Are you compiling Xen from the xen-unstable mercurial tree or from a
release tarball? Based on the fact that you're using a 2.6.12 kernel, I
don't think the version of Xen/XenLinux that you're using has the PCI
passthrough code in it (it was added relatively recently to
xen-unstable, I think when 2.6.16-rc2 was the current version of
XenLinux). It's not in any of the Xen 3.0.x releases so far. If you're
compiling from xen-unstable, you need a changeset >= 8867.
If I'm wrong about the version of Xen/XenLinux that you're using, you
need to make sure that the pciback (CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND) module is
compiled into the dom0 kernel and the pcifront
(CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_FRONTEND) module is compiled into the domU kernel.
They'll also happily live together in the same kernel if you use the
same kernel for your dom0 and your domU.
