This seems confusing to me, pci-assign already has options like prefer_msi, share_intx, and configfd that vfio doesn't. I'm sure vfio will eventually get options that pci-assign won't have. How is a user supposed to figure out what options are actually available from -device pci-assign,? Isn't this the same as asking to drop all model specific devices and just use -device net,model=e1000... hey, we've been there before ;) Thanks, Alex -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
