[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1033727] [NEW] USB passthrough doesn't work anymore with qemu-kvm 1.1.1

[Klaus Hochlehnert]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

I have a "Bus 006 Device 002: ID 0d46:3003 Kobil Systems GmbH mIDentity Light / 
KAAN SIM III" (kind of smart card) in an USB port whitch I make available to a 
Windows XP guest.
This worked fine with every older qemu-kvm version I've used so far.

But since 1.1.0 it doesn't work anymore.
The device shows up in the guest, but the software can't access it anymore (and 
the guest is pretty unresponsive).

On the host I get every 2 seconds this message:
[ 7719.239528] usb 6-1: reset full-speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd

Command line options are:
/usr/bin/kvm
...
-device usb-host,vendorid=0x0d46,productid=0x3003,bus=usb.0,port=3
...

When I switch back to qemu-kvm 1.0.1 everything works fine again.
Any idea what the problem could be?

Thanks
Klaus
