Hi,

I am trying to write a usb device driver that is loaded as a module into the
kernel. The user mode application that communicates with the driver is
supposed to be running in the background all the time, and send/receive
commands whenever the device is connected.

My question is how do I find out in the application whether the device is
connected or not? I have created through mknod a link to the driver and use
the read/write/ioctl commands. However, if I disconnect the device while the
application is running, it crashes and sometimes the kernel gets stuck and I
need to reboot it. I am using RedHat 7.1 distribution, with kernel v2.4.2.

I would be grateful if someone could help me with this.

Thanks in advance,
Amira.
