/dev/input file created, but contains no data stream - linux

So, I'm trying to read a USB device in a brand new installation of Linux Mint.
The way I've done it before is to read the raw stream found in /dev/input/by-id
The device is being detected, and it is producing the expected device:
$ ls /dev/input/by-id/
usb-Generic_WebCam_SC-13HDL11939N_200901010001-event-if00
usb-Logitech_Logitech_Buzz_tm__Controller_V1-event-if00
But when I look at the file using
tail -f /dev/input/by-id/usb-Generic_WebCam_SC-13HDL11939N_200901010001-event-if00
No data is output to the terminal when I press some keys. I've tried it with sudo, I've tried changing the rights for the file. It basically waits where it is, unchanged.
There's a lot of questions about devices not appearing, or about IO errors when reading a file, but I can't find anyone else who's had the same problem.
Why might Linux Mint be detecting the device, but not reading the data from it?
Additional requested information:
# ls -lRa /dev/input/by-id
/dev/input/by-id:

I tried tail -f on /dev/input/event10, too. Same result.

I have found that it can be read using the evtest utility (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection/evtest), but only as root, or using sudo.
Also as root or sudo, I am unable to see any data in the path mentioned above.
P.S. I am able to push control data to the lamps in these controllers via /sys/class/leds/

The problem here is with the tail program, not with the input devices themselves. tail is trying to read data until "the end of the file" before it starts printing anything -- but an input device has no "end of the file", so it will never print anything. cat, on the other hand, writes out data immediately as it comes in, so that works correctly. I don't know why tail worked for you with other input devices in the past.

How to find reasons why an udev rule is not applied?

I added an udev rule to generate a separate link to a special tty device. I took the vendor and product id from lsusb:
Bus 001 Device 016: ID abcd:1234 Foo Device
The dmesg output for the device is:
[ 369.384850] usb 1-1.1: new full-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd
[ 369.470492] usb 1-1.1: New USB device found, idVendor=09d8, idProduct=0420

[ 369.470522] usb 1-1.1: Manufacturer: OEM
[ 369.475188] cdc_acm 1-1.1:1.0: ttyACM0: USB ACM device
Normally the Debian system generates an ACM* tty for this device:
$ ls /dev/ttyACM*
/dev/ttyACM0
So I created /ect/udev/rules.d/99-bizrfid.rules:
ACTION=="add", ATTRS{idVendor}=="09d8", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0420", SYMLINK+="ttyMyDevice"
But ls /dev/tty* does not show ttyMyDevice.
What I tried so far without success:
Running udevadm trigger. This should apply the new udev rule.
I did a reboot.
I had a look to udevadm test /dev/ttyACM0. My udevrule is shown at the end. So I am sure that it had not been overridden. But I wonder about the 'unable to open' hint. Nevertheless this hint is present for other ttys, such as tty0 or ttyS0, too.

I reconnected the USB device.
I tried another udev rule. This rule is 100% correct because I use this rule already fo other devices. But it does not work for the ttyACM0:
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="ttyACM*", MODE="0666"
I wonder why this is not working.
How to find reasons why an udev rule is not applied?
For the udev rule
/ect/udev/rules.d/99-bizrfid.rules I would add the SUBSYSTEM:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="tty", ATTRS{idVendor}=="09d8", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0420", SYMLINK+="ttyMyDevice"
You could add also ATTRS{manufacturer}==, but idVendor and idProduct are sufficient.
Otherwise it looks correct and the test run creates the symlink:
creating link '/dev/ttyMyDevice' to '/dev/ttyACM0'
According to the comments I the following can be tried to debug the problem:
Check the driver
Use dmesg to check the driver you are using and ensure that it is a generic one. If it is a custom compiled one, the problem could be inside your custom implementation. If it is a generic one, go on to step two. I found the driver name in the last line: cdc_acm

Check the user permissions
Ensure that the permission of your udev rule is correct:
chmod 644 99-myrule.rules
chown root:root 99-myrule.rules
Do a test run for the add-action
Check the output of udevadm test -a add $(udevadm info -q path -n /dev/ttyACM0). My output looks like this:

Monitoring (Sniffing) /dev/ttyUSB0 created by FTDI USB Serial Converter

I want to monitor (sniff) the traffic of my /dev/ttyUSB0 which is created by FTDI USB Serial Converter. I've written my own application in Windows and now I try to port it to linux and use /dev/tty/USB0. I want to debug the communication that actually happens.
The software strace is not an option for me because it only shows the syscalls to ioctl.
Using Windows the software "Free Serial Port Monitor" did it by sniffing COM1.
Output of dmesg:

However I tried moserial to do this and the command "echo foobar > /dev/ttyUSB0" to verify, if it works. Also my software doesn't create an output to moserial.
UPDATE:
Found out how to monitor usb directly, now I need to convert USB packets to RS-232 (what FTDI basically does).
Setup usbmon
modprobe usbmon
1.1 With Linux kernels prior to 2.6.23, you will also need to run this command
modprobe -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug
usbmon0 will monitor any traffic from all usbmon0 to usbmonX
2.1. Find the correct usb device
cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices|grep FTDI -A 7 -B 4
T: Bus=07 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 12 Spd=12 MxCh= 0

P: Vendor=0403 ProdID=6001 Rev= 6.00
S: Manufacturer=FTDI
S: Product=FT232R USB UART
S: SerialNumber=A400BJII

E: Ad=81(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 64 Ivl=0ms
2.2. Note Bus number of the port (Bus=07), so usbmon to monitor will be usbmon7
2.3. Use wireshark to capture the usbmon7 interface or use following command to get output to the console (stdout) ... replace the number with bus-id
cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon/7u
What means 'u'?
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/usb/usbmon.txt
Two formats are supported currently: the original, or '1t' format, and the '1u' format. The '1t' format is deprecated in kernel 2.6.21. The '1u' format adds a few fields, such as ISO frame descriptors, interval, etc. It produces slightly longer lines, but otherwise is a perfect superset of '1t' format.
How do I convert the USB capture to RS-232 capture?
I don't know it ... TODO
With your hint I managed to solve my problem, so there it is my hint for the last point:
Using Wireshark, open usbmon0 and use this filter
usb.capdata or at
Issuing two times the command echo asd > /dev/ttyUSB0 produces the result below in Wireshark
You can extract the whole Leftover Capture Data from a capture file using tshark:
tshark -r capture.pcapng -T fields -e usb.capdata

Is this Possible to know device Mounting and Unmounting Time in Ubuntu?

from dmesg we can know that particular device has been mounted or unmounted.
But I want to know on which time the device has been mounted or unmounted.
Solution 1:
dmesg output isn't having human readable date-time information
Instead using dmesg you can use kernel log available, and filter it according to your need.
for e.g. Ubuntu, Debian stores kernel log at /var/log/kern.log
cat /var/log/kern.log | grep "usb"
It will give output like,
Apr 30 11:42:23 debian kernel: [ 1537.984584] usb 1-1.1: USB disconnect, device number 3

Apr 30 11:42:29 debian kernel: [ 1543.504888] usb 1-1.1: Product: OM
Solution 2:
I've found one perl script to convert dmesg date-time to human readable.
Try it,
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my #dmesg_new = ();
my $dmesg = "/bin/dmesg";
my #dmesg_old = `$dmesg`;
my $now = time();
my $uptime = `cat /proc/uptime | cut -d"." -f1`;
my $t_now = $now - $uptime;
sub format_time {
my #time = localtime $_[0];
$time[4]+=1; # Adjust Month
$time[5]+=1900; # Adjust Year
return sprintf '%4i-%02i-%02i %02i:%02i:%02i', #time[reverse 0..5];
}
foreach my $line ( #dmesg_old )
{
chomp( $line );
if( $line =~ m/\[\s*(\d+)\.(\d+)\](.*)/i )
{
# now - uptime + sekunden
my $t_time = format_time( $t_now + $1 );
push( #dmesg_new , "[$t_time] $3" );
}
}
print join( "\n", #dmesg_new );
print "\n";

Solution 3:
If your distro supports -T option for dmesg
Try dmesg -T. For me it worked on Debian, It should work for you too on Ubuntu. It enables time-stamp for output.
[From man page]
-T, --ctime
Print human readable timestamps. The timestamp could be inaccurate!
The time source used for the logs is not updated after system SUSPEND/RESUME.
In linux /var/log directory contains various log details. We can also get history of previous logs from this directory. Kernel zips the previous log details. In case of yours you have to open kern.log. But If you are looking for details which is not in kern.log, you can see kern.log.1 or in case you are interested in very old details, you have to unzip kern.log.2.gz
