Built ok, installed ok (after removing libvirt and friends) dom0 boots ok, xl create has managed to pass all four devices into my domU (with fc16 and xen 4.1.x only one of the devices was passed) lspci sees them. I should probably change my rmmod/unbind scripts to use the new xl pci-assignable-add method I've not checked if the PCI device actually functions yet ... fingers crossed. -- xen mailing list xen@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xen

I have a temporary build of xen-4.2.0 at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4493396 I would like to know a bit more about libvirt support for 4.2 before I do any proper releases as I know a lot of people use xen via libvirt.

Re: [Fedora-xen] [Xen-devel] [ANNOUNCE] Xen 4.2 released!
Congratulations, it's always good to see the development moving forward! There is one thing I wonder though when it comes to PCI passthrough: Can Xen reset hardware through the d3d0 in the ACPI interface and/or through a 'bus reset' or a 'link reset'? Or can it reset hardware that is marked for passthrough only through FLR? For details see e.g. http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/techpaper/vsp_4_vmdirectpath_host.pdf Regards Robin.
