Xen devel - May 2009 - VT-d could not work on ThinkPad T500 well

Hi all.
Does anybody hear that Xen-3.4.0-rc3 works with VT-d on ThinkPad T500 well ?

ThinkPad T500 hardware space is here:
CPU: Intel(R) Core 2 Duo Processor T9400
chipset: Moble Intel(R) GM45 Express chipset
network card: Intel(R) 82567LM Gigabit network Connection

I tried passthrough with network card (82567LM) which is allocated 00:19.0
But, I could not start the privilege Dom0 with the following messages:
(XEN) I/O virtualisation enabled
(XEN) I/O virtualisation for PV guests disable
(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:722: iommu_page_fault: iommu->reg = ffff828bfff56000

(XEN) [VT-D]iommu.c:722: iommu_page_fault: iommu-reg = ffff828bfff54000
<freeze here>

any advice?
thanks.

Try adding iommu_inclusive_mapping to your Xen command line.

Although being a workaround, would it hurt to make that the default 
behaviour when iommu is enabled?
There seem to be more broken implementations around than actually working...

iommu_inclusive_mapping just works around BIOS issue, it won''t impact
VT-d functionality.

Does your system hang at the iommu fault?  Does iommu_inclusive_mapping really
work around your issue?
