Dear XEN Developers,
Sorry for my English. I would like to use my PCI TV tuners under Win XP
virtual images (the specified tuner software works under windows only)
on Ubuntu 8.04.3 with XEN 3.2.1-rc1. I got an error message, when I
start the image.. In this message found your e-mail address. Maybe you
will be found something useful for this e-mail.
I used Ubuntu original XEN packages. Maybe my motherboard not good for
PCI passthrough (ASUS P5QL Pro /Intel P43 + ICH10/) or my CPU (Intel
Core2 Quad Q9650 3GHz) not allowed this virtual functions.
Here are configuration parameters and some result messages:
/boot/grub/menu.lst
title Xen 3.2 / Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS, kernel 2.6.24-24-xen
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/xen-3.2.gz vtd=1 pci=nommconf dom0_mem=524288

module /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-24-xen quiet
I would like the following PCI devices to use under winxp (from lspci):

My first test XEN image: winxp1.cfg (I would like to dedicate "05:00.0"
PCI device for this image):
kernel = '/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader'
device_model = '/usr/lib/xen/bin/qemu-dm'
builder = 'hvm'
memory = '786'
cpus = '2'
vcpus = '1'
name = 'winxp1'
disk = ['tap:aio:/xen/winxp1.img,hda,w','phy:/dev/scd0,hdc:cdrom,r']
dhcp = 'off'
vif = ['type=ioemu,ip=192.168.0.21,mac=00:16:3E:1A:2B:21,bridge=xenbr0,vifname=vif1.0']
netmask = '255.255.255.0'
gateway = '192.168.0.1'
hostname = 'winxp.localtest'
pci = ['05:00.0']
boot='c'
vnc=1
vncviewer=1
vncdisplay=0
sdl=0
Without "pci" directives the winxp image works well, but when I enabled
the "pci = ['05:00.0']" row, I got an error message on create:
~# xm create winxp1.cfg
Using config file "/etc/xen/winxp1.cfg".
VNC= 1
Unexpected error: <type 'exceptions.OSError'>
