Hello,

I have cooked up a patch of ACPI PCI hotplug controller emulation, which can be 
extended to support hotplug of virtual PCI device, say ne2000 NIC.

Are you guys interested to integrate this device emulation?

BTW, modification of ACPI DSDT table is required, but QEMU reuse the binary from 
Bochs. I don't know how to handle such issue in QEMU.

Thanks,
