Hi,
Posted to xen-users in case I'm wrong.. but.. it looks like a problem
with detection of irq's is still around in 3.0.3? A pci nic passed
through is getting allocated the same physical irq as used by the sata
controller in dom0.
I have 2 identical NIC's to pass through, one to each of a pair of
domU's. I've reserved the devices using pciback.
But, whilst one domU correctly takes an unused physical-irq, the other
is getting one already used by libata - I've checked the files (included
further down for sanity check) to make sure that I'm passing the devices
into each domU, so it appears the error is in Xen 3.0.3 checking irq
allocation? I could be wrong - I'm not hugely experienced with Xen.
I'm currently running fc6 development tree with these packages:
xen-libs-3.0.3-0.1.rc3
xen-3.0.3-0.1.rc3
kernel-xen-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
I had this problem with 3.0.2 also, and the noirqdebug hack wasn't
getting around it for me (nor were acpi=off, noapic etc.)
Below are contents of various files to illustrate the problem:

And lastly, the files in /etc/xen to load the domU's where the pci cards
are passed in:
