Hi Thomas, Yes, I agree with it. I will add some codes to remove the option. Please let me have a few days, I need to prepare BSD machine for compile test. > You should manage to graceful degrades hotplug in not supported > cases supported: devices cannot be detachable in case of VFIO or nic_uio. > What about uio_pci_generic? We cannot detach a vfio device so far. But we can detach a igb_uio and uio_pci_generic device. About a vfio ddevice, I haven't checked related code yet, but I guess I will submit code to detach a vfio device in post-rc1. Thanks, Tetsuya
