Re: [Xen-devel] Re: [pvops xen/next ][iommu] attenpt to passthrough PCI-e usb controllor to PV domU SUCCESS :-)
Hello Jan,
How do these handle DMA related to the passthrough device in a PV-guest then ?
From what i remember from previous (debian) xen kernels was that at least
swiotlb=force was needed as kernel options to the domU kernel to passthrough
usb-controllers.
