Hello,
I am desperately trying to get pci-passthrough to working.
I want to pass a tg3 nic to domU.
when booting domU I get a lot of messages:
pcifront pci-0: pciback not responding!!!
in domU, "ifconfig eth... adress up"
hangs for 2 minutes, finally ifconfig -a shows a
correct setting with no data transmitted rx/tx
The IP Adress is being assigned, but there is no data
transmission possible on this interface (ping ..)
lspci in domU also hangs for 2 minutes, then reports
the device correctly.
When not doing pci passthrough, I can use the interface in dom0
just as usual.
I have also tried the other PCI devices - same result.
vif works, but I am afraid it is too slow for a real server.
Any Ideas ?
Thanks in advance
Winfried
My configuration:
=================
xen-dbg-3.0.2_09668-0.1.gz from SuSE,
suse xen kernel vmlinuz-2.6.16.16-1.4-xen based self compile
I have pciback compiled into the kernel. Later I also compiled
tg3 into the kernel, but it didn't help.
The pciback hide and permissive seem to be correct.
More Error messages:
====================
domU, dmesg shows:
:
pcifront pci-0: pciback not responding!!!
pcifront pci-0: pciback not responding!!!
NET: Registered protocol family 10
lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready
in dom0, xm dmesg shows:

pciback runs with trace, so dom0 dmesg shows:
