hi i'm testing an 11.3 Dom0 with, rpm -qa | egrep -i "xen-4|kernel-xen" kernel-xen-2.6.37.1-4.1.x86_64 xen-4.0.2_02-102.1.x86_64 i've a DomU, also 11.3, same kernel version. a sata_sil24 card/driver have been hidden from Dom0, and i'm passing it through to the DomU, as I always have, with, pci = [ '05:06.0' ] extra = 'textmode=1 xencons=xvc0 noirqdebug elevator=noop swiotlb=128,force' at 1st Guest start, PCI appears, drives are seen, array can be started, etc. i.e., all's well. @ any 'problem' in DomU, e.g. a kernel OOPS, I shutdown/restart the guest -- and the PCI card appears in the guest, but NOT the drives. simply not there -- and afaict no error in dmesg. shutting down the guest, restarting xend @ Dom0, and restarting the guest is no help. card's passed through -- just no drives. restarting the Dom0 (system reboot), however, resets something -- and the next launch of Guest, all's back to normal -- the drives are, again, seen & addressable in the Guest. as the card, and attached drives, are hidden from the Dom0, i'd suspect that the DomU "handles" the finding of the card-attached drives, but clearly a restart of the the Guest is not sufficient to re-init that process. so, 1st question -- *where* might I begin to look for this problem? thanks. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-virtual+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-virtual+help@opensuse.org
