Hi, we have an application that shares an USB device by protecting bulk read/writes with CLAIMINTERFACE/RELEASEINTERFACE ioctl calls. That worked fine until recently when device nodes for the endpoints where introduced. What happens is that our quick switching between the applications causes a flood of udev events for the add/remove of the endpoint device nodes. This initially lead to a very unresponsive machine where udevd consumed all of the CPU time. In the meantime I mitigated the effect by adding some explicit udev ignore rules for the endpoints. But still each started instance of our application adds about 5% udevd CPU load on a 2GHz Celeron.
So, is there a way to turn off the endpoint device node creation/deletion via a udev config or a kernel ioctl?
