That's what I was suspecting. I think you should give PCI passthrough
a go first.
PCI passthrough allows a PCI device to be hidden away from Dom0 and
exported to a DomU. You achieve the first by passing
pciback.hide=(XX:XX.X) option to Dom0 kernel and adding pci = [
'XX:XX.X′ ] to DomU config file. You'll also need
CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_FRONTEND=y and CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND=y in your
DomU and Dom0 kernel configs.
Hope this helps
