Comment on USB for Software Developers: An introduction to writing userspace USB drivers

Comments

Nice article, happen to have been working on a usbip system for my Macbook M3 using similar tech.

Worth noting that, this approach is limitted on newer macOS systems: can't build libusb "userspace USB drivers" for devices that are supported by macOS. Without manually disabling some Security features, can't override drivers for system-recognized USB devices.

Overriding drivers can be mitigated as it is just one layer.
