+USB controllers
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+XHCI controller support
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+QEMU has XHCI host adapter support.  The XHCI hardware design is much
+more virtualization-friendly when compared to EHCI and UHCI, thus XHCI
+emulation uses less resources (especially CPU).  So if your guest
+supports XHCI (which should be the case for any operating system
+released around 2010 or later) we recommend using it:
+
+    qemu -device qemu-xhci
+
+XHCI supports USB 1.1, USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 devices, so this is the
+only controller you need.  With only a single USB controller (and
+therefore only a single USB bus) present in the system there is no
+need to use the bus= parameter when adding USB devices.
+
+
+EHCI controller support
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The QEMU EHCI Adapter supports USB 2.0 devices.  It can be used either
+standalone or with companion controllers (UHCI, OHCI) for USB 1.1
+devices.  The companion controller setup is more convenient to use
+because it provides a single USB bus supporting both USB 2.0 and USB
+1.1 devices.  See next section for details.
+
+When running EHCI in standalone mode you can add UHCI or OHCI
+controllers for USB 1.1 devices too.  Each controller creates its own
+bus though, so there are two completely separate USB buses: One USB
+1.1 bus driven by the UHCI controller and one USB 2.0 bus driven by
+the EHCI controller.  Devices must be attached to the correct
+controller manually.
+
+The easiest way to add a UHCI controller to a ``pc`` machine is the
+``-usb`` switch.  QEMU will create the UHCI controller as function of
+the PIIX3 chipset.  The USB 1.1 bus will carry the name ``usb-bus.0``.
+
+You can use the standard ``-device`` switch to add a EHCI controller to
+your virtual machine.  It is strongly recommended to specify an ID for
+the controller so the USB 2.0 bus gets an individual name, for example
+``-device usb-ehci,id=ehci``.  This will give you a USB 2.0 bus named
+``ehci.0``.
+
+When adding USB devices using the ``-device`` switch you can specify the
+bus they should be attached to.  Here is a complete example:
+
+.. parsed-literal::
+
+    |qemu_system| -M pc ${otheroptions}                        \\
+        -drive if=none,id=usbstick,format=raw,file=/path/to/image   \\
+        -usb                                                        \\
+        -device usb-ehci,id=ehci                                    \\
+        -device usb-tablet,bus=usb-bus.0                            \\
+        -device usb-storage,bus=ehci.0,drive=usbstick
+
+This attaches a USB tablet to the UHCI adapter and a USB mass storage
+device to the EHCI adapter.
+
+
+Companion controller support
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The UHCI and OHCI controllers can attach to a USB bus created by EHCI
+as companion controllers.  This is done by specifying the ``masterbus``
+and ``firstport`` properties.  ``masterbus`` specifies the bus name the
+controller should attach to.  ``firstport`` specifies the first port the
+controller should attach to, which is needed as usually one EHCI
+controller with six ports has three UHCI companion controllers with
+two ports each.
+
+There is a config file in docs which will do all this for
+you, which you can use like this:
+
+.. parsed-literal::
+
+   |qemu_system| -readconfig docs/config/ich9-ehci-uhci.cfg
+
+Then use ``bus=ehci.0`` to assign your USB devices to that bus.
+
+Using the ``-usb`` switch for ``q35`` machines will create a similar
+USB controller configuration.
