Subject: Can't we have stricter matching for vendor specific devices?
Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2020 13:36:31 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1579523791.17973.31.camel@suse.com> (raw)

Hi Johan,

I have looked at your heroic efforts at sanity checking
and I cannot help myself wondering whether this is a winning
strategy. Shall we really specify for each device how many
endpoints it is suposed to have in the probe() method?

Could we extend the matching by a minimum and maximum number
of endpoints and masks for permissible endpoint types?

For class devices this is impossible, but the majority of
drivers are for vendor specific devices.

	Regards
		Oliver
