Introduction
The AXI USB device IP is an USB device controller IP. It has no support for HOST or OTG mode. This IP can be instantiated on FPGA or Zynq /Ultrascale plus PL. This page describes the usage of the AXI USB device IP linux driver.HW/IP Features
- Compliant with the USB 2.0 Specification
- Supports High Speed, Full Speed and Low speed
Features supported by driver
- All the HW/IP features are supported by the driver
...
- The driver is supported/validated for mass storage gadget only on Zynq and ZU+.
Kernel Configuration
- Enable the AXI USB linux driver in kernel configuration

- compile the kernel and modules. Copy kernel Image and compiled modules to SD card.
- Copy following to SD card: BOOT.bin which has PL bitstream with AXI USB device IP, FSBL and U-Boot. dtb, uramdisk.img (All are provided in the attachment).
- Boot ZC702 with SD card.
Follow these steps on the board after linux boots :
Code Block theme Midnight dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/mydev count=5 bs=1M insmod xilinx_udc.ko insmod configfs.ko //NOTE: configfs.ko is generated under fs/configfs/ in linux source insmod libcomposite.ko insmod usb_f_mass_storage.ko insmod g_mass_storage.ko file=/tmp/mydev removable=1
- Connect the usb cable to host PC(windows/linux). Host shows the gadget as a mass storage device with 5MB capacity.
