I am not particularly confident this line is going to work in android https://github.com/ezramorris/PyVirtualSerialPorts/blob/b624c5f91715ccd5b180c22fa130a0b5af48238f/virtualserialports.py#L90

if API is providing the raw USB access, and the lying must be done in the main app, what else would you actually want or need in :api?

I'm missing something about the implementation but I think that's the point

since it is already in the business of lying about the contents of the vfs to unmodified programs in the app

yeah, I don't think it can be done without a termux-app-side userspace program, because :api isn't positioned to lie to programs about their vfs. and I'm not seeing why you'd bother having anything at all in :api when the part you really need (the raw USB access) is already exposed to the termux app.

I'm not totally sure it's useful for this to be in :api? seems like it's implementable within the app, depending on termux-usb

you'd have to modify something outside termux:api for this to be possible, for the reason you've been circling

you need proot or other LD_PRELOAD shenanigans if you want things to see stuff in /dev/
