As Raymond Chen would say, what if two devices did this? Suppose you have Widget A, which is squatting on ID 1234:5678, and Widget B, which is also squatting on ID 1234:5678. You plug both on the same computer. How would the driver, no matter whether kernel or userspace, know a newly plugged device with that ID is Widget A and not Widget B?
- Kliment 8y agoThat's an argument for coordination between squatters, not against squatting.
