The server exports the +USB devices and the clients import them. The device driver for the exported +USB device runs on the client machine. + +The client may ask for the list of the exported USB devices. To get the list the +client opens a TCP/IP connection to the server, and sends an OP_REQ_DEVLIST +packet on top of the TCP/IP connection (so the actual OP_REQ_DEVLIST may be sent +in one or more pieces at the low level transport layer). The server sends back +the OP_REP_DEVLIST packet which lists the exported USB devices. Finally the +TCP/IP connection is closed. + +:: + + virtual host controller usb host + "client" "server" + (imports USB devices) (exports USB devices) + | | + | OP_REQ_DEVLIST | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | OP_REP_DEVLIST | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | | + +Once the client knows the list of exported USB devices it may decide to use one +of them. First the client opens a TCP/IP connection to the server and +sends an OP_REQ_IMPORT packet. The server replies with OP_REP_IMPORT. If the +import was successful the TCP/IP connection remains open and will be used +to transfer the URB traffic between the client and the server. The client may +send two types of packets: the USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT to submit an URB, and +USBIP_CMD_UNLINK to unlink a previously submitted URB. The answers of the +server may be USBIP_RET_SUBMIT and USBIP_RET_UNLINK respectively. + +:: + + virtual host controller usb host + "client" "server" + (imports USB devices) (exports USB devices) + | | + | OP_REQ_IMPORT | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | OP_REP_IMPORT | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = n) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_RET_SUBMIT(seqnum = n) | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | . | + | : | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = m) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = m+1) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = m+2) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_RET_SUBMIT(seqnum = m) | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = m+3) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_RET_SUBMIT(seqnum = m+1) | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = m+4) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_RET_SUBMIT(seqnum = m+2) | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | . | + | : | + +For UNLINK, note that after a successful USBIP_RET_UNLINK, the unlinked URB +submission would not have a corresponding USBIP_RET_SUBMIT (this is explained in +function stub_recv_cmd_unlink of drivers/usb/usbip/stub_rx.c). + +:: + + virtual host controller usb host + "client" "server" + (imports USB devices) (exports USB devices) + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = p) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_UNLINK | + | (seqnum = p+1, unlink_seqnum = p) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_RET_UNLINK | + | (seqnum = p+1, status = -ECONNRESET) | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | | + | Note: No USBIP_RET_SUBMIT(seqnum = p) | + | <--X---X---X---X---X---X---X---X---X---X---X--- | + | . | + | : | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_SUBMIT(seqnum = q) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_RET_SUBMIT(seqnum = q) | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | | + | USBIP_CMD_UNLINK | + | (seqnum = q+1, unlink_seqnum = q) | + | ----------------------------------------------> | + | | + | USBIP_RET_UNLINK | + | (seqnum = q+1, status = 0) | + | <---------------------------------------------- | + | | + +The fields are in network (big endian) byte order meaning that the most significant +byte (MSB) is stored at the lowest address. + +Protocol Version +================ + +The documented USBIP version is v1.1.1.
