rhel6 virt guide appears out of date

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Documentation for PCI Passthrough does not seem consistent with what is currently in the OS
    • http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Virtualization/chap-Virtualization-PCI_passthrough.html
    • Specifically the procedure in 12.2 is missing instructions on passing amd_iommu=on on the command line to enable
    • PCI devices in the examples do not line up later with what is presented in the configuration file.

Environment

  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
  • KVM PCI Passthrough
