Why?Let me guess: Because pci bus numbers are guest-changeable and thus not stable?
How about using user-specified ids to specify busses then? PCI example: instead of -device $name,addr=$bus:$slot.$fn use -device $name,bus=root,addr=$slot.$fn SCSI example: host adapter: -device lsi,id=foo scsi disk: -device scsi-disk,bus=foo,addr=$lun cheers, Gerd
