Please note that since I did not specify a Device ID (a.k.a. Host
Address) but only the bus (3), I'd expect all devices on bus 3 to be
(automatically) added to the guest usb, even if they are plugged into
the host after Qemu is started. I take the liberty of changing the
status to "Opinion", if you still deem it invalid, feel free to close.
** Changed in: qemu

Title:
Qemu does not hotplug (usb) devices
Status in QEMU:
Opinion
Bug description:
Qemu passes through all devices on Bus 3 with host-usb all right when
issued so on the command line such as
... -device usb-ehci,id=USBCtrl -device host-
usb,bus=USBCtrl.0,hostaddr=5
but it does not pass through the devices newly hotplugged to the host
after Qemu has already started. One has to explicitly issue
device_add host-usb,bus=USBCtrl.0 ....
on the monitor, in order for the guest (Win7 in my case) to see those
devices.
