Description Hans de Goede 2011-07-26 08:49:35 UTC 
qemu-0.15 now comes with (the long awaited) usb2 emulation / passthrough support. enabling this requires creating 4 devices from the cmdline, the ehci controler itself and its 3 companion controllers, like this:
-device ich9-usb-ehci1,addr=1d.7,multifunction=on,id=ehci
-device ich9-usb-uhci1,addr=1d.0,multifunction=on,id=uhci-1,masterbus=ehci.0,firstport=0
-device ich9-usb-uhci2,addr=1d.1,multifunction=on,id=uhci-2,masterbus=ehci.0,firstport=2,
-device ich9-usb-uhci3,addr=1d.2,multifunction=on,id=uhci-3,masterbus=ehci.0,firstport=4

Hi Hans, first step here is to file an RFE with libvirt since it does all of virt-manager's command line generation.

Right, that is why this bug is against libvirt :)
Comment 3 Cole Robinson 2011-07-26 17:11:32 UTC

Comment 4 Hans de Goede 2011-08-19 05:59:33 UTC 
Quick note, I just got a mail from bz that this got assigned to Osier Yang, Marc-André Lureau is also working on this to get it into Fedora 16, please coordinate with him.

Nice feature. I would welcome it, too. Thanks.
Comment 8 Marc-Andre Lureau 2011-09-12 10:32:39 UTC 
All USB patches are available in libvirt v0.9.5-rc1.

Should we close this bug Hans?

Thanks, that is very good news!

I don't see any 0.9.5 build in koji yet, I think it is best to just make
the 0.9.5 update in bodhi autoclose this.
Comment 10 Marc-Andre Lureau 2011-09-12 11:21:19 UTC 
Please release 0.9.5 closing this bug (comment #9)
Comment 11 Cole Robinson 2014-03-12 17:48:26 UTC 
Been upstream for a long time
