  • [RFH] USB HID testing on sparc64

    From John Paul Adrian Glaubitz@21:1/5 to All on Sun May 11 21:50:01 2025
    Hello,

    could anyone with a sparc64 machine running Linux on bare metal with
    a USB controller help me run a small test program?

    The program can be found in [1]. It can be built and run with:

    glaubitz@stadler:~$ gcc hid-example.c -o hid-example

    root@stadler:~$ /home/glaubitz/hid-example
    Unable to open device: No such file or directory
    root@stadler:~$

    It must be run at root on a machine where a HID USB device is connected
    to the machine, i.e. a mouse or a keyboard which should cause the device
    node /dev/hidraw0 to be created.

    Note: The program needs to be run as root to access /dev/hidraw0.

    Please post the output on this mailing list.

    Thanks,
    Adrian

    I figured it out in the meantime and sent a pull request upstream, see:
