Hi guys,
I'm interested in USB redirection support in SPICE. Can you answer the following questions me or point me to the docs where they are answered:

* What is the current status ? Website says in progress. What exactly does and doesn't work?

As long as you use a Linux client machine everything works. The windows spice client USB
support is not yet fully feature complete.

* Doesn USB 2.0/3.0 work?

USB-2.0 work, simple USB-3.0 devices like usb 3.0 thumb drives work, but will show up
as a 2.0 device in the guest. Full 3.0 support is still a while away.

* How do I setup redirection (or I need just the spice connection) ?

In virt-manager make sure you're using a spice connection, that the usb-controller model is set to "Usb 2" and then add a number of USB Redirection devices, (up to 4, having more then 1 allows you to redirect more then 1 USB device simultaneously).

* Can SPICE and the USB redir code work on bare-metal or non KVM virtual machines ?

No (not atm, and unlikely to change soon)
Work also on xen, used for one year on test system without problem.
I'll do the xl patch probably for xen 4.4.

Regards,

Hans
