If it should be in an internal structure, probably the libxl create
context.
But I'm not convinced yet. In particular, if enabling VPCI is
necessary on ARM for hotplugged PCI devices[1], then there has to be
a way for the admin to say "while this domain may not have any PCI
devices right now, I may wish to hotplug some". That's what the
"passthrough=" option is for.
See my other mail.
[1] I think this is all true even if PCI hotplug for ARM is not
currently implemented.
Ian.
