Re: [Xen-users] GPL PV drivers

Hi james.

Perhaps you can help me.

So I have pic pass through working for an Nvidia card which is my 2nd graphics adapter.

I wish to dedicate it to a particular domU.

Besides adding the below line in my domU config file;

pci = ['07:00.0']

What else do I need to do before compiling Nvidia drivers (I found a few write ups that tell you how to do this) in that domU?

Incidentally, do you know how to make the above pci line work in the new domU config syntax?

Hi,
Is James Harper / GPL PV drivers
borrowed some GPL code from the Linux kernel related to enumering PCI devices

Can someone please clarify this. Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure what the question is. I used the Linux PV stuff as inspiration for the GPLPV drivers and there is some direct cut & paste in there but Windows is sufficiently different to Linux that most of the work had to be done from scratch.

Or maybe you asking about PCI passthrough?
