http://xen.markmail.org/search/?q=Guy+Zana+[HVM+PCI+passthrough#query:Guy%20Zana%20%5BHVM%20PCI%20passthrough+page:1+mid:3u22wrh6hryfasno+state:results


I even saw the demo given by Neocleus at the Xen summit in Boston.

I really don't know the status in mainline (if they were accepted or not even).

Maybe you could follow up on that information and post information
back to the list?

Cheers,
Todd
