Default Qemu on OpenBsd

Do we have anyone here that uses Qemu on OpenBsd, ? I am having trouble figuring out how to mount a usb device, to a guest system on Qemu, everything I find when searching applied to Linux, and does not work on OpenBsd.
Here is what I use to start the VM, and it works fine. The question is , how/where to append the correct syntax (option) so it also mounts the usb device, /devsd1i in the vm.
Below, is a shell script I use, it is executable, and starts the VM
Code:
$ start-debian9
Code:
cd /home/garry/Images/ISO-images/Debian-9/
ulimit -d 3000000
qemu-system-x86_64 -rtc base=localtime -net user,hostfwd=tcp::10080-:80,hostfwd=tcp::10022-:22, -net nic -m 1000 -drive format=raw,file=debian9.img
I do see in the qemu manual:
Quote:
USB options

-usb
Enable the USB driver (if it is not used by default yet).

-usbdevice devname
Add the USB device devname. Note that this option is deprecated,
please use "-device usb-..." instead.
But it is not clear to me, where I would add the option, in my startup script. Also I am sure I would need to run the start up script as root, since on my system only root can mount anything,...I could maybe setup a "doas" option to avoid that, but would rather not.
Any way, any help is appreciated. Thanks

Garry,

IIRC, Qemu on OpenBSD does not support USB device pass through. The USB network redirection feature is disabled in the Port build.

Ok, thanks, that is kind of what I figured, based on some stuff I found searching and the results of my attempts. Thanks for confirming this though.
