Thanks Ian, could you please clarify me how are interrupts handled for pci
passthrough device. I thought it is delivered via evtchn from pciback to
pcifront i.e
InterruptDescTable->Hypervisor->pciback->pcifront->actual_device is this
correct?

IRQ is 11 in dom0 for nic device but after driver for nic is loaded in domU
IRQ is changed to 17. When you say try with another device should I try with
another nic device or someother device?

Thanks
