Hm it seems like Xen doesn't find the position of the MSI-X table correctly, given there's only one error path from msi.c returning -ENODATA (61). Are there errors from pciback when this happens? I would expect the call to pci_prepare_msix() from pciback to fail and thus also report some error? I think it's likely I will have to provide an additional debug patch to Xen, maybe Jan has an idea of what could be going on. Roger.
