Our application is using the FT232BM and I'm not sure the FTDI_SIO
module is designed for it!


The module works fine with the FT232BM chip and I talk from personal experience here :)

The only thing the driver doesn't support AFAIK is the bit-bang mode of this chip, because this mode doesn't fit in a serial driver architecture.

If you have a custom device with your own VID/PID, just edit the source at:

/drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c

and add an entry with your data to the array "id_table_FT232BM".

You probably can get more speed by using this driver than you would ever using libusb.

This may seem like a silly question, but why don't you use the FTDI
serial driver that is already in the kernel?

Best regards,
