The MMIO address was too large for a MFN of a 32-bit system (it was 380003200000-3800036fffff). Instead of rejecting the operation Xen tried to perform it resulting in a (quite understandable) failure in the domU. I think either the hypervisor or the tools should refuse to do PCI-passthrough in this case. Juergen
