the device, and host side operation; there is a new USB template (#11) for the former. This enables communication with virtual USB NIC provided by iLO 5, as found in new HPE Proliant servers. Reviewed by: hselasky Relnotes: yes Sponsored by: Hewlett Packard Enterprise

.Sh NAME | ||
.Nm cdceem | ||
.Nd "USB Communication Device Class Ethernet Emulation Model (CDC EEM) driver" | ||
.Sh SYNOPSIS | ||
To compile this driver into the kernel, | ||
place the following lines in your | ||
kernel configuration file: | ||
.Bd -ragged -offset indent | ||
.Cd "device uhci" | ||
.Cd "device ohci" | ||
.Cd "device usb" | ||
.Cd "device miibus" | ||
.Cd "device uether" | ||
.Cd "device cdceem" | ||
.Ed | ||
.Pp | ||
Alternatively, to load the driver as a | ||
module at boot time, place the following line in | ||
.Xr loader.conf 5 : | ||
.Bd -literal -offset indent | ||
if_cdceem_load="YES" | ||
.Ed | ||
.Sh DESCRIPTION | ||
The | ||
.Nm | ||
driver provides support for USB devices based on the USB Communication | ||
Device Class Ethernet Emulation Model (CDC EEM) specification. | ||
.Pp | ||
The driver works on both host, and device-side; see | ||
.Xr usb_template 4 | ||
for details. | ||
.Pp | ||
The USB device appears as a regular network interface on both sides, | ||
transporting Ethernet frames. | ||
.Pp | ||
For more information on configuring this device, see | ||
.Xr ifconfig 8 . | ||
.Pp | ||
The | ||
.Nm | ||
driver does not support different media types or options. | ||
.Sh SYSCTL VARIABLES | ||
The following variables are available as both | ||
.Xr sysctl 8 | ||
variables and | ||
.Xr loader 8 | ||
tunables: | ||
.Bl -tag -width indent | ||
.It Va hw.usb.cdceem.debug | ||
Verbosity level for log messages from the | ||
.Nm | ||
driver. | ||
Set to 0 to disable logging or 1 to warn about potential problems. | ||
Larger values enable debugging output. | ||
Defaults to 1. | ||
.It Va hw.usb.cdceem.send_echoes | ||
If set to 1, the driver will send an Echo EEM packet when the | ||
interface is brought up. | ||
While responding to Echo is mandatory, some devices cannot handle it. | ||
Only use for debugging. | ||
Defaults to 0. | ||
.It Va hw.usb.cdceem.send_fake_crc | ||
If set to 1, the driver will use 0xdeadbeef as the CRC value | ||
for outgoing Data EEM packets. | ||
Only use for debugging. | ||
Defaults to 0. | ||
