[Xen-devel] xend-pci-permissive.sxp needed for my tg3 (Broadcom) LAN-device

[Marc Schiffbauer <marc.schiffbauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

(please CC me as I am not on the list)

I am using RedHat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL5).
I want to make one of the two broadcom LAN devices available to a domU.

The PCI device is mentioned in the xend-pci-quirks.sxp file but I need 
to put it into xend-pci-permissive.sxp to make it work properly.

Dom0 Kernel: 
2.6.18-53.1.4.el5xen #1 SMP Wed Nov 14 10:52:01 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 
x86_64 GNU/Linux
Xen: 3.0.3-41.el5 (RHEL5 Packages)

Details:

Error in DomU without entry in xend-pci-permissive.sxp (modprobe tg3):
tg3.c:v3.80-rh (August 2, 2007)
PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)
tg3: (0000:00:00.0) phy probe failed, err -19
tg3: Problem fetching invariants of chip, aborting.

after putting ('14e4:1678') into xend-pci-permissive.sxp I can use the 
device in domU.

See attached lspci.txt for PCI details gathered from within dom0

Do you need further information?
I know that there is a newer Version of Xen out already, but I cannot 
test other Xen Versions as this is a customers machine.

Is this fixed already in newer Xen Versions? Or do I have to add 
something to xend-pci-quirks.sxp to make it work without the 
xend-pci-permissive.sxp modification?

Kind regards
