List-Id: qemu-devel.nongnu.org List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: Isaku Yamahata , qemu-devel@nongnu.org Cc: "Subbiah Kandasamy (skandasa)" Isaku, To make things clear, let me rephrase the problem. With q35/vPCIe, in VMM monitor, we can do hotplug like: pci_add auto| nic|storage to hotplug a device to PCIe/PCI bus. But we have two problems here: (1) command line for example, "-net nic,addr=" always failed because it cannot find the bus. (2) If "pci_add auto" in monitor or no "addr=dev; devfn = d->devfn; + conf = d->config; br->sec_bus = secondary; br->sub_bus = subordinate; + //TODO wexu2 workaround of "-net nic,addr=" + pci_set_byte(conf + PCI_SECONDARY_BUS, secondary); + pci_set_byte(conf + PCI_SUBORDINATE_BUS, subordinate); + bus = d->bus; primary_bus = 0; if ((d = pci_bridge_get_device(bus)) != NULL){ The fix is a little bit hacky -- welcome any advice. For 2nd issue, current code assume PCI bus is flat and not straight forward to change the behavior. Wei Xu On 10/27/10 10:16 PM, "Isaku Yamahata" wrote: > Oh, now I'm seeing your point.
