I modified libusb1.0 open function as follows:
static int op_open2(struct libusb_device_handle *handle, int fd) {
struct linux_device_handle_priv *hpriv = _device_handle_priv(handle);
hpriv->fd = fd;
return usbi_add_pollfd(HANDLE_CTX(handle), hpriv->fd, POLLOUT);
}
where fd was obtained via android.hardware.usb.UsbDeviceConnection.html#getFileDescriptor()
final UsbDeviceConnection connection = manager.openDevice(device);
return connection.getFileDescriptor();
Unfortunatelly I keep getting an error when I call
static int op_claim_interface(struct libusb_device_handle *handle, int iface)
{
int fd = _device_handle_priv(handle)->fd;
int r = ioctl(fd, IOCTL_USBFS_CLAIMINTF, &iface);
if (r) {
if (errno == ENOENT)
return LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_FOUND;
else if (errno == EBUSY)
return LIBUSB_ERROR_BUSY;
else if (errno == ENODEV)
return LIBUSB_ERROR_NO_DEVICE;
usbi_err(HANDLE_CTX(handle),
"claim interface failed, error %d errno %d", r, errno);
return LIBUSB_ERROR_OTHER;
}
return 0;
}
claim interface failed, error -1 errno 9
which is translated to "Bad file number". The file descriptor I get from Java is a positive integer!
The only other small detail is that my native code runs as a separate binary that is spawned with a Java ProcessBuilder. But they share the same uid, so I presume the USB permissions I have from Java should still apply for libusb.
I don't need to be platform independent, so any hacks would do the job :)
Any thoughts would be much appreciated!
Additional information! The output I get from lsof is (shortened to stress the most interesting part of it)

Which makes me think that the file descriptor 44 that I pass to my_exe is actually not inherited!
