+Companion controller support
|
|
|
|
+----------------------------
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+Companion controller support has been added recently. The operational
|
|
|
|
+model described above with two completely separate busses still works
|
|
|
|
+fine. Additionally the UHCI and OHCI controllers got the ability to
|
|
|
|
+attach to a usb bus created by EHCI as companion controllers. This is
|
|
|
|
+done by specifying the masterbus and firstport properties. masterbus
|
|
|
|
+specifies the bus name the controller should attach to. firstport
|
|
|
|
+specifies the first port the controller should attach to, which is
|
|
|
|
+needed as usually one ehci controller with six ports has three uhci
|
|
|
|
+companion controllers with two ports each.
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+There is a config file in docs which will do all this for you, just
|
|
|
|
+try ...
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+ qemu -readconfig docs/ich9-ehci-uhci.cfg
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
+... then use "bus=ehci.0" to assign your usb devices to that bus.
