The Xen code for making HVM VT-d PCI passthrough attach and detach wasn't working properly: 1) In xenDaemonAttachDevice(), we were always trying to reconfigure a PCI passthrough device, even the first time we added it. This was because the code in virDomainXMLDevID() was not checking xenstore for the existence of the device, and always returning 0 (meaning that the device already existed). 2) In xenDaemonDetachDevice(), we were trying to use "device_destroy" to detach a PCI device. While you would think that is the right method to call, it's actually wrong for PCI devices. In particular, in upstream Xen (and soon in RHEL-5 Xen), device_configure is actually used to destroy a PCI device. To fix the attach problem I add a lookup into xenstore to see if the device we are trying to attach already exists. To fix the detach problem I change it so that for PCI detach (only), we use device_configure with the appropriate sxpr to do the detachment. * src/xen/xend_internal.c: don't use device_destroy for PCI devices and fix the other issues. * src/xen/xs_internal.c src/xen/xs_internal.h: add xenStoreDomainGetPCIID()
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
