Hi, I am implementing a driver for Razer USB mice. These mice are standard HID input devices with additional features accessible through USB control commands.
My current prototype driver does this access in userspace via libusb, but this brings all kinds of issues while the kernel driver and other userspace software is also accessing the device concurrently. So I was going to implement a small optional kernel HAL module for this, which exports the device features through sysfs. This module will be an optional extension to the usbmouse HID module. So when disabled in kconfig the code will be no different from current code. If enabled, it would simply call on probe into the razer addon and check if this is a razer mouse. If true, export the sysfs interface. If not, do nothing and don't touch anything of the stuff. Does this sound reasonable or does someone have a better idea for implementing this? -- Greetings Michael. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
