Re: [Xen-devel] Possible bug with pass-through hot-plug?

[Tom Rotenberg <tom.rotenberg@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just tried it, with xen-unstable changeset: 20249, and it also doesn't work.

When i assigned the device regularly, it was assigned to the virtual
BDF: 00:04.0, and the detachment worked fine, but when i caused it to
be registered on the virtual BDF 00:1b.0 - the detachment didn't
work...

The change i made to the qemu code to make the device to be assigned
on 00:1b.0, is:

diff --git a/hw/pass-through.c b/hw/pass-through.c
index 8d80755..2b79812 100644
--- a/hw/pass-through.c
+++ b/hw/pass-through.c
@@ -974,6 +974,7 @@ int insert_to_pci_devfn(char *bdf_slt)
         return -1;
     }

+    devfn = PCI_DEVFN(0x1b,0);
     return __insert_to_pci_devfn(bus, dev, func, devfn, opt);

 }


Can u please check if it works on your system?
