Hi,g_udev gives us a list of USB devices present in the system, and not much more then that, where as we

Hi:
I am puzzled by some functions calling in the function : "spice_usb_device_manager_initable_init"
At this block:
/* Do coldplug (detection of already connected devices) */
libusb_get_device_list(priv->context, &priv->coldplug_list);
list = g_udev_client_query_by_subsystem(priv->udev, "usb");
...
...
libusb_free_device_list(priv->coldplug_list, 1);
priv->coldplug_list = NULL;
My questions are as follows:
1. Well, it seems that there are two routines to gather information of the already connected devices :
"libusb_get_device_list" and " g_udev_client_query_by_subsystem " , which is the really for wok one ?
"g_udev_client_query_by_subsystem" seems to be , am I right ?
use libusb for low level device access, so we manage usb devices through a list of libusb_device references,
the only reason we're also using gusb is because it gives us dynamic notification when device get plugged
in / removed.That is not true, the coldplug_list gets used in spice_usb_device_manager_add_dev to not have to
2. So, the second question is, why we gather info to "priv->coldplug_list", as the codes above, it just be freed, and has never been used!
call libusb_get_device_list repeatedly when enumerating devices already plugged in on spice-gtk
startup.
