在本文将使用libudev库来访问hidraw的设备。通过libudev库，我们可以查询设备的厂家ID(Vendor ID, VID)，产品ID(Product ID, PID)，序列号和设备字符串等而不需要打开设备。进一步，libudev可以告诉我们在/dev目录下设备节点的具体位置路径，为应用程序提供一种具有足够鲁棒性而又和系统厂家独立的访问设备的方式。使用libudev库，需要包含libudev.h头文件，并且在编译时加上-ludev告诉编译器去链接udev库。
将列出当前连接在系统中的所有hidraw设备，并且输出它们的设备节点路径、生产商、序列号等信息。
为了获取这些信息，需要创建一个udev_enumerate对象，其中“hidraw”字符串作为过滤条件，
libudev将返回所有匹配这个过滤字符串的udev_device对象。
这个列子的步骤如下：
1、 初始化库，获取一个struct udev句柄
2、枚举设备
3、对找到的匹配设备输出它的节点名称，找到实际USB设备的起始节点，打印出USB设备的IDs和序列号等，最后解引用设备对象
4、解引用枚举对象
5、解引用udev对象
具体代码如下:
#include <libudev.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <locale.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main (void)
{
struct udev *udev;
struct udev_enumerate *enumerate;
struct udev_list_entry *devices, *dev_list_entry;
struct udev_device *dev;
/* Create the udev object */
udev = udev_new();
if (!udev) {
printf("Can't create udev\n");
exit(1);
}
/* Create a list of the devices in the 'hidraw' subsystem. */
enumerate = udev_enumerate_new(udev);
udev_enumerate_add_match_subsystem(enumerate, "hidraw");
udev_enumerate_scan_devices(enumerate);
devices = udev_enumerate_get_list_entry(enumerate);
/* For each item enumerated, print out its information.
udev_list_entry_foreach is a macro which expands to
a loop. The loop will be executed for each member in
devices, setting dev_list_entry to a list entry
which contains the device's path in /sys. */
udev_list_entry_foreach(dev_list_entry, devices) {
const char *path;
/* Get the filename of the /sys entry for the device
and create a udev_device object (dev) representing it */
path = udev_list_entry_get_name(dev_list_entry);
dev = udev_device_new_from_syspath(udev, path);
/* usb_device_get_devnode() returns the path to the device node
itself in /dev. */
printf("Device Node Path: %s\n", udev_device_get_devnode(dev));
/* The device pointed to by dev contains information about
the hidraw device. In order to get information about the
USB device, get the parent device with the
subsystem/devtype pair of "usb"/"usb_device". This will
be several levels up the tree, but the function will find
it.*/
dev = udev_device_get_parent_with_subsystem_devtype(
dev,
"usb",
"usb_device");
if (!dev) {
printf("Unable to find parent usb device.");
exit(1);
}
/* From here, we can call get_sysattr_value() for each file
in the device's /sys entry. The strings passed into these
functions (idProduct, idVendor, serial, etc.) correspond
directly to the files in the directory which represents
the USB device. Note that USB strings are Unicode, UCS2
encoded, but the strings returned from
udev_device_get_sysattr_value() are UTF-8 encoded. */
printf(" VID/PID: %s %s\n",
udev_device_get_sysattr_value(dev,"idVendor"),
udev_device_get_sysattr_value(dev, "idProduct"));
printf(" %s\n %s\n",
udev_device_get_sysattr_value(dev,"manufacturer"),
udev_device_get_sysattr_value(dev,"product"));
printf(" serial: %s\n",
udev_device_get_sysattr_value(dev, "serial"));
udev_device_unref(dev);
}
/* Free the enumerator object */
udev_enumerate_unref(enumerate);
udev_unref(udev);
return 0;
}
