It's possible from a Linux driver (NDISwrapper is a Linux driver) to call a Windows driver because they both execute in the same address space (the same as the Linux kernel). If the Windows driver is composed of layered drivers (for example one for Ethernet above one for USB) it's the upper layer driver which is called, and this upper layer ...
lsusb [3] is a similar command for USB buses and devices. To make use of all the features of this program, a system needs to use Linux kernel which supports the /proc/bus/usb interface (e.g., Linux kernel 2.3.15 or newer). Example output on a Linux system:
Universal USB Installer (UUI) is an open-source live Linux USB flash drive creation software. It allows users to create a bootable live USB flash drive using an ISO image from a supported Linux distribution , antivirus utility, system tool, or Microsoft Windows installer.
The Remote Network Driver Interface Specification (RNDIS) is a Microsoft proprietary protocol used mostly on top of USB. [1] It provides a virtual Ethernet link to most versions of the Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD operating systems. Multiple revisions of a partial RNDIS specification are available from Microsoft, but Windows implementations have ...
LinuxLive USB Creator is a free Microsoft Windows program that creates Live USB systems from installed images of supported Linux distributions. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Due to time constraints the sole developer, Thibaut, halted support and updates for LinuxLive December 22nd, 2015.
USB 3.0 SuperSpeed – host controller (xHCI) hardware support, no software overhead for out-of-order commands; USB 2.0 High-speed – enables command queuing in USB 2.0 drives; Streams were added to the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed protocol for supporting UAS out-of-order completions USB 3.0 host controller (xHCI) provides hardware support for streams
The Linux API is composed out of the System Call Interface of the Linux kernel, the GNU C Library, libcgroup, [3] libdrm, libalsa and libevdev [4] (by freedesktop.org).. libusb is a library that provides applications with access for controlling data transfer to and from USB devices on Unix and non-Unix systems, without the need for kernel-mode drivers.
NDIS Miniport drivers can also use Windows Driver Model interfaces to control network hardware. [19] Another driver type is NDIS Intermediate Driver. Intermediate drivers sit in-between the MAC and IP layers and can control all traffic being accepted by the NIC. In practice, intermediate drivers implement both miniport and protocol interfaces.
