[Xen-devel] [PATCH v5 0/3] usb, xen: add pvUSB backend

[Juergen Gross <jgross@xxxxxxxx>]

This series adds a Xen pvUSB backend driver to qemu. USB devices
connected to the host can be passed through to a Xen guest. The
devices are specified via Xenstore. Access to the devices is done
via host-libusb.c

I've tested the backend with various USB devices (memory sticks,
keyboard, ...).

Changes in V5:
- patch 2: silence checkpatch errors/warnings

Changes in V4:
- patch 2: don't allow guest reading the new directory as requested by
  Anthony Perard

Changes in V3:
- added new patch 2 (was sent formerly on it's own)
- patch 3 (was 2): multiple small changes as requested by Anthony Perard
- patch 3 (was 2): check for full ring in case of hotplug events as
  requested by Anthony Perard
- patch 3 (was 2): use RING_COPY_REQUEST() instead of RING_GET_REQUEST()
- patch 3 (was 2): add check for required header version and disable
  backend in case header is too old

Changes in V2:
- rebased to current qemu master
- removed support for isoc requests in this series, as the optimal way to
  support those isn't clear yet. Will be added in a followup series.
- several changes as requested by Stefano Stabellini and Konrad Wilk

Changes since RFC:
- open device via qdev_device_add(), making patch 1 obsolete
- modify patch 2 to use isoc passthrough via libusb instead of one
  job per frame

Juergen Gross (3):
  xen: introduce dummy system device
  xen: write information about supported backends
  xen: add pvUSB backend
