Hi,

I am using the xen-3,4, and i am doing pass-through for a device with
MSI enabled (the device of-course supports MSI) to a domU with Windows
XP. When i disable and then re-enable the device using Windows device
manager, everything looks like it's working fine, but the device seems
to malfunction.
After digging a little bit, i saw that the problem is, because the bit
of the interrupt-status (bit 3) in the status register (offset 0x6 in
the PCI config space) was turned on somehow -  this proibably caused
the MSI to malfunction (because the IntX assertion was enabled - thus
disabling the MSI) - and this lead to the problem i experienced.

Any ideas on how to solve this issue?

Tom
