Hi Jan,

There is a fixed array in linux-2.6/include/linux/kvm_host.h,
we can only register 300 devices.

struct kvm_io_range {
        gpa_t addr;               
        int len;
        struct kvm_io_device *dev;
};

struct kvm_io_bus {
        int                   dev_count;
#define NR_IOBUS_DEVS 300
        struct kvm_io_range range[NR_IOBUS_DEVS];
};
                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Amos.
