Unable to assign device "hostdev0" seems to suggest that your hardware doesn't have an IOMMU, or it is not configured correctly. What kind of hardware (chipset, in particular), do you have? Also, what is the output from "cat /proc/cmdline" on the host? Finally, can you give us the output from "dmesg"?

Possibly, we would need that information exported by libvirt though. Definitely would be useful, we could at least show a warning 'Hey, your machine probably doesn't support this'. No idea what detecting it would entail Anyway, moving to libvirt, which is closer to the source of the issue.

Secondly, libvirt gives a message what the error is: no IOMMU. Third, the Virtualization Guide states that for Intel-based machines with IOMMU support (a requirement for passthrough/device-assignment), you have to add 'intel_iommu=on' to the kernel cmdline.
