Hi i also follow this topic but for me the proposed libvirt doesn't seem
to solve the problem. When starting the virtual machine i still get a
permission denied error.

If i bind the device from command line and run qemu from command line all works 
fine.
I converted the working command line to virsh and the difference that i see is 
vfio-pci are command line arguments in the xml :

<qemu:commandline>
    <qemu:arg value='-rtc'/>
    <qemu:arg value='base=localtime'/>
    <qemu:arg value='-device'/>
    <qemu:arg 
value='ioh3420,bus=pcie.0,addr=1c.0,multifunction=on,port=1,chassis=1,id=roo 
try t'/>
    <qemu:arg value='-device'/>
    <qemu:arg 
value='vfio-pci,host=04:00.0,bus=root,addr=00.0,multifunction=on,x-vga=on'/>
    <qemu:arg value='-device'/>
    <qemu:arg value='vfio-pci,host=04:00.1,bus=root,addr=00.1'/>
    <qemu:arg value='-device'/>
    <qemu:arg 
value='ide-cd,bus=ide.1,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-1-0,id=ide0-1-0,bootindex=1'/>
  </qemu:commandline>

When i start the vm in virt manager i get this message :

internal error: early end of file from monitor: possible problem:

Any idea ?
