[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] Re: [Xen-users] PCI passthrough to Windows XP
So I think I am making progress. I decided to try and pass a PCIe network card
(04:00.0) and a PCI sound card (08:02.0) to see if I could get that working. I
added the following line to my /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="xen-pciback.hide=(04:00.0)(08:02.0)(05:00.0)(06:04.0)"
and after a update-grub the relevant portion of my /boot/grub/grub.cfg is
menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 and XEN 4.0-amd64'
--class debian --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os --class xen {
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 2c69309c-05ce-4e2d-b9f9-d651e65342ae
echo 'Loading Linux 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 ...'
multiboot /boot/xen-4.0-amd64.gz placeholder
module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 placeholder
root=UUID=2c69309c-05ce-4e2d-b9f9-d651e65342ae ro xen-pciback.hide=(04:00.0)
(08:02.0)(05:00.0)(06:04.0) quiet
echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
module /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-xen-amd64
}
After a reboot
#xm pci-list-assignable-devices
shows the 4 device ids. If I then add the following to the .cfg file for my
virtual Windows XP machine
pci = ['04:00.0', '08:02.0']
the virtual machine boots and the network card and sound card appear to work
fine. So it seems like I can get PCI passthrough to work. If I add the card I
am interested in
pci = ['04:00.0', '08:02.0', '05:00.0', '06:04.0']
or
pci = ['04:00.0', '08:02.0', '05:00.0']
and try and create the VM, I get
Error: pci: PCI Backend and pci-stub don't own device 0000:05:00.0
If I only have
pci = ['04:00.0', '08:02.0', '06:04.0']
then
xm create windows.cfg doesn't give me an error, but the VM is not created.
Potentially relevant are
#lspci -t

which shows the PCIe card I am having trouble with is a "bridged" device.

which does mean anything to me.
