xen discuss - Aug 2007 - passing pci devices (pciback)

Is it possible to run an OpenSolaris dom0 and pass pci devices to a linux domU? 
The only other thread I can find about this is one I answered back in February.

I currently have a Linux dom0, that is passing NICs to a Linux domU that works
as my firewall.  I''d like to switch to an OpenSolaris dom0, but
can''t unless I can pass the PCI devices.  Does anyone have a quick
tutorial on what I would need to do besides passing the PCI device ID in the
.py?

No we don''t support that yet.
