<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
||
|
||
<P>
|
||
usbmuxd stands for "USB multiplexing daemon". This daemon is in charge of
|
||
multiplexing connections over USB to an iOS device. To users, it means
|
||
you can sync your music, contacts, photos, etc. over USB. To developers, it
|
||
means you can connect to any listening localhost socket on the device. usbmuxd
|
||
is not used for tethering data transfer which uses a dedicated USB interface as
|
||
a virtual network device. Multiple connections to different TCP ports can happen
|
||
in parallel. The higher-level layers are handled by libimobiledevice.
|
||
<P>
|
||
When usbmuxd is running (normally started, or stopped as a result of "udev"
|
||
auto-insertion messages or by systemd) it provides a socket interface in
|
||
"/var/run/usbmuxd" that is designed to be compatible with the socket interface
|
||
that is provided on Mac OS X.
|
||
<P>
|
||
You should also create a "usbmux" user that has access to USB devices on your
|
||
system. Alternatively, you can pass a different username using the -U argument.
|
||
<P>
|
||
Due to iOS 7 the daemon now also manages pairing records with iOS devices and
|
||
the host in "/var/lib/lockdown" (Linux) or "/var/db/lockdown" (Mac OS X).
|
||
Ensure proper permissions are setup for the daemon to access the directory.

|

|
||
<DL COMPACT>
|
||
<DT id="1"><B>-U, --user USER</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Change to this user after startup (needs USB privileges).
|
||
<DT id="2"><B>-f, --foreground</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Do not daemonize (implies one -v).
|
||
<DT id="3"><B>-n, --disable-hotplug</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Disables automatic discovery of devices on hotplug. Starting another instance
|
||
will trigger discovery instead.
|
||
<DT id="4"><B>-z, --enable-exit</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Enable "--exit" request from other instances and exit automatically if no
|
||
device is attached.
|
||
<DT id="5"><B>-u, --udev</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Run in udev operation mode (implies -n and -z).
|
||
<DT id="6"><B>-s, --systemd</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Run in systemd operation mode (implies -z and -f).
|
||
<DT id="7"><B>-x, --exit</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Notify a running instance to exit if there are no devices connected (sends
|
||
SIGUSR1 to running instance) and exit.
|
||
<DT id="8"><B>-X, --force-exit</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
Notify a running instance to exit even if there are still devices connected
|
||
(always works) and exit.
|
||
<DT id="9"><B>-v, --verbose</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
be verbose (use twice or more to increase verbose level).
|
||
<DT id="10"><B>-V, --version</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
print version information and exit.
|
||
<DT id="11"><B>-h, --help</B>
|
||
|
||
<DD>
|
||
prints usage information.
