Re: [Qemu-devel] [Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC V1 00/11] Xen PCI Passthrough

We also have pci passthrough in qemu-kvm (I think based on the same Neocleus code). Rather than having two pci assignment implementations, I think we should have just one, with the differences (programming the hypervisor) abstracted at
that level.


I agree in principle but how close is qemu-kvm pci passthrough to a mergable state? Would it make sense to merge the Xen code first and then abstract it?

Merging either implementation and abstracting it would risk regressions in the other.

How about merging both, with the ABIs (command line and qmp) tagged as experimental, and then doing a merge in the same style as i386+x86_64->x86 or the two kvm implementations in qemu? We can pick one implementation as the merge target and port fixes from the other.
