Hi,
I need a flexible USB passthrough of a USB-device. If the device is turned off
by the current switch (230Volt) the VM should start and not claim that the
USB device is left.
Using:
<devices>
…
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb'>
<source>
<vendor id='0x152a'/>
<product id='0x8180'/>
</source>
</hostdev>
</devices>
</domain>
in libvirt XML-config file the boot process is stopped if the device is switched
off. How can I configure the xml-file to make ich more flexible?
Another possibility would be to passthrough USB-Slot No1 (or No 2, ...) to
the VM. So an arbitrary USB-device that is plugged in to USB-Slot1
would be recognized by the VM. In another forum I got the hint to
start the VM by:
-usb -usbdevice host:0.* -usbdevice host:1.*
to passthrough USB-Slot No1 and No 2. How can I configure that in libvirt
xml-file?
