By eye it all looks quite reasonable to me.

The current configs are passing through the PCI switch in various
combinations with the devices which is most likely not what you want,
normally you should only pass the devices themselves I think (TBH I'm
not sure what happens if you pass a bridge too...).

Have you tried just passing through 05:00.0 (one of the NICs) or just
05:00.0 and .1?

What does "xm pci-list-assignable-devices" report?

What is the actual failure more? Simply not seeing the device in lspci
within the guest or seeing it but it doesn't work or ...?

Please can you post the guest dmesg with just a NIC passed through.

You might also find some information in the logs under /var/log/xen,
especially the device model log.

Ian.
