Re: [Xen-users] Xen DomU Communication Problems



Hello Sarah,

However, I've tried pci passthrough in the past several times and so far have had absolutely no luck.

first of all, you need to hide the PCI device (I guess it's a controller-card?). You need to find out the ID of you pci-device:

dom0 # lspci

I can see for example, my onboard network controller:
00:07.0 Bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP61 Ethernet (rev a2)

So, the device ID is 00:07.0
To hide the device in dom0, I use the pciback.hide option in my bootloader:

just add pciback.hide=(00:07.0) to your module line in grub.conf or menu.lst

Next you add the following to your domU config-file:

pci = [ '00:07.0' ]

That's it. If you can't see the pci device in your domU try to add the noirqdebug option to your module line (grub.conf) and your domU config (extra = "noirqdebug").

Hope it helps,

Greetz Holger
