Devtab Entries

Presence

The devtab entries are optional. If the USB device is accessed primarily by class-specific code such as the USB-
ethernet package and that package uses the USB-specific API directly, the devtab entries are redundant. Even if
application code does need to access the USB device, the non-blocking API may be more convenient than the
blocking I/O provided via the devtab entries. In these cases the devtab entries serve no useful purpose, but they still
impose a memory overhead. It is possible to suppress the presence of these entries by disabling the configuration
option
