Re: LXC + USB passthrough = Operation not permitted
Dear Fil,
I am not sure if my answer can help you.
I had ever asked a similar question to Daniel and I was using a thirty-party card. As a container uses a shared kernel with the host, so hostdev mode='subsystem' doesn't make sense. Maybe you can try to use hostdev mode='capabilities'. Please see http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsHostDevCaps
Hope this helps

LXC guest to have/make a device node (FUSE)
hi guys
With lxc container under libvirt control - how can guest create device
nodes?
I'm specifically looking for FUSE device. Is it possible somehow to get
it to the guest(passthrough?) or allow the guest to create dev node?
many thanks, L.

Re: LXC + USB passthrough = Operation not permitted
Can you see the USB device in the lxc?
My answering assumes you cannot see the USB device in the container. If you can see it, please ignore my answer.
According to my understanding, “hostdev mode='subsystem' “ is used with KVM only. We use this if we want to passthrough a device to a KVM virtual machine. After doing that, the host machine will lose control of the device. If container is

How automatically set group.devices.allow for libvirt-lxc container after start ?
Hi.
I need to use /dev/ppp inside the lxc container, for very ancient software.
Problem solved this way:
1) virsh edit container name and add section:
<features>
<capabilities policy='default'>
<mknod state='on'/>
</capabilities>
</features>
2) start container
3) attach or ssh container, be root:

Re: If it's possible for a third-party PCIe card to be shared by multiple containers
Dear Daniel,
The thirty-party PCIe card is based on the Xilinx’ FPGA which is off the shelf, the main features are as follows:
1) x8 Gen3, 8Gb/s per lane/direction
2) MSI and legacy interrupt support
3) Scatter-gather packet DMA engine provide by Northwest Logic
We hope multiple Linux Containers to access the PCIe card in time division mode, for example, during slot 1, lxc1 read/write the PCIe

Re: If it's possible for a third-party PCIe card to be shared by multiple containers
Dear Daniel,
I found that lxc driver doesn't support hostdev with type of 'pci'.
As you mentioned before, I tried to expose the device node (the PCIe card) to the container, my XML is as follow:
<devices>
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'>
<source>
<address bus='0x01' slot='0x00'

Re: LXC + USB passthrough = Operation not permitted
I'd also like to point out that, when setting up a linux container with
_just_ the lxc tools available in ubuntu, all that was needed to be done
was whitelist the appropriate cgroups for the Android devices. The lxc
tools seem to create the appropriate character devices when you
detach/attach the Android device via USB, and the Android `adb` tool
recognized the devices.
So, a tangential

Getting "unknown device type" when attaching NPIV (vHBA) to vm
Hi,
I'm trying to attach a host FC HBA to VM (NPIV).
Running ovirt 3.5 on CentOS 6.7, libvirt-0.10.2-46.el6_6.6.x86_64, I created vHBA using nodedev-create command - see below HBA and vHBA.
I wrote a vdsm hook which appends the vHBA xml stanza to the devices xml element but the vm start starts without the vHBA device.
Also, when trying to attach the device manually as a live device - I get:

Re: Getting "unknown device type" when attaching NPIV (vHBA) to vm
Thank you for your reply,
I'm still getting hard time to attach the hostdev, I couldn't make it work out of the doc.
I took the address details from:

Could you please help with questions about the net failover feature
Hi laine,
I have leave some questions on IRC, but my VPN broken time after time.
Please ignore the questions on IRC.
In my understanding, the standby and primary hostdev interface may be in
different subnet.
I'm not sure whether it is correct. Could you please help to explain? Thank
you in advance.
For example, primary hostdev is connected to vf-pool with <pf='eth0'/>,

Re: LXC + USB passthrough = Operation not permitted
So, if I remove the hostdev element related to the USB device, running
`lsusb` and `usb-devices` inside the container lists the proper device, but
I do not see the appropriate character device bus for the Android device
under /dev/bus/usb. We are not entirely sure that `lsusb` and `usb-devices`
queries the appropriate location - it somehow gets information from the
host, not the guest container,

Re: Could you please help with questions about the net failover feature
Hi Laine,
For the feature testing before, I only test the linux bridge setting as in

Now I tried 1), to use macvtap bridge mode connected to the PF, it can not
work as the hostdev interface can not get dhcp ip address on the guest.
Check on host, the /var/log/messages and dmesg both says:
