I've sketched following plan for gadget conversion:
1. Each u-boot command (dfu, ums, thor and in the future rockchip I
hope), which uses gadget goes through g_dnl_{register|unregister}, so
the idea is to add this driver first to DM.
2. Afterwards, we could add functions as children of g_dnl.
This would be easily modeled in Kconfig (to have g_dnl - gadget - menu
with submenu to chose the USB function - e.g. f_dfu*).
However, we also need to take care of several UDC (USB device
controller) drivers including also the "composite" usb layer.
This would be tougher to do since there are many udc drivers - but it
should be possible to separate DM's UDC drivers and g_dnl/function
code.
Another problem is that some archs use gadgets (RNDIS?) without g_dnl
and composite - on top of UDC driver (like musb).....
For example:
board/ti/beagle/beagle.c -> board_eth_init()
|
\|/
drivers/usb/gadget/ether.c -> usb_eth_initialize()
[ether.c seems to partially support DM]
|
\|/
(also in the ether.c)
_usb_eth_init() in which we loop on
usb_gadget_handle_interrupts()
From what I see, the ether.c now supports DM and legacy code, so some
work has been already done for DM....
