Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to use the USB file backed storage driver with
storage media that can be installed or removed at any time (but hopefully,
only when the system isn't using the media).

We currently get a hardware interrupt when the media is inserted and
removed, which is monitored by a driver.  We have an application blocked on
an ioctl() call to the driver waiting for a media change event.  We the
event occurs, the application takes care of unmount / mount issues.  We
would also like this application to add or remove the media from the list of
media the USB file backed storage driver is exposing.

Does the USB file backed storage driver support this use model, or do I need
to extend the driver?  If the driver needs to be extended, any suggestions
on how it is done?
