The USB standard defines a mechanism of discovering USB device functionality
through a mechanism of descriptors. After the device is attached and
initialized by the host stack, it's possible to retrieve it's descriptor
through descriptors. After the device is attached and
initialized by the host stack, it's possible to retrieve its descriptor
(the device descriptor). It contains elements such as product and vendor IDs,
bus number and device number (address) on the bus.

In gousb, the Device struct represents a USB device. The Device struct’s Desc
field contains all known information about the device.
Among other information in the device descriptor is a list of configuration
descriptors, accessible through Device.Desc.Configs.

The USB standard allows one physical USB device to switch between different
sets of behaviors, or working modes, by selecting one of the offered configs
(each device has at least one).
This allows the same device to sometimes present itself as e.g. a 3G modem,
and sometimes a flash drive. Configs are mutually exclusive, each device
and sometimes as a flash drive with the drivers for that 3G modem.
Configs are mutually exclusive, each device
can have only one active config at a time. Switching the active config performs
a light-weight device reset. Each config in the device descriptor has
a unique identification number.
