@scotty1024 Yes, I do realize that I can implement the functionality w/o serial number, nevertheless thank you, it is also possible that you understand my intent better than me..
But the idea is to implement automatic on-demand binding of prs units without any special listener application with just FUSE module itself (so that upon access the FUSE module is able to restore access to the needed device even if it was reconnected, switched its usb bus location, etc.) and also having persistent directory name for each connected device could be useful. Serial # is the natural choice in building such a name.
