I'm wondering how does it relate to other drivers/hypervisors. Is there any other that requires some option to be enabled to enable PCI hot plugging?

Otherwise modeling it as a Xen feature would make sense. -- Best Regards, Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Invisible Things Lab A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
