    I created a vfio-pci.cfg but the binding to a Windows 10 VM on Supermicro X11SPM-F with GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER doesn't seem to work. I get the same result as not having a vfio-pci.cfg file when I attempt to start the VM:

     

    VM log:

    I am able to BIND and start the VM if I edit the Syslinux configuration with "{append initrd=/bzroot} vfio-pci.ids=10de:1e81,10de:10f8,10de:1ad8,10de:1ad9" and this noted here:

     

    In safe mode the VM tab reports "Libvirt Service failed to start." Please see second diagnostics.

     

    Rebooting to normal after safe-mode seems to have fixed some things.  The BIND is now working with a stock Syslinux configuration so vfio-pci.cfg appears to be working. (Or are there effects remaining form the previous mods?)

     

    Starting the VM resulted in this line filling the syslog: 

    2019-09-21T23:33:56.395403Z qemu-system-x86_64: vfio_region_write(0000:65:00.0:region1+0xd71e0, 0x0,8) failed: Device or resource busy

    Adding these lines to my go file allows the VM to operate acceptably:

    #fix video for VM
    echo 0 > /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon0/bind
    echo 0 > /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind
    echo efi-framebuffer.0 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/efi-framebuffer/unbind

    Please see latest diagnostics attached.
