Hi, I'm trying to pass a CUDA GPU through to a paravirtualized Ubuntu 12.04 DomU guest on XenServer 6.1.
I already got this working when the guest is HVM, but I would like to use PV to test VM-to-VM data transfer bandwidth in PV mode.
I think the problem might be with the kernel I'm using in the PV guest.
I can do `lspci` and I get:
But when I do `sudo nvidia-smi` I get:
Here's what I get when I do `grep XEN /boot/config-3.8.0-34-generic`
Is the problem that my config says `CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_FRONTEND=m` instead of `CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_FRONTEND=y`?
What does "m" mean, module? Do I not have the correct module installed?
