Seeing the recomendation to migrate from xm to xl, I thought i'd give
it a go, I'm not concerned here with the functioning of the PCI
devices within the domU (which is giving me other problems) but just
with assigning the PCI devices to the domU.
My config file includes multiple PCI devices for passthrough, the
relevant section being
pci = [ '09:00.0', '09:01.0', '09:03.0', '02:00.0', '02:00.1',
'02:00.2', '02:00.3', '02:00.4', '02:00.5', '02:00.6', '02:00.7' ]
Fedora 16 provides xen-pciback as a module, so I unbind/bind the PCI
devices (09:*.0) and USB root devices (02:00.*) from their relevant
busses with a bash script
SLOTS=(0000:02:00.0 0000:02:00.2 0000:02:00.4 0000:02:00.6)
for i in ${SLOTS[@]}; do
echo -n $i > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ohci_hcd/unbind
done
SLOTS=(0000:02:00.1 0000:02:00.3 0000:02:00.5 0000:02:00.7)
for i in ${SLOTS[@]}; do
echo -n $i > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd/unbind
done
SLOTS=(0000:02:00.0 0000:02:00.1 0000:02:00.2 0000:02:00.3
0000:02:00.4 0000:02:00.5 0000:02:00.6 0000:02:00.7 0000:09:00.
0 0000:09:01.0 0000:09:03.0)
for i in ${SLOTS[@]}; do
echo -n $i > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/new_slot
echo -n $i > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/bind
done
Both "xm pci-list-assignable-devices" and "xl
pci-list-assignable-devices" show all eleven devices as available,
though the numerical ordering is different for them.
0000:09:00.0
0000:09:01.0
0000:09:03.0
0000:02:00.0
0000:02:00.1
0000:02:00.2
0000:02:00.3
0000:02:00.4
0000:02:00.5
0000:02:00.6
0000:02:00.7
Using "xm create" the domU is assigned all PCI devices, and "lspci"
within the domain sees them, after shutting down the domU, "xm list"
shows it gone cleanly
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 512 4 r----- 73.1
But using "xl create" I receive
Parsing config file mythbe16.cfg
libxl: error: libxl_pci.c:754:libxl_device_pci_reset The kernel

Running "lspci" in the domU shows only a single PCI device (09:00.00),
after shutting down the domain "xl list" shows it as some sort of
zombie domain
Name ID Mem VCPUs State Time(s)
Domain-0 0 512 4 r----- 72.8
(null) 2 0 1 --ps-d 7.0
Are there any new rules for PCI devices using xl?
Should I avoid mixing and matching xm and xl commands on the dom0?
