Hello,

I have a problem where on linux the usbhid module claims my custom device. I used the hid_force_open() function and it is able to release the device and claim it but when I try to use hid_interrupt_read() it says that the device is busy :

NOTICE: hid_force_open(): successfully opened USB device 001/035[0].
TRACE: hid_interrupt_read(): retrieving interrupt report from device 001/035[0] ... WARNING: hid_interrupt_read(): failed to get interrupt read from device 001/035[0]: could not claim interface 0: Device or resource busy

Is there any indication that the usbhid module is still claiming the device after you successfully use hid_force_open()? If so, then usb_detach_kernel_driver_np() is not doing its job, and it might be a libusb question.

Does anyone know how to deal with this (hopefully programically)? I use version 0.2.15+20060325-2.1 (ubuntu 8.04), installed using aptitude.

Thank you,
Gabriel

PS
should I also post on libusb since libhid is built on top of it?

Possibly. I wouldn't advise cross-posting directly - there probably aren't too many people on the libusb list who know much about libhid.

For reference, the source code to hid_force_open() is here:
