[PATCH] Add 'permissive' option for PCI devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Simon Gaiser <simon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

By setting the permissive flag the guest access to the PCI config space
is not filtered. This might be a security risk, but it's required for
some devices and the IOMMU and interrupt remapping should (mostly?)
contain it.
