RE: Exporting PCI devices to unpriviledged domains.

["Dave Thompson \(davetho\)" <davetho%cisco.com@localhost>]

See section 7.3 of the Xen User's Manual explains how to give an
unprivilidged domain access to a pci device.  Also you need to use the
physdev_dom0_hide argument on the xen.gz kernel line in the grub menu to
prevent dom0 from seeing the device.

Hi,
do you have any documentation on how to export physical devices to other
domains than dom0 ? I didn't find this in the xen manuals ...
