Ah, didn't think of the filesystem. So it's either making the SD card directly

[PATCH v4 0/4] virtio: Clean up scatterlists and use the DMA API
...iolation, and this won't work if the device is a real PCI device. Alternatively, it can treat the device like any other PCI device and use the IOMMU. This is a bit slower, and it is also incompatible with current hypervisors. There really are virtio devices that are pieces of silicon and not figments of a hypervisor's imagination [1]. We could teach virtio_pci to use physical addressing on ppc64, but that seems like a pretty awful hack, and it'll start needing quirks as soon as someone tries to plug a virtio-speaking PCI card into a ppc64 machine. Ideas? x86 and arm seem to be safe h...

Bug#477525: Suggested fix
vifnum appears to be entirely a figment of network-route's imagination; I can see no evidence of it elsewhere in the Debian Xen packages. Since network-route claims to default to eth0 and does not document vifnum at all, the obvious fix would be to change: netdev=${netdev:-eth${vifnum}} to: netdev=${netdev:-eth0} ttfn/rjk

Hi Andy, As you're discovering, there's a reason no one has done the DMA API before. So the problem is that ppc64's IOMMU is a platform thing, not a bus thing. They really do carve out an exception for virtio devices, because performanc...

[PATCH v4 0/4] virtio: Clean up scatterlists and use the DMA API
...ree that such a bus uses a direct mapping and have the guest use appropriate "direct map" dma_ops. But we need to keep backward compatibility with existing guest/hypervisors so the default must remain as it is. > There really are virtio devices that are pieces of silicon and not > figments of a hypervisor's imagination [1]. I am aware of that. There are also attempts at using virtio to make two machines communicate via a PCIe link (either with one as endpoint of the other or via a non-transparent switch). Which is why I'm not objecting to what you are trying to do ;-) My s...
