Hello,

I passthrough a host usb device to a guest  with a bus number and device number in the xml to identify the usb device.

When I unplug and then plug back into the same USB physical port, the guest identifies the usb device failed. Because on the host ,the usb device number increases.

So , I want to know that whether Libvirt will provide an interface that identifies a host usb device with bus number and physical port .

As far as I know ,Qemu upstream had added a hostport property which allows to specify the host usb with bus number and physical port.

the patch is :
