Subject: [PATCH] udev: add rules for qemu guests
Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2011 10:44:05 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1295952245-3038-1-git-send-email-kraxel@redhat.com> (raw)
These patches enable usb autosuspend for the qemu emulated HID devices.
This reduces the cpu load for idle guests with a hid device attached
because the linux kernel will suspend the usb bus then and qemu can stop
running a 1000 Hz to emulate the (active) UHCI controller.
