1094 | Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error | ||
1095 | |||
1096 | Assigns a host PCI device to the VM. | ||

1108 | |||
1109 | The PCI device is specified by the triple segnr, busnr, and devfn. | ||
1110 | Identification in succeeding service requests is done via assigned_dev_id. The | ||
1111 | following flags are specified: | ||
1112 | |||
1113 | /* Depends on KVM_CAP_IOMMU */ | ||
1114 | #define KVM_DEV_ASSIGN_ENABLE_IOMMU (1 << 0) | ||

1121 | Parameters: struct kvm_assigned_pci_dev (in) | ||
1122 | Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error | ||
1123 | |||
1124 | Ends PCI device assignment, releasing all associated resources. | ||
1125 | |||
1126 | See KVM_CAP_DEVICE_ASSIGNMENT for the data structure. Only assigned_dev_id is | ||
1127 | used in kvm_assigned_pci_dev to identify the device. | ||
1128 | |||

1135 | Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error | ||
1136 | |||
1137 | Assigns an IRQ to a passed-through device. | ||
1138 | |||
1139 | struct kvm_assigned_irq { | ||

1150 | __u32 reserved[12]; | ||
1151 | }; | ||
1152 | }; | ||
1153 | |||
1154 | The following flags are defined: | ||
1155 | |||
1156 | #define KVM_DEV_IRQ_HOST_INTX (1 << 0) | ||
1157 | #define KVM_DEV_IRQ_HOST_MSI (1 << 1) | ||
1158 | #define KVM_DEV_IRQ_HOST_MSIX (1 << 2) | ||

1161 | #define KVM_DEV_IRQ_GUEST_MSI (1 << 9) | ||
1162 | #define KVM_DEV_IRQ_GUEST_MSIX (1 << 10) | ||
1163 | |||
1164 | It is not valid to specify multiple types per host or guest IRQ. However, the | ||
1165 | IRQ type of host and guest can differ or can even be null. | ||
1166 | |||

1172 | Parameters: struct kvm_assigned_irq (in) | ||
1173 | Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error | ||
1174 | |||
1175 | Ends an IRQ assignment to a passed-through device. | ||
1176 | |||
1177 | See KVM_ASSIGN_DEV_IRQ for the data structure. The target device is specified | ||
1178 | by assigned_dev_id, flags must correspond to the IRQ type specified on | ||
1179 | KVM_ASSIGN_DEV_IRQ. Partial deassignment of host or guest IRQ is allowed. | ||
