[Pkg-libvirt-maintainers] Bug#522310: Bug#522310: virt-manager: recognizing USB devices requires restart of libvirt

[Andreas Unterkircher]

I tried again.

lsusb shows up the newly plugged in device
(Aladdin Knowledge Systems HASP v0.06):

unki at srv-mfm-vm02:~$ sudo lsusb

virsh nodedev-list at the same time :

virsh # nodedev-list
error: Failed to count node devices
error: this function is not supported by the hypervisor: virNodeNumOfDevices


after a restart of libvirtd it is working:

unki at srv-mfm-vm02:~$ sudo virsh nodedev-list

unki at srv-mfm-vm02:~$ ps ax | grep [h]ald
