This section contains some issues and solutions for problems which may affect SR-IOV.
Error starting the guest
Start the configured vm , an error reported as follows:
# virsh start test error: Failed to start domain test error: internal error unable to start guest: char device redirected to /dev/pts/2 get_real_device: /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:03:10.0/config: Permission denied init_assigned_device: Error: Couldn't get real device (03:10.0)!

This error is often caused by a device which is already assigned to another guest or to the host itself.
