Neo, You're right. I tried that only as you asked if that would work or not. :-) I tested the SecondaryBusReset manually as what the function defines: After I "Assert Secondary Bus Reset", I notice all the config space of the NIC (01:00.0) becomes inaccessible (reading returns 0xffffffff). Next, after I "De-assert Secondary Bus Reset", the config space of NIC becomes accessible again. what's your failure case? -- Dexuan -----Original Message----- From: Neo Jia [mailto:neojia@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: 2008年9月3日 15:02 To: Cui, Dexuan Cc: xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [Xen-devel] Can we disable secondary_bus_reset in runtime? Dexuan, I don't think this experiment can verify that if the SecondaryBusReset works or not, as it (the device driver of this NIC) can work on the VM reboot case without reset the HW.
