Hi All,
Fedora 31
qemu-kvm-4.1.0-5.fc31.x86_64
If I have a virtual machine running and I insert a
flash drive into a USB socket, the virtual machine
steels the flash drive from the host, not that it
will actually work in the VM, which they don't.
To get them to work in my VM's I have to add them
as a piece of hardware to my configuration, then
they work.
I have to exit all my VM's to be able to see my flash
drives again from the hosts system (FC31). This is
a pain in the neck.
Any way around this?
Many thanks,
-T

Has the USB controller been assigned as a PCI device to the VM? If so it
would be
detached from the host machine.
Many thanks,

It just says USB Controller. I will look more closely
tomorrow to see if there is anything like that.

I think this indicates that the USB controller is managed as a PCI device,
but it has been a few years since I looked at this.
I found https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsHostDev:
"For PCI devices, when managed is "yes" it is detached from the host
before
being passed on to the guest and reattached to the host after the guest
exits. If managed is omitted or "no", the user is responsible to call
virNodeDeviceDetachFlags (or virsh nodedev-detach before starting the guest
or hot-plugging the device and virNodeDeviceReAttach (or virsh
nodedev-reattach) after hot-unplug or stopping the guest."
Since managed is omitted, it seems the automatic detach/reattach should not
be done.
https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html says:
"Controllers <https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsControllers>
Depending on the guest architecture, some device buses can appear more than
once, with a group of virtual devices tied to a virtual controller.
Normally, libvirt can automatically infer such controllers without
requiring explicit XML markup, but sometimes it is necessary to provide an
explicit controller element, notably when planning the PCI topology
<https://libvirt.org/pci-hotplug.html> for guests where device hotplug is
expected."

I doubt we'll get the graphics here. Image files, especially larger ones, are frowned
upon
on these mailing lists. Some folks still use links which have data charges. If you want
to show images you'll have to place them someplace and put the URL in your message.
Anyway, if you add HW to your system and pick "Controller" and then pick USB3
and look
at the XML (next to Details) you'll see it defaults to model="qemu-xhci".

My Windows 10 VM now gives back flash drives, but first
I had to take a trip over to
virtio-win-0.1.173.2.iso/virtio-win-gt-x64.msi
Now my Windows 7 VM can't find them at all, unless I mount them
as hardware. And that is fine with me. virtio-win-0.1.173.2.iso
is missing the USB driver for Windows 7. I opened a bug
report on it:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1773152
Thank you!

USB options may depend on previous choices. For example, different
"machine types" have different capabilities.

Hi George,
The USB3 driver works perfectly with my Son-of-Frankenstein
(Windows 10) VM, but is missing its drivers from Windows 7.
I opened a bug report on it:

If you are using the Virtual Machine Manager?
On the top Menu select "Virtual Machine--->Redirect USB Device" and uncheck
the flash drive in question
to release it and return it to the host system.

Well, it works fine for me here on multiple hosts.
If you want to keep the guest from grabbing the USB device you could always remove the USB
Redirect from
the HW in the guest.

No, but that shouldn't make a difference. It would be HW level. What HW is presented
to the guest.
I do have a Win10 iso if I have time I'll install to see if this does make a
difference.

Installed Win10-Pro. Works the same as with an F31 guest.

Thank you!
When I get some office time on Friday, I will do a side by comparison of
yours vs mine. Bet I did something dumb.

If I have a virtual machine running and I insert a

steels the flash drive from the host, not that it
will actually work in the VM, which they don't.
To get them to work in my VM's I have to add them
as a piece of hardware to my configuration, then
they work.
Oh, BTW, I forgot to add that I just installed an F31 system under qemu and I didn't
have to do anything
to use a flash drive in the VM. The host system is also F31.

The only way I can get a flash drive to actually work
in my VM's is to add it as a piece of hardware in the
manager (and reboot the VM).

No need here.
Maybe something odd in your machine's xml definition.

I have to exit all my VM's to be able to see my flash
drives again from the hosts system (FC31). This is
a pain in the neck.
Any way around this?
Many thanks,

Found the nec-xhci driver for Windows 7:
https://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/drivers/driversdetails?driveri...
But it still steels my drive. I will open a bug report
on it at Fedora's bugzilla
