Hi, All
Is there a limit for number of PCI pass-through devices in KVM? For
Legacy PCI device assignement or VFIO pass-through method?
Many thanks.
Thx, Xuekun

There's no enforced limit, but the usable limit is related to the number
of KVM memory slots available. Each PCI BAR uses a memory slot
(sometimes two). If memory slots are exhausted, the the VM aborts.
Thanks,
Alex
