Subject: Filtering USB storage data in kernel module
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2011 14:15:35 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4EC4C9AF.8090008@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi All,
I need to filter the data written/read to and from the USB storage
disk. Now the way USB is made known to OS is through SCSI and then
respective filesystem ( mostly usbfs).
So is there any way I can intercept this stack and have my kernel module
invoked so that I will get the data.
I have been thinking on two approaches:
1. Use VFS and write a proxy filesystem for USB device which will filter
the data.
2. checking SCSI and any intercepting point.
I am currently looking at USBMONITOR source code as well. Please let me
know if there is any other way to achieve this.
Regards,
Abhijit Pawar
