Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/1] USB XHCI emulation

[Juan Antonio Moya Vicén]

Sure! As Gerd pointed out (I'm quoting him here)

"Right now the code winds up libusb directly and supports pass-through
only.  It doesn't integrate with the qemu usb subsystem at all and you
can't hook up emulated usb devices to xhci.  I can see why you are doing
that given the state of the qemu usb subsystem, nevertheless I want xhci
integrate like the other usb host adapters do. "

We would first improve the patch to solve the two issues
highlighted with the phones. Then we can think of porting it to the
nowadays qemu usb system
