Package: linux-image-amd64 Severity: wishlist Hi,
When using the spice protocol one can via usbredir give the remote guest VM access to a local USB device, all with a nice UI in spicy or remote-viewer which allows you to select the local USB device to share. It would be nice when you have downloaded an ISO file (eg debian ISO) not to have to dd it to a real USB device in order to then make it available to the VM via spice. It should be doable virtually without a real device using dummy_hcd and g_mass_storage kernel modules according to: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/373569/emulating-usb-device-with-a-file-using-g-mass-storage-udc-core-couldnt-find However those two modules are not packaged in stable 4.19 kernel: # modprobe dummy_hcd modprobe: FATAL: Module dummy_hcd not found in directory /lib/modules/4.19.0-8-amd64 # modprobe g_mass_storage modprobe: FATAL: Module g_mass_storage not found in directory /lib/modules/4.19.0-8-amd64 Note: this was requested a while ago but with another use in mind which had a better solution for the user: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=678731 Thanks in advance for your help, Sincerely, Laurent GUERBY
