Hi,
I'm using Xen on an Intel Atom board with 8 USB ports (4 on the
back and 4 as slots). An usb-stick acts as the
harddrive and is therefore needed in dom0. Now I'd like to connect
a DVB Stick to a domU.
Does the board support VT-d?
no I guess not. The Board has the Intel i945GC Chipset.
- Is it possible to only forward certain USB ports rather than the
whole Controller (via pciback.hide)?
- Why does lspci only show 4 controllers? Does every controller
control 2 ports? And what is 00:1d.7?
00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB
UHCI Controller #1 (rev 01)
00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB
UHCI Controller #2 (rev 01)
00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB
UHCI Controller #3 (rev 01)
00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB
UHCI Controller #4 (rev 01)
00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) USB2
EHCI Controller (rev 01)
Check the output of lspci -tv and lspci -xxx -vvv
lspci -tv only shows the controllers listed above.
- When I hide 00:1d.1, 00:1d.2, 00:1d.3 via pciback.hide=(00:1d.1)
(00:1d.2)(00:1d.3) noirqdebug from the dom0 and
make them available in the domU's config I can see 2(?) controllers
in the domU but no DVB-Stick.
Udev is installed, syslog does nothing
lspci
0000:00:00.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family)

Any comment is appreciated!
I have has some luck passing onboard USB controllers, but others have
reported problems.
They say that they can get a PCI-e usb controller and pass that
through.
Unfortunately there is only one PCI slot on the board -> WLAN card
Try the command xm pci-list-assignable-devices
does not exist!?
Also what version of Xen?
XEN version 3.2.1-rc1-pre
There are certain conditions that lead you to be able to use specific
PCI devices etc.
here is the link that explains it on xen-devel
http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg?rev/e61978c24d84
Also see this thread regarding a work around patch to pass through
devices on the same PCI bridge:
