Support for the Raspberry Pi

[Evangelos]

Hello to the team,

I am currently trying to build the usbip on the Raspberry Pi (currently having the Pi 2 model B) but without success.
I've also tried the "brother" project of usbip but it is long now abandoned.

Do you have a how-to or a quick solution on how to run it on the PI?

Thank you
Evangelos

Server: Raspbian "Jessie"
Kernel 3.18 for rpi2 (by default only one with headers)
Followed step by step: https://sourceforge.net/p/ipusb/wiki/ipusb/
And: https://sourceforge.net/p/ipusb/wiki/ipusb-kmod/

Added lines to load module and launch demon at startup in rc.local
insmod /path/to/module/ipusb-host.ko
nohup ipusbd > /root/.ipusb.log &

Client: Windows 10 (if client is linux one should definitely use usbip)
Boot with "Disable driver signature enforcement"
shutdown /o /r, troubleshootings, advanced option, startup settings
Install drivers as described in USAGE file from win-kmod
install client
Launch it and add server ip/name
Attach device works.
Detach crashes gui.

The guy requiring this setting will soon make further test about sharing USB devices

Tip: Udev rule to auto bind device automagically

/etc/udev/rules.d/01-usbip.rules
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="xxxx", ATTR{idProduct}=="yyyy", RUN+="/usr/local/bin/usbip_udev.sh bind xxxx yyyy"

/usr/local/bin/usbip_udev.sh
#!/bin/sh
bus=$(ipusb list -l | sed -n "/busid.${2}:${3}/ { s/. busid //; s/ .*$//; p}")

ipusb ${1} --busid ${bus}

Hope this to be useful to someone, even thread is very old.
If rpi2 provided 3.14 kernel, then would probably use "usbip" instead.
