GUsb is a GObject wrapper for libusb1 that makes it easy to do asynchronous control, bulk and interrupt transfers with proper cancellation and integration into a mainloop.
If you’re interested, check out the released tarball or code from git, and tell us what you think.
For those wanting to know the purpose of this little new project, it’s so SPICE can integrate with GSource (for USB redirection), and so that colord can do asynchronous cancellable transfers to colorimeter devices (for native calibration).
