My question is whether that assignment survives standby of the PC. Reading https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/336037/mapping-of-usb-device-changes-afer-rtcwakeup https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/336037/mapping-of-u..., I’m not sure it does.
Certainly, a bus scan has to happen to detect whether devices (including USB hubs) got unplugged or plugged in during standby, so if that scanning isn’t guaranteed to always produce the same result (e.g. because of jitter in the timing when various devices come online), I doubt that’s guaranteed to produce 100% identical information.
It’s a question, though. I don’t know enough of how this work to definitely answer that.
