Hi,
attached is some basic support for host device passthrough. It enables
you to passthrough usb devices in qemu/kvm via:
<devices>
<hostdev type='usb' vendor='0204' product='6025'/>
<hostdev type='usb' bus='001' device='007'/>
</devices>
I didn't implement unplug yet since this needs some modifications to
qemu/kvm to be able to identify the correct device to unplug.
Does this look reasonable?

Hum, on the format level I think this need a bit more discussion.
the type is better caracterized as a bus informations.

I think an hypervisor could remap the actual port/addresses
of a device so a target may make sense in the future (or not).

I also think we need to clarify the naming conventions, are numbers
provided decimal, if yes then is an 0x hexadecimal version allowed too.
I also see how a more high level description might be useful,
<hostdev type='usb'>
<source vendor='Sennheiser'/>
</hostdev>
or
<hostdev type='usb'>
<source product='headset'/>
</hostdev>
in that case this means that libvirt has some lookup to do, but in the
end the XML format becomes more portable which is an important property IMHO.
From an implementation perspective, the patch looks very clean to me
aside maybe some Hostdev type vs. Bus naming for the enum, but maybe we need
to give a bit more thoughs one the format first :-)

Qemu support host:bus.device syntax
for usb devices (useful for the case
of two identical devices). PCI can work like this too of course.

I think this looks better. Actually I thought so already after
sending
the patch.
I think an hypervisor could remap the actual port/addresses
of a device so a target may make sense in the future (or not).
Hopefully it does.
It would be nice if we could do that since we'd then
have the necessary data for easy unmapping.

Currently
they're all hex as outputet by lsusb.

Yes, for SCSI at least we need target info, and if we can query
the mapped target address from the underlying hypervisor we
should display it.

We should stick to ID numbers in the domain XML - allowing decimal
or hex is nice.
For descriptive names 'Sennheiser' or 'headset', we should only
provide that info in the device enumeration APIs
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2008-April/msg00005.html
Management tools / admins can use this to map to the ID number
from a human readable name if relevant.

Well, I was thinking of this as a way to keep the XML file static
over a range of potential hardware, potentially allowing some kind
of migration in spite of a dependancy to a local hardware device.
But that's probably not very realistic, and if turn out possible sometimes
then that can be added later.

Okay, that solves the problem at creation time, i remember this being
discussed no problem.

The way we do target for other disk types doesn't work so well - others
we typically have a device name, eg hda, sdc, xvdf, etc. For VirtIO we
let people pass in a dummy device name too 'vda', 'vdb', etc. Only some
of the disk buses & guest OS honour these names though - in cases where
they're not honoured, they at most provide a unique key, and allow for
ordering of disks in our XML. USB will be much like SCSI / VirtIO where
the device name in the XML is merely used for ordering, so we should just
allow sda, sdb, etc as the target device name. This will avoid having
to special case the code in the here too much.

It is possible to have USB floppys and CDROMs. So this check should be
made in the underlying drivers at time of use, rather than in the
parser. eg, move this into qemudBuildCommandLine() method, or the
device hotplug method for QEMU. Similarly for other hypervisor backends
as needed.

The way we do target for other disk types doesn't work so well - others
we typically have a device name, eg hda, sdc, xvdf, etc. For VirtIO we
let people pass in a dummy device name too 'vda', 'vdb', etc. Only some
of the disk buses & guest OS honour these names though - in cases where

the device name in the XML is merely used for ordering, so we should just
allow sda, sdb, etc as the target device name. This will avoid having
to special case the code in the here too much.
Acutally I intended to use the
target like target="bus:device" once qemu
(and others) support this. The would also help on detach. Would you
prefer:
<target bus='usb' target='sda' bus='0001' id='1234'>
then?

Acutally I intended to use the target like target="bus:device" once qemu
(and others) support this. The would also help on detach. Would you
prefer:
<target bus='usb' target='sda' bus='0001'
id='1234'>
Taking into account the other thread discussing USB/PCI device passthrough
to the guest for host device, I think it'd be worth having an explicit
'address' element for the USB details using a matching syntax, eg
<target dev='sda' bus='usb'>
<address bus='0001' dev='1234'/>
</target>

Daniel

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH/RFC]: file backed usb massstorage #2
Hi,
attached is a second version of the usb massstorage patch:
Changes are:
* use sd* dummy dev names instead of usbdisk
* move the check for the "subtype" (hard disk/cdrom/...) into the driver
An example is:
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<target dev="sda" bus='usb'/>
<source file='/foo/bar/usbmass.img'/>
</disk>
Patch is on top of the hostdev passthrough patch.
Cheers,
-- Guido

Should just be
qemudReportError(dom->conn, NULL, NULL, VIR_ERR_NO_MEMORY, NULL);
As with the other patch we need to have an update to the RNG schema
and at least one example test data file in tests/qemuxml2argvdata/
with XML and corresponding ARGV, plumbed into qemuxml2xmltest.c and
qemuxml2argvtest.c
With those changes I'd be happy to see this committed.
Regards,
Daniel

Hi,
attached is version three of the file backed usb massstorage patch.
* handle type != DISK case
* on OOM use VIR_ERR_NO_MEMORY instead of VIR_ERR_OPERAION_FAILED
* RelaxNG schema update
* testcase
The patches are ment to be applied on top of the hostdev patches.
Cheers,

No, this would break the test case, since its being compared against
generated data in the format shown by the patch.

Ahh... it looked like something to be executed (and maintained),
rather than merely expected output. So no need to split long lines.
However, including a trailing newline might be worthwhile
(and adjust the code to emit the matching newline), since some editors
have a hard time modifying or creating a file with no newline at EOF.

Heh. Unfortunately, that's not an option either. The tests just do a simple
strcmp(), so if there is an extra trailing newline in the args file, the test
will "fail". I ran into this before.

Maybe you're talking about something else?
I proposed to add a trailing newline in the expected output
as well as in the code to generate the "actual" output.

At first I thought that might be incomplete.
But it's all that's needed on the C side.
I ran this one-liner to append the missing newlines, and we're all set:
for i in $(find|grep '\.args$'); do echo >> $i;done
"make check" and "make syntax-check" both pass.
Planning to commit that, I rebased against the latest, but found "make
check" then failed due to three new expected-output ".args" files without
the now-required trailing newline. I added them, and now "make check"
passes, so I've just committed it.

This should handle the case in which vm == NULL.
Otherwise, qemudMonitorCommand will dereference NULL.

The function gets called from qemudDomainAttachDevice which does the
same call to virDomainFindbyUUid and checks for vm == NULL already but
you're right: better safe than sorry.
[..snip..]
Please add a newline and split the long line:
/usr/bin/qemu -S -M pc -m 214 -smp 1 -nographic -monitor pty -no-acpi \
-boot c -hda /dev/HostVG/QEMUGuest1 -usbdevice disk:/tmp/usbdisk.img \

I'd rather not since this breaks
the testcase, it compares the exact
output.

Hi,
attached is some basic support for host device passthrough. It enables
you to passthrough usb devices in qemu/kvm via:
<devices>
<hostdev type='usb' vendor='0204' product='6025'/>
<hostdev type='usb' bus='001' device='007'/>
</devices>
This stuff is obviously going to have a correlation with the host
device enumeration support I'd offered a design for a few months
back. As such I'd like to try and keep a consistent XML format
between the two. For reference the original mesage was here:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2008-April/msg00005.html
There were basically two ways to identify a device. Some devices
are 'physical' mapped straight to a piece of hardware (USB device,
or PCI card) and would have '<bus>' element with hardware details.
eg a USB finger print reader appears as:
<device>
<name>usb_device_483_2016_noserial</name>
<key>/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_483_2016_noserial</key>
<parent>/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_0_0_0000_00_1d_3</parent>
<bus type="usb">
<vendor id="1155">SGS Thomson Microelectronics</vendor>
<product id="8214">Fingerprint Reader</product>
<address bus="003" dev="005"/>
</bus>
</device>
Other devices are 'logical' devices, which don't have hardware info
directly associated with them. The reason for this is that one piece
of hardware may present many logical devices each with varying
capabilities. As an example, a wifi card typically exports at least
2 network device - one control interface, and one for traffic.
eg a wireless network interface for data traffic
<device>
<name>net_00_13_02_b9_f9_d3_0</name>
<key>/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/net_00_13_02_b9_f9_d3_0</key>
<parent>/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_8086_4227</parent>
<capability type="net">
<hwaddr>00:13:02:b9:f9:d3</hwaddr>
<name>eth0</name>
<capability type="80211"/>
</capability>
</device>
In this case the unique device identifier is the '<name>' field
but this case varying depending on the capability type.
Different virt solutions have different capabilties for device
passthrough. KVM and Xen both support passthrough of physical
devices, either USB or PCI cards. OpenVZ supports passthrough
of logical devices - in particular network interfaces.
We need to allow for both possibilities in the domain XML for
this type of device.
So, to expand on your proposal, I'd like to see the XML format
have a top level attribute indicating whether we're passing a
logical or physical device, and then the capability name or
bus name respectively. The child elements then need to provide
the appropriate naming.
USB has the further annoyance you identified that one could
conceivably do attachment based on USB bus address, or the
vendor+product pair. The downside of former is that a bus
address changes every time you plug a device in. The downside
of the latter is that it is not neccessarily unique. We have
no choice but to allow both I'm afraid :-(
Finally, with some systems we may have the option of specifying
a target address - eg PCI device ID seen in guest.
So, some examples....
A USB device by vendor+product
<hostdev mode='bus' bus='usb'>
<source>
<product id='1155'/>
<vendor id='8214'/>
</source>
</hostdev>
A USB device by address
<hostdev mode='bus' bus='usb'>
<source>
<address bus='003' dev='005'/>
</source>
</hostdev>
A PCI device by address
<hostdev mode='bus' bus='pci'>
<source>
<address domain="0000" bus="00" slot="16"
function="3"/>
</source>
</hostdev>
A network card by name (ie for OpenVZ)
<hostdev mode='capability'>
<source name='eth0'/>
</hostdev>
A SCSI device by name (eg, SCSI PV passthrough), also specifying
the target adress
<hostdev mode='capability' type='scsi'>
<source name='sg3'/>
<target address='0:0:0:0'/>
</hostdev>
Conceivably we could allow PCI devices by vendor+product, but
I don't see much call for that since PCI device's don't (yet)
appear/disappear on the fly & have a consistent address. More
to the point none of our underlying hypervisors use anything
other than the PCI address for PCI device passthrough.
For USB, if we're doing attachment based on vendor+product,
then libvirt needs to query QEMU to find out the actual
device it chose, so we can fill in the <address> tag. NB I
know QEMU doesn't allow this, but we need it in order todo
unplug reliably, so we'll likely need to do it anyway.

Modulo, the comments about the XML format, I think your patch is basically
sound & following all our guidelines which is great :-)

There were basically two ways to identify a device. Some devices
are 'physical' mapped straight to a piece of hardware (USB device,
or PCI card) and would have '<bus>' element with hardware details.
Oh, one thing I meant to say. Contrary to my message in the thread
above, and my previous reply, we should actually use 'subsys' or
'subsystem' instead of 'bus', to follow the HAL naming.
eg a USB finger print reader appears as:
<device>
<name>usb_device_483_2016_noserial</name>
<key>/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_483_2016_noserial</key>
<parent>/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_0_0_0000_00_1d_3</parent>
<bus type="usb">
eg
<subsystem type='usb'>
<vendor id="1155">SGS Thomson
Microelectronics</vendor>
<product id="8214">Fingerprint Reader</product>
<address bus="003" dev="005"/>
</bus>
</device>

New subject: [libvirt] [PATCH/RFC]: hostdev passthrough support take #2
Hi,
attached is a second version. Changes are:
* s/bus/subsystem/
* support hexadecimal and decimal attributes
* introduce device and source elements.
I decided to not drop vendor and product id into their own elements
since the structure would then become very nested for no good reason.
Some examples:
<hostdev mode="subsys" type='usb'>
<source>
<device vendor="0x0204" product="0x6025"/>
</source>
</hostdev>
<hostdev mode="subsys" type='usb'>
<source>
<address bus="001" device="003"/>
</source>
</hostdev>
Support for <target> will be coming once I got around to adjust
qemu/kvm.
Cheers,
-- Guido

The reason is that I want it to match the host device enumeration
XML format. This will be using explicit <product> and <vendor>
tags, with an 'id' attribute, because there will be text content
in the body giving the human readable name.
Some examples:
<hostdev mode="subsys" type='usb'>
<source>
<device vendor="0x0204" product="0x6025"/>
So this needs to be changed to
<vendor id="0x0204"/>

</source>
</hostdev>
<hostdev mode="subsys" type='usb'>
<source>

This one is fine.

Ok, that's not critical, but the other things we need before we
can commit this are
- Code to format XML for output, so that the devices are included when
dumping the XML description of a guest.
- Update to the RNG schema in docs/libvirt.rng
- Example XML data files in tests/qemuxml2argvdata/, along with the
corresponding CLI args for QEMU. THis is then hooked into the
qemuxml2argvtest.c and qemuxml2xmltest.c files
The latter test suite requires point the XML formatting & RNG updates.
The currrent code you have for parsing XML & attaching device/creating
CLI flags is basically correct with only very minor bugs
+static int
+virDomainHostdevSubsysUsbDefParseXML(virConnectPtr conn,
+ const xmlNodePtr node,
+ virDomainHostdevDefPtr def) {
Minor indentation bug.
+
+ int ret = -1;
+ xmlNodePtr cur;
+
+ def->source.subsys.usb.vendor = 0;
+ def->source.subsys.usb.product = 0;
+ def->source.subsys.usb.bus = 0;
+ def->source.subsys.usb.device = 0;
This isn't needed, since the VIR_ALLOC contract says that the memory
range has been memset() to all zero.
+static int qemudDomainAttachHostDevice(virDomainPtr dom,
virDomainDeviceDefPtr dev)
+{
+ struct qemud_driver *driver = (struct qemud_driver *)dom->conn->privateData;
+ virDomainObjPtr vm = virDomainFindByUUID(driver->domains, dom->uuid);
+ int ret;
+ char *cmd, *reply;
+
+ if (dev->data.hostdev->source.subsys.usb.vendor) {
+ ret = asprintf(&cmd, "usb_add host:%.4x:%.4x",
+ dev->data.hostdev->source.subsys.usb.vendor,
+ dev->data.hostdev->source.subsys.usb.product);
+ } else {
+ ret = asprintf(&cmd, "usb_add host:%.3d.%.3d",
+ dev->data.hostdev->source.subsys.usb.bus,
+ dev->data.hostdev->source.subsys.usb.device);
+ }
+ if (ret == -1) {
+ qemudReportError(dom->conn, dom, NULL, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED,
+ "%s", _("out of memory"));
+ return -1;
This should be reporting OOM, and not pass the 'dom' parameter, and
no need for a string message, eg
qemudReportError(dom->conn, NULL, NULL, VIR_ERR_NO_MEMORY, NULL);

Daniel

Sure. I delayed those since
they'd have to be adjusted when the XML
changes, I'll add them now and do the other minor touchups you
suggested...might be a couple of days though.

Okidoc, all look good ! Applied and commited to CVS,
thanks a lot for the work,
I think the only thing missing is extending the descrition in the documentation
would you mind adding a description in formatdomain.html(.in)
Probably an "USB devices" section added below the elementsDisks part,
explaining the syntaxes and stating that it was added in versions after 0.4.4
If you don't feel comfortable with that I can do it, but you know better :)

Probably an "USB devices" section added below the elementsDisks part,
explaining the syntaxes and stating that it was added in versions after 0.4.4
If you don't feel comfortable with that I can do it, but you know better :)
Attached is a short patch for this. This might be a bit terse but we'll
have to change this anyhow once pci passthrough for xen arrives.
Cheers,
