(Resubmitting my original post with 'xm dmesg' output)
I am working on S5000VSA Intel Server Board with the following cpu spec.
XEN-PEER-RHEL5 $ cat /proc/cpuinfo

power management:
Is my box vt-d capable? If the answer is yes proceed ahead to the details. If
the answer is no, how can a novice user like me identify whether or not his box
is vt-d capable.
I am attaching below snapshots of dump that I think are relevant. You could see
the following:
a) XEN specific dom0 kernel config.
b) menu.lst entry
c) Guest VM (which is a Sles10 HVM) config file.
d) dmesg | grep pciback which says that hidden device indeed exists.
e) output of 'xm dmesg'
When I start the HVM I get the following error:
XEN-PEER-RHEL5 $ xm create sles10disk.cfg
Using config file "./sles10disk.cfg".
Error: Fail to assign device(4:0.0): maybe VT-d is not enabled, or the device is
not exist, or it has already been assigned to other domain
The following thing surprises me:
a) If my device - (4:0.0) is indeed hidden in Dom0 but *not assigned*
to the
HVM, realtek card shows up at (4:0.0) in HVM's lspci as below. Note that my dom0
kernel config has CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND_PASS=y which I believe is
*non-default*.
