Hi
I am using Linux-2.6.31-14 based on Ubuntu karmic. I am developing
a proprietary usb driver and was doing my study .
The Linux USB subsystem does not allow non-GPL kernel drivers, sorry.

This can be done from userspace using the proper dbus api call. It's

with the proper vendor and product ids for your device, then plug it in.
No kernel changes needed at all, just have a pair of bulk in/out

Patches are always best, we can review that and go from there.

Hi Greg,
How do you later remove a device created with this new interface? As it
is, I think the existing calls will fail, right?
If I have not missed out anything from hwmon_device_unregister(), it shouldn't
fail.

Hi Greg,
Let me rephrase my question then.
If I am in kernel space and in another device driver and I need to write a log
entry of some sort to another block device, do I just perform an open and
write as if I am in user space?

What are you wanting to do at filter time?
Why just USB disks? What makes them special?
How are you going to determine if a disk is a USB
