usbredir README --------------- usbredir is a protocol for redirection USB traffic from a single USB device, to a different (virtual) machine then the one to which the USB device is attached. See usb-redirection-protocol.txt for the description / definition of this protocol. This package contains a number of libraries to help implementing support for usbredir and a few simple usbredir applications: usbredirparser: A library containing the parser for the usbredir protocol usbredirhost: A library implementing the usb-host (*) side of a usbredir connection. All that an application wishing to implement an usb-host needs to do is: * Provide a libusb device handle for the device * Provide write and read callbacks for the actual transport of usbredir data * Monitor for usbredir and libusb read/write events and call their handlers *) The side to which the actual USB device is attached, also see the definitions section in usb-redirection-protocol.txt usbredirserver: A simple tcp server usb-host, using usbredirhost usbredirtestclient: A small testclient for the usbredir protocol over tcp, using usbredirparser The upstream git repository can be found at http://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/usbredir Bug reports can be filed against the Spice/usbredir component: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/usbredir/issues You can also send patches to the spice-devel mailing list: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel Last updated 03 August 2018, by Victor Toso
