Subject: [PATCH] docs: Document how libvirt handles companion controllers
|
|
|
7a3408 |
|
|
|
7a3408 |
The information on companion controllers we give in our documentation is
|
|
|
7a3408 |
rather sparse. For example, it looks like any controller can be used as
|
|
|
7a3408 |
a companion one. Also, when using ich9-uhci2, for example, we are able
|
|
|
7a3408 |
to set some sensible defaults, but it might get confusing for the user
|
|
|
7a3408 |
as we don't do that for all controller models.

relationship of the companion to its master controller.
|
|
|
7a3408 |
A companion controller is on the same bus as its master, so
|
|
|
7a3408 |
the companion index value should be equal.
|
|
|
7a3408 |
+ Not all controller models can be used as companion controllers
|
|
|
7a3408 |
+ and libvirt might provide some sensible defaults (settings
|
|
|
7a3408 |
+ of master startport and function of an
|
|
|
7a3408 |
+ address) for some particular models.
|
|
|
7a3408 |
+ Preferred companion controllers are ich-uhci[123] .
