1. The usbip_status file is no longer created for interface 0, but for the whole device (such as /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.2/usb1/1-1/usbip_status). 2. Per interface information, such as interface class or protocol, is no longer sent/received. Only device specific information is transmitted. 3. Since the driver was moved one level below in the USB architecture, there is no need to bind/unbind each interface, just the device as a whole. > > Please make both of these EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(), like the rest of the USB > symbols are. Will fix in V2.
