It wont work in LX or KVM either. Given LX is a branded zone that does ABI emulation, there is no linux kernel/linux drivers to hook up to the device either.
The qemu that works with our KVM is also quite old, I have not got USB or PCI passthrough to work with that. You can add the device with zonecfg but it will be passed as a disk to qemu and that obviously won't work. You might be able to use a RasberryPi and some software to expose the USB device over TCP. But I have not looked into that very much. Regards Jorge On 2018-05-17 17:38, j...@sonlawrence.com wrote: > What are the possibilities and limitations of passing through USB devices to > zones?
