[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] Re: [Xen-devel] Can't unbind PCI sound card
I am definitely trying to unbind the PCI sound
card. The "example" I included was one that I pulled off the web. I
just re-read my initial note, and realized i just edited the web example.
My exact command is this:
echo
-n 0000:00:0b.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ENS1371/unbind
... and this command just hangs.
As I mentioned in my original post, I can find a
way to use the sound card by editing /etc/modprobe.conf.local
with: options pciback hide=(0000:00:0b.0) However, my goal is to get the documented example
to work. If a new user of Xen tries to follow the documentation or the web
examples, they will be given the steps listed in my original post, which
are:
# # Unbind a PCI network card from its
network driver
# echo -n <pci-slot-nbr> >
/sys/bus/pci/drivers/<device>/unbind
# # And now bind it to the PCI Backend
# echo -n <pci-slot-nbr> >
/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/new_slot
# echo -n <pci-slot-nbr> >
/sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/bind I haven't found any indication in any of the web
examples, or in the documentation, following this sequence of commands, which
indicates what to do if the unbind hangs. So, I'm trying to figure out why
it is hanging, and if there is a workaround that can be included in the training
materials.
