+6. HID function
+===============
+
+The function is provided by usb_f_hid.ko module.
+
+Function-specific configfs interface
+------------------------------------
+
+The function name to use when creating the function directory is "hid".
+The HID function provides these attributes in its function directory:
+
+ protocol - HID protocol to use
+ report_desc - data to be used in HID reports, except data
+ passed with /dev/hidg<X>
+ report_length - HID report length
+ subclass - HID subclass to use
+
+For a keyboard the protocol and the subclass are 1, the report_length is 8,
+while the report_desc is:
+
+$ hd my_report_desc

+Testing the HID function
+------------------------
+
+Device:
+- create the gadget
+- connect the gadget to a host, preferably not the one used
+to control the gadget
+- run a program which writes to /dev/hidg<N>, e.g.
+a userspace program found in Documentation/usb/gadget_hid.txt:
+
+$ ./hid_gadget_test /dev/hidg0 keyboard
+
+Host:
+- observe the keystrokes from the gadget
