Checkout Documentation/usb (in your kernel source tree). You'll find a
quoted
bunch of files starting with the word gadget which describe the various
gadget drivers and how to use them.

Thanks for the reference, I gone through the configfs. And tried creating
it, but
it's not working. I am using x86, is that configfs method configures the
usb
controllers to behave a device ? because nothing is there
in /sys/class/udc/.
Yes - it requires that the USB controller be able to behave as a device.
I've only used this on SoC's that had that capability (like gumstix or
BeagleBone) and not on a desktop.
