[Requirements]
    - USB/IP device drivers
        Its source code is included under $(top)/drivers/.

    - sysfsutils >= 2.0.0
        sysfsutils library

    - libwrap0-dev
        tcp wrapper library

    - gcc >= 4.0

    - libglib2.0-dev >= 2.6.0

    - libtool, automake >= 1.9, autoconf >= 2.5.0, pkg-config

[Install]
    0. Skip here if you see a configure script.
        $ ./autogen.sh

    1. Compile & install.
        $ ./configure
        $ make install

    2. Compile & install USB/IP drivers if not yet.

[Usage]
    server:# (Attach your USB device physically.)

    server:# insmod usbip-core.ko
    server:# insmod usbip-host.ko
        - It was formerly named as stub.ko.

    server:# usbipd -D
        - Start usbip daemon.

    server:# usbip_bind_driver --list
        - List driver assignments for usb devices.

    server:# usbip_bind_driver --usbip 1-2
        - Bind usbip-host.ko to the device of busid 1-2.
        - A usb device 1-2 is now exportable to other hosts!
        - Use 'usbip_bind_driver --other 1-2' when you want to shutdown exporting
          and use the device locally.


    client:# insmod usbip-core.ko
    client:# insmod vhci-hcd.ko
        - It was formerly named as vhci.ko.

    client:# usbip --list server
        - List exportable usb devices on the server.

    client:# usbip --attach server 1-2
        - Connect the remote USB device.

    client:# usbip --port
        - Show virtual port status.

    client:# usbip --detach 0
        - Detach the usb device.


[Output Example]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- SERVER SIDE (physically attach your USB devices to this host) ----------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
trois:# insmod (somewhere)/usbip-core.ko
trois:# insmod (somewhere)/usbip-host.ko
trois:# usbipd -D

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In another terminal, let's look up what usb devices are physically attached to
this host.  We can see a usb storage device of busid 3-3.2 is now bound to
usb-storage driver. To export this device, we first mark the device as
"exportable"; the device is bound to usbip driver. Please remember you can not
export a usb hub.

   trois:# usbip_bind_driver --list
   List USB devices
   - busid 3-3.2 (04bb:0206)
       3-3.2:1.0 -> usb-storage

   - busid 3-3.1 (08bb:2702)
       3-3.1:1.0 -> snd-usb-audio
       3-3.1:1.1 -> snd-usb-audio

   - busid 3-3 (0409:0058)
       3-3:1.0 -> hub

   - busid 3-2 (0711:0902)
       3-2:1.0 -> none

   - busid 1-1 (05a9:a511)
       1-1:1.0 -> ov511

   - busid 4-1 (046d:08b2)
       4-1:1.0 -> none
       4-1:1.1 -> none
       4-1:1.2 -> none

   - busid 5-2 (058f:9254)
       5-2:1.0 -> hub

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark the device of busid 3-3.2 as exportable.

   trois:# usbip_bind_driver --usbip 3-3.2
   ** (process:24621): DEBUG:  3-3.2:1.0   -> none
   ** (process:24621): DEBUG: write "add 3-3.2" to /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usbip/match_busid
   ** Message: bind 3-3.2 to usbip, complete!

   trois:# usbip_bind_driver --list
   List USB devices
   - busid 3-3.2 (04bb:0206)
           3-3.2:1.0 -> usbip
   (snip)

Iterate the above operation for other devices if you like.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- CLIENT SIDE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First, let's list available remote devices which are marked as exportable in
the server host.

[Check List]
    - See Debug Tips in the project wiki.
        - http://usbip.wiki.sourceforge.net/how-to-debug-usbip
    - usbip-host.ko must be bound to the target device.
        - See /proc/bus/usb/devices and find "Driver=..." lines of the device.
    - Shutdown firewall.
        - usbip now uses TCP port 3240.
    - Disable SELinux.
    - If possible, compile your kernel with CONFIG_USB_DEBUG flag and try
      again.
    - Check your kernel and daemon messages.
        ex. /var/log/{messages, kern.log, daemon.log, syslog}
