   Hey #Bhyve/#FreeBSD people!

   I'm trying to manage USB passthrough into a guest, I can't find anything in the manpages. Is there something I'm missing?

     @pmdj "Not missing something" is a good answer! Thanks!

     I gotta figure out if I have a host I can give my homeassistant server. But thanks!

     @silverwizard Not currently supported, as far as I’m aware. The closest you can get is to pass through a whole USB host adapter PCI device to the guest, then all devices connected to its ports will end up in the (same) VM.
     Proper USB passthrough isn’t ridiculously difficult to implement by any stretch, but I guess nobody’s got around to it yet.
