You can use tracing: http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Tracing

Yes, NVIDIA uses the same PLX PEX 8747 on the switches on the cards I
have access to.  Unfortunately the endpoints in my case do not support
ATS, so the endpoint cannot generate a pre-translated address that
would take advantage of the DT capability on the switch port if we were
to enable it.  Thanks,
