Hello

We don’t have experience with the USB UVC gadget driver.

Our kernel sources do contain the driver, however our standard kernel configuration does not enable the driver, neither built in nor as a module.

So you will have to reconfigure the kernel with the relevant options and deploy kernel and modules to the module.
