DESCRIPTION
The usb_template module implements various USB templates that are needed when programming an USB device side driver. A USB template consists of an USB device descriptor, one or more USB configuration descriptors, one or more USB interface descriptors, one or more USB endpoint descriptors, USB strings and additional USB descriptors. USB templates are selected using the hw.usb.template sysctl and tunable, or by using the usbconfig(8) set_template subcommand. Changing the hw.usb.template sysctl triggers reenumeration by the USB host; changes to other sysctls may not be visible to the host until reenumeration is performed.

Available templates are:
Value | Description
0 | USB Mass Storage
1 | CDC Ethernet
2 | Media Transfer Protocol (MTP)
3 | USB serial port
4 | USB audio
5 | USB keyboard
6 | USB mouse
7 | USB phone
8 | CDC Ethernet and serial port
9 | USB MIDI

SYSCTL VARIABLES
The following variables are available as both sysctl(8) variables and loader(8) tunables:
