Dear all, This series of patches introduces WebSocket to USB/IP. 0. Version info v6) # Added __rcu annotation to a RCU pointer to clear sparse warnings. # Corrected a copy to RCU pointer with rcu_rcu_assign_pointer(). # Added __user annotations to arguments of read/write method. # Added static to some functions which are not called from other files. # Removed unnecessary EXPORT_SYMBOLs. v5) # Added vendor/pruduct name conversion to port command. # Put initial value to pool_head in name.c. # Fixed list command exception when host option is omitted. # Fixed exception in case gai_strerror() returns NULL. # Fixed WebSocket connection close via proxy. # Fixed to stop WebSocket ping-pong on connection close. # Removed redundant usbipd daemon option. # Removed redundant SSL code had not been deleted. # Removed an unused local variable in WebSocket code. # Modified C++ reserved word in names.c as same as headers. v4) # Fixed regression of usbip list --remote v3) # Coding style for goto err labels are fixed. # Defined magic numbers for open_hc_device() argument. # Corrected include .../uapi/linux/usbip_ux.h as <linux/usbip_ux.h>. # Modified parameter notation in manuals not to use '='. # Fixed inappropriate version definition in tools/.../websocket/configure.ac. # Remved unnecessary COPYING and AUTHORS fil from tools/.../websocket/. # Added -version-info to libraries in tools/.../src. v2) # Formatted patches from linux-next. # Fixed change log word wrapping. # Removed SSL patches. # Fixed a bug that vendor and product names are not shown by 'usbws list -l' because usbip_names_init() was not called in libusbip.la. 1. Features included It also includes some independent features effective in themselves. 1) Exporting devices Export request and response PDU had been defined in a header but not been used. Now it works! Also, it supports senarios, for example, connect ubiquetous devices to a Linux based cloud service. In this senario, it's needed to establish connection from a device inside of firewall to a service outside. Exporting is suit for the senario. 2) User space transmission USB/IP transfer URBs in kernel space. It's better for performance but difficult to introduce application protocols. Like fuse for file systems, it allows to transfer URBs in user space. When usbip_ux.ko is loaded, it replaces kernel_sendmsg() and kernel_recvmsg() with user spcace interface. When USB/IP utilities find usbip_ux.ko, they start threads to read/write PDUs from/to usbip_ux.ko and send/recv them. 3) Replaceable protocols Both transmission(send/receive) and connection establishment are replaceable. 4) a WebSocket implementation It's made with Poco C++. DNS and proxy client are supported. I published scripts I used while developed the patches. http://linux-usbip-additions.blogspot.jp/2015/03/scripts-to-patch-and-ma ke-locally.html http://linux-usbip-additions.blogspot.jp/2015/03/test-scripts.html 2. Why WebSocket? It allows to use USB/IP in internet. WebSocket is widely used to encapsulate packets in HTTP and to carry them through firewall using HTTP port numbers. Assumed use case is a system that service in internet serves distributes devices in home or office networks. Service may be called as cloud and devices as ubiquitous.

Why userspace transmission? Userspace transmission and APIs provided by this series allow to apply application protocols to USB/IP. Why not use usbfs or libusb? a) Not only device(usbip-host) side, application(vhci-hcd) side must be handled. b) In device side, if using usbfs or libusb, many parts of usbip-common and usbip-host driver must be copied to userspace. It's not good for maintainability. Tunneling daemons can wrap TCP/IP with application protocol. They pass packets through loopback so this series has certain advantage regarding performance. It's important for small (IoT) devices. 4. Why exporting devices? Connection from outside firewall is usually blocked. So existing import request sent with attach command doesn't work. # usbipd (blocked)|| <--------- # usbip attach Firewall opens some ports, usually HTTP(80) and HTTPS(443), from inside. Then export request sent with new connect command works. # usbip connect -----------------------------> # usbipa (passed) Thank you, Nobuo Iwata <nobuo.iwata@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> // *** BLURB HERE ***
