I'd very much like to be able to get usage page and usage through the hidraw backend.

Would an updated patch of this be acceptable for merging?
Or some other tactic for implementing it?

So that first commit has a couple problems:

It's a copy/paste/edit my uses_numbered_reports(). Those would need to be merged into one implementation.
The patch does more than one thing, eg:
a. refactoring retrieval of the report descriptor into a function
b. calling this new function from hid_open_path() and hid_enumerate() (why not just hid_enumerate()?)
c. whitespace changes.
These changes will need to each be evaluated, and if applicable, be split into separate commits.
It introduces a dependency on C99. I like C99, but some users running on ancient versions of Linux (and there are more than it seems like there ought to be) will scream.

I'm curious, 2 years further on, if this is getting any attention (mostly because U2F expects the implementer to find devices by their usage page and usage.)

Yubico's libu2f-host library appears to have essentially patched this code in outside the hidapi library, but it seems like it would be a lot cleaner if there is a way to get an acceptable version of this branch merged in.

Just banged my head against the wall for a few hours after running into this issue myself :( Would be really nice to have this working. I'll take a swing at improving the patch if necessary.

our device (mooltipass) is a composite HID/HID. having this feature would be great.
