Hi all,

I have a PCI-X card which I would like to assign to one of my VM guests. Is there any way, using libvirt, of completely bypassing the host system, and routing all PCI-X interaction (drivers, interrupts, general ownership) to one of the VMs?

Yes, you can use device passthrough to completely transfer control of a PCI device out of the host and into one of the guests.
