I have got the kernel log it says about usb but how can access it . there is no device registration in /dev ..? how access this..?
and configured and anabledin kernel
Under "Device Drivers"

Linux does not create /dev/ file for USB modem

My USB modem called Anydata W150. My goal is to send AT commands to the modem via USB and get some information from it.
When I'm connecting the USB modem, first of all it connects for a few seconds as /dev/ttyACM0,
then changes it's mode to flash drive mode and then becomes an internet interface with address like enp0s...
Here is my lsusb output.

I googled a lot and found out, that I need to create udev rules. I created rules file with path /etc/udev/rules.d/99-usb-modem.rules
Contents of the file:
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="enp0s*", SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0e8d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2004", SYMLINK+="/dev/ttyUSB10"
So, I'm trying to create a symlink, but it does nothing. I tried a lot of variations of this file and it's contents but nothing is working.
Also, I tried to load drivers via modprobe command. Command syntax was like this:
# modprobe rndis_host
And also tried this with defining the ID from lsusb.

How to configure driver in Buildroot for Moxa UPort 1110 USB serial converter?

I have a board with an embedded system that is buildroot based. In "make linux-menuconfig" I would like to add the appropriate drivers for the USB-RS232 adapter "Moxa UPORT 1110". I marked in "make linux-menuconfig":
Device Drivers-> USB support -> USB Serial Converter support-> USB MoxaUPORT Serial Driver
after connecting the adapter with the device, linux will not recognize the device.
When I check "lsusb" I get:
lsusb
Bus 001 Device 006: ID 110a:1110
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002
The board does not see the producer's name etc. On my Ubuntu computer I get after plugging in usb and typing "lsusb ::
Bus 001 Device 036: ID 110a:1110 Moxa Technologies Co., Ltd.
When I check dmesg after plugging in the USB and see:
[ 9752.822985] usb 1-1: USB disconnect, device number 5
[ 9754.605939] usb 1-1: new full-speed USB device number 6 using musb-hdrc
[ 9754.768212] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=110a, idProduct=1110
[ 9754.775263] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[ 9754.782783] usb 1-1: Product: UPort 1110
[ 9754.786903] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: Moxa Technologies Co., Ltd.
should I check any additional settings / drivers in "make linux-menuconfig" to see the USB-R232 adapter?
From looking at the Linux source code, I understand that you enabled the mxuport driver which does not cover the UPORT 1110. However, it looks like the ti_usb_3410_5052 driver does. You can enable it by setting CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_TI.
In the Buildroot sources I see that you must make sure that BR2_PACKAGE_LINUX_FIRMWARE_USB_SERIAL_TI is set in order to include the firmware file (moxa-1110.fw).
So, in make menuconfig enable USB TI 3410/5052 Serial Firmware under Target packages > Hardware handling > Firmware > linux-firmware > USB to Serial Firmware

This disturb me because of sound of plugged/unplugged device, even when sound is muted (I setup 0% volume, and the sound icon in taskbar is grayed)
How to prevent this?
This command seems helps me:

Cross compiling drivers for USB modem

I have a physical card with an IMX6 CPU that runs Linux (a kernel I compiled from source, from the manufacturer's website). I also have a USB Cellular modem dongle that I want to use with the card. However, when I plug the dongle in the card, I get this in dmesg:
[ 29.825491] usb 1-1: new high-speed USB device number 2 using ci_hdrc

It looks like Linux is recognizing the device as a mass storage device (it doubles as a storage device), but not as a modem. When I insert the same dongle into a regular Ubuntu machine, I get this:

I know how to compile modules externally and into the kernel, by choosing them in menuconfig. However, I don't know which modules I should compile for this device, if they are even included in the kernel source. How can I find which modules / drivers to compile?
USB modems often start up as Mass storage devices to allow for driver installation.
You can use software such as USB_ModeSwitch to force it to change modes. (this is likely already installed and working on your Ubuntu system)
Failing that, many will switch modes when their storage is ejected (as by eject).
you can check the sysfs attributes in Ubuntu for the associated driver
in /sys/bus/usb/devices/ and enable that driver in your board kernel configuration.

USB host and device functionality on SBC 6845 board using kernel modules

I am working on SBC 6845(Atmel processor) in linux embedded development. My kernel version is 2.6.30.
This board comes with 2 USB ports(Both with Type A), one can be configured as host and other as USB device.
I have configured these USB modules in kernel. I have burned kernel and file system with necessary modules including USB modules. I have loaded these USB modules through /init.d/rcS file.
When board turns on and I type lsmod on console it shows me these modules loaded.
When I connect board to computer, USB is not detected (device functionality).
When I connect pendrive to board, it is not detected (host functionality).

Any help is welcome!
Your drivers seem well installed. I don't have a straight answer but I work with software-hardware integration very often. Here is what I would do to get more clues. That kind of processor often have pins that are multipurposes. Sometimes, on an evaluation board, they are not configured the way we want by default. You can look at the documentation but also, you can use an Oscilloscope and probe the D+ and D- of the USB. Are they OK when in IDLE? What happen when you connect a device on your host port? The first few things will be done by the USB controller and involves little even no interaction with the software after the controller is configured. If you see the beginning of a negociation (a bunch of 0s and 1s) then, you know your hardware is configured properly and your basic driver is installed and work properly. The result of this will narrow the scope of the problem.
You are missing upper layer drivers. EHCI is only an interface driver, you need device drivers on top of it. Board<-->PC communication is usually done via serial over USB, so for this you need USB Serial driver. In Kernel config go to Device Drivers -> USB Support -> USB Serial Converter support and select driver according to the chip on your board/cable.
Here's an example dmesg dump seen when board is connected to the Ubuntu laptop:
[ 3469.923779] usb 2-1.2: new full-speed USB device number 5 using
ehci_hcd
[ 3470.019145] cp210x 2-1.2:1.0: cp210x converter detected
[ 3470.091614] usb 2-1.2: reset full-speed USB device number 5 using
ehci_hcd
[ 3470.184995] usb 2-1.2: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB0
I believe similar situation is with pendrive too - upper layer driver is missing.
