@chicagomed Could you (and others with the issue) please post the output of lspci -mnn for the devices that are not shown in xe pci-list?
XAPI filters for PCI devices with classes 01XX, 02XX, and 03XX as a safety measure (better to be safe than sorry in avoiding passthrough of critical devices), but perhaps we could reasonably expand this filter.
Not sure to understand but for example if you run xe vm-start <uuid> on slave1 but the vm is started on slave2 (because it uses a storage local to slave2) then the resident-on will be slave2. It's because the task Async.VM.start is really created on slave2 even if the initial command has been received by slave1. Does it answer your question?
@olivierlambert as you said the resident-on field of a task is set by the helper which creates the task. So the value should be the name of the host where the task has been created.
