   Hi,

   Sorry, the box has two E5620 CPUs. I've checked in the ark and they
support vt-d, but the xen kernel complains about the iommu (that is,
vt-d support). Apparently iommu is there (acpidump -t | grep DMAR shows
something). I tried booting forcing iommu [1] but no joy.

   On the other hand I'm still not sure whether the hotplug patches
still need to be applied or not, I've checked them and I'd say that both
the kernel and xen-tools need to be patched, am I right?

   G

[1] /boot/loader.conf -> xen_cmdline="dom0_mem=4096M dom0_max_vcpus=4
dom0pvh=1 com1=115200,8n1 iommu=force,no-intremap guest_loglvl=all
loglvl=all"
