While I am all for crazy debugfs interfaces, I would _strongly_ suggest not doing that here for the main API to the device. I know Android is trying to prevent any new devices from even enabling debugfs, and as the file system requires root permissions by default, you are forcing any user of your new api to run as root, which is not a good idea either. Given that all you are doing here is a single usb control message, why does this even need to be a kernel driver at all? Can't you do the same thing from userspace with a simple libusb/usbfs program? Or even a simple script? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
