Hmmm the fun part seems to be .. that the usb devices on that usb2 controller seemed to work fine on Xen.
And i have some problems about xen not willing to passthrough things with the usb3 controllers (supposedly due to the (extra) bridges),
that are the controllers on 04:00.0 and 08:00.0

I had hoped things would become easier/better with my new mobo including iommu :-)
Doesn't seem that way yet. Previously i had 2 usb2.0 controllers(1x pci 1x pci-e) and 1 usb3.0(pci-e) passed through (with xen-swiotlb and no hardware iommu).. and that worked fine grabbing video 24/7 for several weeks.


But lets hope for the best :-)
