severanced Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 After installing 6.12 I started getting these errors on boot up in the GUI. It will show a red alert error with: VM Autostart disabled vfio-pci-errors VM Autostart disabled due to vfio--bind error I have two VMs one of which auto starts and I bound a sound card and I believe a core or two to it in Tools --> System devices. I am able to start it once I get the system up and booted but seeing this errors makes me wonder if I should be handling this a different way? Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 You should post your diagnostics Quote Link to comment

If you uncheck one entry and then reapply it will rebuild the vfio file Quote Link to comment

severanced Posted July 29, 2023 Author Share Posted July 29, 2023 To add to this, I was also curious because I'm in the middle of buying new hardware (motherboard, CPU, memory) to upgrade everything and I was worried about this error and being able to upgrade and start things up normally.

Are the correct devices set correctly in tool ->sysdevs? It is recommended to remove vfio mappings when changing hardware as pci numbers may change. Uncheck on dev is sysdevs bind then recheck and bind and it should be fixed. Quote Link to comment

I'm not sure how to check that since none of my hardware has changed. Quote Link to comment
Solution SimonF Posted July 30, 2023 Solution Share Posted July 30, 2023 5 hours ago, severanced said: I'm not sure how to check that since none of my hardware has changed. Just change one of the tick boxes then press bind button and then revert that change and press bind again and it will fix the file. Quote Link to comment
severanced Posted July 30, 2023 Author Share Posted July 30, 2023 Thanks, I unchecked those, rebooted my system, then checked them and rebooted again and it seems to have cleared the red error. Quote Link to comment
