The inotify watch loop had no error handling: a single OSError (e.g. a directory under /dev/bus/usb vanishing mid-walk during a USB unplug, or a transient inotify failure) would kill the watcher task permanently and silently stop all callbacks. - _add_watches() now skips directories that fail add_watch instead of crashing the whole watcher on hotplug races. - _watcher() wraps the run loop and auto-restarts after _AUTO_RECOVER_TIME on OSError, mirroring the recovery pattern in sibling aiodhcpwatcher. - Removed a duplicate Mask.CREATE in the watch mask.

What: Make the USB watcher self-healing — recover from transient inotify errors and hotplug races instead of dying silently.
Why: The watch loop had zero error handling. A single
OSError— a directory under/dev/bus/usbvanishing mid-walk during an unplug, or a transient inotify failure — would kill the watcher task permanently and stop all callbacks with no recovery. For a long-lived process (e.g. Home Assistant), that means USB detection silently stops working until restart.How:
_add_watches()skips directories that failadd_watch(hotplug race) rather than crashing the whole watcher._watcher()now wraps the run loop and auto-restarts after_AUTO_RECOVER_TIMEonOSError, mirroring the recovery pattern already used in the siblingaiodhcpwatcher.Mask.CREATEin the watch mask.Testing:
pytest(6 passed),ruff check,ruff format --check. Added two tests: one asserts the watcher restarts and keeps firing callbacks after a transientOSError; the other asserts a failingadd_watchon a vanished subdir is swallowed and the watcher keeps processing later events.Quality Report
