First, please consider maybe using something else than the HID class.

If you wish to only support Linux and not Windows, then maybe the
vendor specific class would be better.


Second, if you do still want to use HID, and you only need your
software to run on Linux, you could look into using the hidraw API in
Linux instead of libusb.


libhid was mentioned, and is also a good candidate, but it currently
has rather strong focus on HID data structures and not so much on
lightweight IO. There has been some discussion to change that though.
