[Spice-devel] [PATCH v2 0/2] Support UsbDk backend

[Kirill Moizik]

From: Kirill Moizik <kirillm at daynix.com>

UsbDk (USB Development Kit) is a set of software components meant to provide
Windows user mode applications with direct and exclusive access to USB devices.

Some distinctive UsbDk properties are:

1. UsbDk supports all types of devices and interfaces - bulk, isochronous,
   composite, HID etc.
2. Device capture process is totally dynamic, i.e. no inf files and
   self-signing needed, any device can be captured.
3. UsbDk co-exists with original device driver, when the device is not
   captured original driver is loaded by the system automatically.
4. If user mode client terminates unexpectedly for any reason system reverts
   to original device driver immediately.
5. Being USB filter driver UsbDk doesn't require WHQL-ing
   as per Microsoft requirements.

UsbDk supports all Windows OS versions staring from Windows XP,
i.e. XP/Vista/7/8/8.1/2003/2008/2008R2/2012/2012R2.
Both 32 and 64 bit architectures are supported.

UsbDk is fully open source and distributed under Apache 2.0 license.
