Hi,

Recently there was an USB Packet Filter solution added, which can TAP data at 
the most common places.

See /sys/dev/usb/usb_pf.c

And: usbpf_xfertap()

If you want to grab information lower than this, there is no formal API at the 
present moment.

Are you thinking about USB Gadget/Device or USB Host data grabbing?
