Thanks Anna, this was also quite interesting for me.
Did you mean that I just have to eliminate the else branch or raise arround
"All devices
behind the uppermost PCI/PCI-X bridge must be co-assigned to the same guest."
or do I have
to eliminate more in order to prevent an FLR (whatever that is).
For my board it's definitely necessary to move PCI devices in different guests,
as all PCI
slots are assigned to one bridge. It works on 3.2-1. As I don't know what FLR
is, I cannot
estimate, whether others are happy about these changes, I am definitely not. It
prevents me
to use 3.3 upwards with its cpufreq handling.
Best Regards,
Carsten.

Yes, I have seen this as well, and I think it has to do with how the system
supports Function Level Reset (FLR), see
http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2008-07/msg00626.html. Your
cards probably are behind the same PCI bridge. If you don't care about the FLR
functionality, then you could remove the checks for this in
tools/python/xen/xend/server/pciif.py - you just need to recompile the Xen
tools in Dom0, but no kernel changes. This is a hack though rather than a good
solution :( I am not sure if there are any other drawbacks for doing this.
