I found out about Raw Gadget on Raspberry Pi[3] just now, in reading about raw-gadget [4]: > Most of the Gadset subsystem interfaces (with the exception of GadgetFS and the FunctionFS-based composite function) only allow emulating USB devices of specific classes. Compared to them, Raw Gadget allows emulating USB devices of arbitary classes. [1] https://zerostem.io/ [2] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/li
