Cross-referenced with Linux 7.1 drivers/usb/core/hub.c port event
handling and drivers/usb/core/driver.c device-driver binding.
New daemon (216 lines) that watches USB controllers for device
attachment/detachment and auto-spawns the appropriate class driver.
Architecture:
- Polls /scheme/usb/ every 1000ms for controller directories
- For each controller, enumerates root hub ports
- Reads device descriptors (class/subclass/protocol) via XhciClientHandle
- Maps class to driver binary: HID(0x03)→usbhidd, Storage(0x08)→usbscsid,
Hub(0x09)→usbhubd
- Spawns driver with <scheme> <port> <protocol> arguments
- Tracks spawned Child processes in HashMap<port_path, TrackedDevice>
- Detects disconnection (descriptor read fails) → kills driver + removes
from tracking
- Detects driver exit (try_wait) → removes from tracking
- Skips hub interfaces (usbhubd handles its own children)
Config:
- Added to redbear-mini.toml (inherited by redbear-full)
- Auto-started via 02_usb_hotplug.service (oneshot_async, after base.target
and pcid-spawner)
Driver map supports: HID (0x03), Mass Storage (0x08 with BOT protocol),
Hub (0x09). Additional class drivers extendable via DRIVER_MAP constant.
