1 .TH USBIP "8" "February 2009" "usbip" "System Administration Utilities" 2 .SH NAME 3 usbipd \- USB/IP server daemon 4 .SH SYNOPSIS 5 .B usbipd 6 [\fIoptions\fR] 7 8 .SH DESCRIPTION 9 .B usbipd 10 provides USB/IP clients access to exported USB devices. 11 12 Devices have to explicitly be exported using 13 .B usbip bind 14 before usbipd makes them available to other hosts. 15 16 The daemon accepts connections from USB/IP clients 17 on TCP port 3240 by default. 18 19 .SH OPTIONS 20 .HP 21 \fB\-4\fR, \fB\-\-ipv4\fR 22 .IP 23 Bind to IPv4. Default is both. 24 .PP 25 26 .HP 27 \fB\-6\fR, \fB\-\-ipv6\fR 28 .IP 29 Bind to IPv6. Default is both. 30 .PP 31 32 .HP 33 \fB\-e\fR, \fB\-\-device\fR 34 .IP 35 Run in device mode. Rather than drive an attached device, create a virtual UDC to bind gadgets to. 36 .PP 37 38 .HP 39 \fB\-D\fR, \fB\-\-daemon\fR 40 .IP 41 Run as a daemon process. 42 .PP 43 44 .HP 45 \fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-debug\fR 46 .IP 47 Print debugging information. 48 .PP 49 50 .HP 51 \fB\-PFILE\fR, \fB\-\-pid FILE\fR 52 .IP 53 Write process id to FILE. 54 .br 55 If no FILE specified, use /var/run/usbipd.pid 56 .PP 57 58 \fB\-tPORT\fR, \fB\-\-tcp\-port PORT\fR 59 .IP 60 Listen on TCP/IP port PORT. 61 .PP 62 63 \fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR 64 .IP 65 Print the program help message and exit. 66 .PP 67 68 .HP 69 \fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR 70 .IP 71 Show version. 72 .PP 73 74 .SH LIMITATIONS 75 76 .B usbipd 77 offers no authentication or authorization for USB/IP. Any 78 USB/IP client can connect and use exported devices. 79 80 .SH EXAMPLES 81 82 server:# modprobe usbip-host 83 84 server:# usbipd -D 85 - Start usbip daemon. 86 87 server:# usbip list --local 88 - List driver assignments for usb devices. 89 90 server:# usbip bind --busid=1-2 91 - Bind usbip-host.ko to the device of busid 1-2. 92 - A usb device 1-2 is now exportable to other hosts! 93 - Use 'usbip unbind --busid=1-2' when you want to shutdown exporting and use the device locally. 94 95 The following example shows the usage of device mode 96 97 server:# modprobe usbip-vudc 98 - Use /sys/class/udc/ interface. 99 - usbip-host is independent of this module. 100 101 server:# usbipd -e -D 102 - Start usbip daemon in device mode. 103 104 server:# modprobe g_mass_storage file=/tmp/tmp.img 105 - Bind a gadget to usbip-vudc. 106 - in this example, a mass storage gadget is bound. 107 108 server:# usbip list --device 109 - List gadgets exported by local usbipd server. 110 111 server:# modprobe -r g_mass_storage 112 - Unbind a gadget from usbip-vudc. 113 - in this example, the previous mass storage gadget is unbound. 114 115 .SH "SEE ALSO" 116 \fBusbip\fP\fB(8)\fB\fP 117
