Public bug reported:
QEMU emulator version 2.4.50 with kernel kvm module from linux kernel
3.16.0 or 4.2.3
Since upgrading from Yosemite to El Capitan - USB passthru does not
work. Note USB passthru worked perfectly with Maverick and Yosemite. I
attempt to use different USB hosts. I found a patch for widows xp that
had similar problem the patch was applied in 2012. Note NO problems with
USB passthru with windows or linux clients. If it matters the devices
that I am trying to passthru USB are smartcard reader and webcam. The
devices are present in El Capitan but do not function.
These are the massages from loading the VM (El Capitan). The first two
lines are from the clover bootloader. The ehci warnings are generated
when loading Mac Os X El Capitan.
