A while back I built an orchestrator application that would monitor usb events and then launch/destroy containers that have that usb device mapped to them. The orchestrator also ran in a container with no networking.

Imagine my frustration when I learned that udev events don’t make it into containers unless networking is enabled.

Figured out a solution eventually. Was a combination of compiling certain packages from source and some kernel flags if i remember correctly.
