    The Linux API is composed out of the System Call Interface of the Linux kernel, the GNU C Library, libcgroup,[2] libdrm, libalsa and libevdev[3] (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.

    Availability

    [edit | edit source]

    libusb is currently available for Linux, the BSDs, Solaris, OS X, Windows, Android, and Haiku.[4] It is written in C.

    Amongst other applications, the library is used by SANE, the Linux scanner project, in preference to the kernel scanner module, which is restricted to Linux kernel 2.4.
