+UMS
+###
+
+UMS (USB Mass Storage) functionality, allows a connected USB host to
+access U-Boot block devices and enable file transfer. This is useful
+for accessing storage devices such as  SD or MMC from a USB host such
+as host PC.
+
+Configuration Requirements
+==========================
+
+To enable UMS support, following configuration needs to be set in
+the U-Boot config file:
+
+.. code-block:: kconfig
+
+   CONFIG_CMD_USB_MASS_STORAGE=y
+
+Usage
+=====
+
+To use the UMS command:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   => ums <dev> [<interface>] <devnum[:partnum]>
+
+**dev**
+
+USB gadget device number.
+
+**interface**
+
+Interface for accessing block device (MMC, SATA, ....), default is MMC.
+
+**devnum**
+
+Device number for selected interface.
+
+**partnum**
+
+Partition number for selected device, default is 0. 0 to expose all
+partitions.
+
+Example usage:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   => mmc list
+   mmc@fa10000: 0 (eMMC)
+   mmc@fa00000: 1 (SD)
+   => ums 0 mmc 1
+   UMS: LUN 0, dev mmc 1, hwpart 0, sector 0x0, count 0x3b72400
+
+This example exposes the SD card (mmc 1) as a USB mass storage device
+to the connected host PC. The host PC can then mount and access the
+storage device for file transfer. Press Ctrl+C to exit UMS command and
+return to the U-boot prompt.
+
+.. note::
+
+   The USB controller must be in peripheral mode for UMS to work. If
+   the controller is in host mode, then reconfigure it to
+   peripheral mode before using the UMS command. The USB controller can
+   be configured to operate in peripheral mode by changing the value of
+   ``dr_mode`` property of USB controller node in device tree to ``peripheral``.
