On x86 virtio has always used PCI, but on s390 it uses either s390 or ccw bus, and on arm7/aarch64 it uses mmio. I'm not sure that the mmio bus supports hotplug, which could be why you see the error in question. Very latest upstream QEMU does now support PCI with aarch64 so in the near future it should have parity of functionality with x86 Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :| -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
