Re: [Xen-users] xen-pciback always gives error: Unknown parameter `1)'



Thanks for your reply,
what exactly do you mean by "live binding"? As I showed in the code example, I tried to do this in the running system using modprobe.

I will look into recompiling the kernel, but I still wonder if there is a bug that prevents xen-pciback to run probably in this configuration.

If you are using the stock kernel and pciback as a module, then you have
to use live binding, not grub.

Alternatively, rebuild the kernel with pciback built-in (not as a
module) and that will allow you to use grub.

Supposedly you can rebuild the initrd image without recompiling the
whole kernel, if live binding isn't appealing then I would investigate that.

    Hi,
    I tried running debian wheezy amd64 with the debian stock kernel 3.2 and
    xen 4.2 rc3. Compiling ran through without any errors and xen boots up
    without problems.

    But xen-pciback always produces the same error message:

    # lsmod | grep pci
    pci_stub               12429  0
    # modprobe xen-pciback
    ERROR: could not insert 'xen_pciback': Unknown symbol in module, or
    unknown parameter (see dmesg)
    # dmesg | tail -n 1
    [ 3687.470124] xen_pciback: Unknown parameter `1)'


    This message always appears when I try to load xen-pciback, whenever I
    give a "hide=(0000:01.00.0)" parameter or not, or in general
    whatever I do.

    Since I couldn't find any help on this topic so far, I hope for some
    idea for a solution here!


    Best Regards,
    Tilo
