Hi,

I need USB Passthrough for my work(pv). For that I am trying to write USB
front and back drivers. Besides these what else is needed for the
Passthrough to work?
Should I have to also do the part to add device model(xl) or is it already
done.

I got some patches for adding the front-end driver. Have anyone worked on
backend for usb?

If anyone could point me to anything that might help, that would be
wonderful. I have minimal experience in Linux driver.

Regards
Ajmal
