Not an HAL expert but it has several command line tools, which I
suppose can be used for this.

hal-device                hal-get-property          hal-set-property
hal-disable-polling       hal-is-caller-locked-out  hal-setup-keymap
hal-find-by-capability    hal-is-caller-privileged  halt
hal-find-by-property      hal-lock

Perhaps a combination of hal-find-by-* and hal-get-property.
