Introduction 1.1. Project/Component Working Name: VirtualBox USB Device Capture 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Strony.Zhang 1.3 Date of This Document: 04 Aug, 2009 4. Technical Description Background: The VirtualBox is a virtualization software product. When VirtualBox runs on Solaris host OS), it should be able to proxy the USB devices plugged in the host OS to the guest OS depending on user's configuration. To achieve this, the VirtualBox needs to control the entire USB device completely and ensure the USB device in the pristine state for guest OS. No driver in host OS should be attached to the device. Therefore, the VirtualBox team developed a Monitor driver for capturing devices using the callback and a VirtualBox-specific USB client driver for transferring data between guest OS and device. Problem: When the USB device is plugged in the Solaris system, usba (7D) will create the compatible names and then attach the corresponding USB client driver to it by default. During the process, the VirtualBox doesn't have a chance to request to attach its own driver to the USB device in which it is interested. Solution: The usba(7D) provides the registration entry to VirtualBox for the callback and makes the Virtual-specific USB client driver higher priority than the default USB client driver. When a USB device is plugged in the system, the usba(7D) will first call the registered callback function to query if VirtualBox wants to capture the device. If yes, the VirtualBox-specific USB client driver will be attached to the device. Once the VirtualBox exits or user doesn't want to access the USB device on guest OS, the VirtualBox will unregister the callback and then Solaris will take over the USB device taken by VirtualBox. Interfaces: The interfaces are Contracted Project Private since they are intended to be only used by the VirtualBox. The following new Interfaces provided by this project: |----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Interfaces | Class. | Comments | |----------------------------------------------------------------------- | struct usb_dev_str(9s) | C.P.P. | usb capture device info | | usb_register_dev_driver(9f) | C.P.P | usb capture register | | usb_unregister_dev_driver(9f) | C.P.P | usb capture unregister | | usb_dev_driver_callback() | C.P.P | usb capture callback | |----------------------------------------------------------------------- They will be available in the . /* * getting the device strings of manufacturer, product and serial number */ typedef struct usb_dev_str { char *usb_mfg; /* manufacturer string */ char *usb_product; /* product string */ char *usb_serialno; /* serial number string */ } usb_dev_str_t; The callback interface is: /* * Return Values: * USB_SUCCESS - VirtualBox will capture the device * USB_FAILURE - VirtualBox will not capture the device */ typedef int (*usb_dev_driver_callback)( usb_dev_descr_t *dev_descr, /* ptr to device descriptor */ usb_dev_str_t *dev_str, /* ptr to device strings */ char *path, /* ptr to physical path */ int bus, /* USB bus address */ int port, /* USB port number */ char **drv, /* capture driver name */ void *reserved) usb_dev_driver_t; If VirtualBox wants to capture the device, the client driver name to be attached to the device will be returned by the parameter (char **drv). The callback registration and unregistration interfaces are: int usb_register_dev_driver(dev_info_t *dip, usb_dev_driver_t cb); void usb_unregister_dev_driver(dev_info_t *dip); The return value of usb_register_dev_driver() will be USB_SUCCESS or USB_FAILURE which indicates that the callback registration was successful or failed. 5.

This seems to me to be lacking some necessary configuration. For example, if systems are configured with "exclude: scsa2usb" as a matter of site security, it would seem that I could bypass this by using virtualbox? Is it sensible to allow virtualbox to take over all USB devices without any configurability? If I plug in a USB device, let's say a memory stick, how does the system decide if native Solaris wants to use it, or an OS instance in Virtualbox, or which one across potentially several virtualboxes? -- Andrew From ramshankar@sun.com Wed Aug 12 08:36:49 2009 Received: from sunmail3mpk.sfbay.sun.com (sunmail3mpk.SFBay.Sun.COM [129.146.11.52]) by sac.sfbay.sun.com (8.13.8+Sun/8.13.8) with ESMTP id n7CFanB8006969 for ; Wed, 12 Aug 2009 08:36:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: from nwk-avmta-1.SFBay.Sun.COM (nwk-avmta-1.SFBay.Sun.COM [129.146.11.74]) by sunmail3mpk.sfbay.sun.com (8.13.7+Sun/8.13.7/ENSMAIL,v2.2) with ESMTP id n7CFalDd003673; Wed, 12 Aug 2009 08:36:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: from pmxchannel-daemon.nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM by nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM (Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)) id <0KO900H0FSPD3500@nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM>; Wed, 12 Aug 2009 08:36:49 -0700 (PDT) Received: from gmp-eb-inf-1.sun.com ([192.18.6.21]) by nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM (Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)) with ESMTP id <0KO900EDKSPBDPF0@nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM>; Wed, 12 Aug 2009 08:36:48 -0700 (PDT) Received: from fe-emea-10.sun.com (gmp-eb-lb-1-fe1.eu.sun.com [192.18.6.7] (may be forged)) by gmp-eb-inf-1.sun.com (8.13.7+Sun/8.12.9) with ESMTP id n7CFalhf006920; Wed, 12 Aug 2009 15:36:47 +0000 (GMT) Received: from conversion-daemon.fe-emea-10.sun.com by fe-emea-10.sun.com (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 7u2-7.02 64bit (built Apr 16 2009)) id <0KO900K00SACEO00@fe-emea-10.sun.com>; Wed, 12 Aug 2009 16:36:38 +0100 (BST) Received: from [10.16.204.30] ([unknown] [10.16.204.30]) by fe-emea-10.sun.com (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 7u2-7.02 64bit (built Apr 16 2009)) with ESMTPSA id <0KO90098ZSP1BWF0@fe-emea-10.sun.com>; Wed, 12 Aug 2009 16:36:37 +0100 (BST) Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2009 17:36:37 +0200 From: Ramshankar Subject: Re: VirtualBox USB Device Capture [PSARC/2009/422 08/12/2009] In-reply-to: <4A82DF15.80304@sun.com> Sender: Ramshankar.Venkataraman@sun.com To: Andrew Gabriel Cc: Jerry Gilliam , PSARC-ext@sun.com, Strony Zhang , usb-tech@sun.com Message-id: <4A82E185.4080903@sun.com> MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT X-PMX-Version: 5.4.1.325704 References: <4A7A1EFD.5070404@sun.com> <4A82DF15.80304@sun.com> User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 (X11/20090505) Status: RO Content-Length: 2320 No, VirtualBox will not support USB on S10 hosts then.

If you do this with VMware, you first tell vmware to capture e.g. the next USB memory stick and to forward it.
