Hello,

The Linux kernel FTDI SIO driver contains quite a comprehensive USB
VID/PID database. The values are defined in
linux/drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio_ids.h and are combined together in
id_table_combined in linux/drivers/usb/serial/ftdi_sio.c. The protocol
these devices use is being dissected by FTDI FT dissector.

FTDI FT dissector has its own short list of VID/PID pairs. How could
we expand the list with the IDs from Linux kernel (I guess manually is
one option, but that just sounds bad)?

Best Regards,
Tomasz Moń
