Can't pass through PCI Device on TR1950X Asus X399-A

[Marshalleq]

I have been conversing in this other thread (below) but felt guilty about stealing it, especially since it is marked solved, so starting a new one.

 

Stubs and such like don't seem to be working.

The config I'm using is as below.  

 

kernel /bzimage
append xen-pciback.hide=(0b:00.0)(0b:00;1),vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 isolcpus=12-15,28-31 initrd=/bzroot

 

 

 

I have tried unsafe interrupts added to the append command also, which didn't change anything either.  Any ideas?

Same hint as in the other thread. Be carful with the options you set in the syslinux config. They have to be separated by a space and not a comma.

OK, I'll give it a go.  One of the guides (I think the space invader one) specifically stated to use commas, then some follow up responses stated they saw no difference with or without a comma.  Will give it a go when I put my NIC card back in shortly.

I replaced the card.  So assuming the card reseating didn't achieve it (and I have no reason to assume it did), this seems to have worked.  Thanks for your help.  I might do some testing with commas again later just to be absolutely certain.

Thank you for this tip!

Mine looks like this now:

append vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction iommu=pt vfio-pci.ids=8086:105e initrd=/bzroot
