如何将 lsusb 列出的 usb 设备与 dmesg 显示的 usb 序列号匹配？

Question

I have a setup here with a lot of USB devices connected this is my lsusb output:

Bus 003 Device 013: ID 16c0:05dc Van Ooijen Technische Informatica shared ID for use with libusb

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

as you can see there are multiple of the same devices and multiple hubs with the same vendor id and all. I am monitoring these with Wireshark (tshark actually) and I get some errors like this:

293549  43.514117       3.17.1 → host         USB 66 URB_BULK in[Malformed Packet]

However, I can't physically identify which device it is without the device's serial number.

I can see this serial number on dmesg

[Wed Feb 17 16:03:29 2021] usb 1-3.2.1: New USB device found, idVendor=16c0, idProduct=05dc
[Wed Feb 17 16:03:29 2021] usb 1-3.2.1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[Wed Feb 17 16:03:29 2021] usb 1-3.2.1: Product: USB BDC
[Wed Feb 17 16:03:29 2021] usb 1-3.2.1: Manufacturer: www.engineeredarts.co.uk
[Wed Feb 17 16:03:29 2021] usb 1-3.2.1: SerialNumber: 345B34673238

My question is: How can I match these two things? or at least, how can I get that same 'SerialNumber' that dmesg displays, of the numbers I get from tshark?

(resetting each device to see which one is which while watching dmesg and lsusb isn't an option)

Answer 1

Got it! Turns out you can see the serial with sudo lsusb -v . It has to be run as root otherwise the files will be empty, then to clean all the useless info did a quick grep like so:

lsusb -v | grep '^Bus\|iSerial'

This is grepping 2 results (separated by \| which is the OR operator), first one are stuff that start(^) with the word Bus and the second one is that it contains the word serial

also stumbled across another command that I didn't know about:
