Is there USB Hotplug already in version 6.8.3? My USB extender in the VM keeps disconnecting. Need this.

Hi.  Is there USB Hotplug in v 6.8.3 now?  I use usb extender via rj45.  For some reason, it suddenly disconnects.  Once disconnected, nothing works except turn vm off, and on again.  I'd like to have the hotplug functionality so worst case scenario, I can just unplug usb, and plug it back in to get it detected.

You need to pass through a controller to the VM for your use case.

You can also try the Libvirt USB hotplug plugin to manually replug the devices to the VM without the need to restart the VM.
