That only traces file related calls and not interrupts. I stand by either using

The easiest way is to take a look for your device's id in lsusb and see if the

Greetings All,
I'm a little rough with how function pointers work in C. I assumed there
similar to way C++ stores virtual functions internally in the vtable for
virtual functions by the compiler and checks the table at runtime. Please let
me know if I'm wrong in my understanding.
