Hi,

I'm learning about USB drivers and I would like to know about 
disconnecting and reconnecting usb devices.

I can see my probe function being called and also the disconnect 
function. But if I reconnect the device there is no call from the kernel 
to notify my driver about the device being reconnected.

I can also see that the module for my driver was not unloaded, so I dont 
understand the life cycle of a USB device.

If the module is not unloaded at disconnection and re-loaded for a new 
device being connected, how can the driver know the device is there 
after a disconnection?

Thanks
Lucas

This is my dmesg for the driver at the end of this email:
