Unfortunately this is not the answer. First of all, USB does not use the async_* infrastructure, so it does not do anything. But more importantly... USB *CANNOT* do this fundamental operation. USB does not have the capability to know when you have seen all devices that are connected. Devices just show up a random amount of time after you turn the power on for the bus.... there's no "and now we've seen all" operation. -- Arjan van de Ven Intel Open Source Technology Centre For development, discussion and tips for power savings, visit http://www.lesswatts.org -- 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
