Diff to v2[1] version:

I did some basic testing today, and I'm seeing the device appear and disappear in the guest, which is great and much nicer than my ugly udev rule hack. I did find what I think is a bug though: if the USB device is plugged in at domain start, unplugging it while the domain is running does not cause it to disappear, and subsqeuently replugging it into the host causes a second instance of the device to appear in the guest.
Hi.
Hmm. Looks like you're using startupPolicy=optional otherwise it is not
possible to start domain without a device. But in this case the whole replug thing
is disabled and further I don't understand how the second instance of the device can appear.
If device is present at domain start then replug is in play. And I cannot reproduce the bug.
I am using startupPolicy optional, and I'm seeing the device attached and detached 100% of the time. I can start the domain with or without the device attached to the host, plug and unplug it and it appears and disappears from the guest, which is exactly the behavior I want. My domain XML is attached.
Hi,
did you actually see your device in guest or just some usb device? Because if domain is started without a device present on host then
libvirt inserts dummy device which is unusable actually. And this dummy device is kept until the end even if you plug device on node.
Sorry to be slow responding, I wanted to confirm that I could talk to the device in the guest. Today I wasn't able to reproduce the duplicate device in the guest. Eerything worked as I would expect: if the device wasn't plugged into the host, it wasn't shown by lsusb in the guest. Plugging in the device to the host caused it to appear in the guest. If the device was shown by lsusb in the guest I was able to talk to it.

I tested a few more times just now, and I saw the duplicate device appear in the guest the first time I tried, but I have not been able to reproduce it again after that.
Can you clarify on you use case?
My usecase is that I'm flashing the USB device with a program running in the VM. I keep the VM running, and when I need to reflash, I connect the device, so having the startupPolicy optional is useful.
