Hi All :

I have been playing with Qemu trying to disable hot-unplug capability for conventional PCI. I have discussed this briefly on IRC and the plan is to have an option on the pci-pci bridge that would disable SHPC and ACPI hotplug capability for all the slots on that bus. I am _not_ trying to implement a per slot capability for conventional PCI as was previously posted for PCIE slots in this patch : https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-03/msg01833.html (we do not need this atm).

I am following the conversations which happened few weeks back here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-02/msg00985.html

To that end, I have been experimenting with Qemu using the patch I attach below. I have attached the virtio balloon driver with bus 1 which is attached to the pci bridge. Following is the libvirt 4.5 xml snippet which I am using:

   <controller type='pci' index='0' model='pci-root'>
      <alias name='pci.0'/>
   </controller>
  <controller type='pci' index='1' model='pci-bridge'>
      <model name='pci-bridge'/>
      <target chassisNr='1'/>
      <alias name='pci.1'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>
   </controller>
  <memballoon model='virtio'>
      <stats period='30'/>
      <alias name='balloon0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x01' function='0x0'/>
   </memballoon>


I am using a windows guest and from the guest I can see that the balloon driver is indeed attached to the pci bridge (see attached screenshot).
I still find Windows giving me an option to hot eject the pci balloon driver.

So what am I doing wrong here?

The Qemu patch I am experimenting with (which is currently a hack) is attached below. It is based off Qemu 2.12 and not the latest mainline.
