USB Monitor support

Wireshark

The wireshark software USB capture can capture URBs (USB Request Blocks) rather than raw USB packets when device connect to host directly. To capture raw USB packets, a sniffer is needed.

Linux

1. Install Wireshark:

   sudo apt update
   sudo apt install wireshark
   

2. (Optional) Configure Wireshark

Wireshark official documentation: https://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/USB

3. Load the usbmon kernel module and run Wireshark:

   sudo modprobe usbmon
   sudo wireshark
   

4. Find bus the device connects:

   $ adb devices -l
   List of devices attached
   1234                   device usb:1-9.4 product:adb dev model:adb_board device:NuttX device transport_id:1000
   
   $ dmesg
   [3713722.861582] usb 1-9.4: New USB device found, idVendor=18d1, idProduct=4e11, bcdDevice= 1.01
   
   $ lsusb
   Bus 001 Device 035: ID 18d1:4e11 Google Inc. Nexus One
   

5. Filter address

• Select usbmon (Bus 001): usbmon1

• Wireshark filter (Bus 001 Device 035): usb.addr[0:4] == “1.35”

6. Example

Capturing ADB packets with filter (usb.addr[0:4] == “1.35”), on board ESP32S3-DevKit:ADB:

adb -s 1234 shell ls /dev/
