In Part I of this article, I briefly mentioned the generic USB driver in the context of getting a USB device to communicate through it easily, with no custom kernel programming. Unfortunately, I ...

In my last column [see LJ December 2002], we covered the serial layer in the 2.5 (hopefully soon to be 2.6) kernel tree. We mentioned in passing that a USB-to-serial driver layer in the kernel helps ...

USB to UART(s) chip ch342/ch343/ch344/ch346/ch347/ch9101/ch9102/ch9103/ch9104/ch9111/ch9114 are fully compliant to the Communications Device Class (CDC) standard ...

USB serial driver for USB to UART chip ch340, ch341, etc. In fact Linux mainline kernels have built-in ch341 serial driver since kernel version 2.6.24. The location ...

USB drivers included in the Linux kernel are rife with security flaws that in some cases can be exploited to run untrusted code and take over users' computers. The vast majority of these ...
