How to open USB device in user mode via sysfs path ?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello.
I would like to something like:
int fd = open("/sys/bus/usb/devices/5-1/<something>", O_RDWR);
and then use fd for ioctl() calls (submit urbs, etc.)
I was able to do the same on usbfs:
int fd = open("/proc/bus/usb/005/007", O_RDWR);

Now I need to access the USB via sysfs, because not all Linux platforms have usbfs available. I cannot open("/sys/bus/usb/devices/5-1", O_RDWR) because this is a directory :-( What file in this directory (or elsewhere) should be opened for ioctl() ?

Please help.
Thank you in advance.
