Hi,
I'm running Xen v4.9 on DRA7 (OMAP5/ArmV7) with Linux kernel v3.14 (yikes!!) on
dom0 and domU.
I'm struggling to get USB passthrough working using pvUSB.
My domU config file contains
usb = 1
usbctrl = ['type=qusb,version=2,ports=4', 'type=qusb,version=1, ports=4', ]
I can see the vusb-0 and vusb-1 platform devices in /sys/devices
And the following message on domU kernel log
[ 1.849572] xenbus_probe_frontend: Device with no driver: device/vusb/0
[ 1.849627] xenbus_probe_frontend: Device with no driver: device/vusb/1
This means that there is no device driver for the vusb host controllers.
What is the way forward? Do I need to apply some patches to the domU kernel to
add support for the USB frontend HCD drivers?
This is one mandatory step, yes. You'll need:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/23/34
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/23/36
OK, after applying the above 2 patches to v4.12 kernel for domU I'm able to see
the xen HCD driver
enumerate, but it times out most likely due to the missing pvusb backend.

The question is whether this will be enough for you to make it work: the
pvusb backend is qemu based. I'm not sure this will just work on ARM.
Backends in QEMU should just work with ARM. Although, I haven't tried the PVUSB
one.
Newbie question now. How do I start the QEMU pvusb backend on dom0?
If I am not mistaken, the backend should be started by
"/etc/init.d/xencommons start" which also start xenstore and all the
userspace components for Xen.
So you should have a QEMU running in Dom0. Can you check if it is the case?
Also, I would check that QEMU has been built with the PV USB backend. It
depends on libusb. I am not entirely sure if the build system will
require it and will therefore fault if it is not installed.
Juergen, do you have other idea why it would timeout?
