Having issues with starting a VM on Threadripper

Featured Replies

 

Hi all,

I have a new Threadripper 1920X system and everything is setup and working properly except for my Windows 10 gaming VM that I'm trying to set up. I have a GT 1030 in the primary GPU slot and my GTX 1080 FE in the second slot, it is detected by unraid in system devices. I add the sound card from the 1080 and then attempt to start the VM, but I get an execution error that states: 

internal error: qemu unexpectedly closed the monitor: 2019-07-23T04:04:05.663939Z qemu-system-x86_64: -device vfio-pci,host=0a:00.0,id=hostdev0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3: vfio 0000:0a:00.0: failed to setup container for group 16: failed to set iommu for container: Operation not permitted. 

Attached are my diagnostics

Any help in getting this resolved is appreciated.

You need to redo the diagnostics. It's 188 Bytes (which basically says it errors out).

While you are at it, also attach the xml of your VM.

Here is my latest set of diagnostics, but it is only a few hundred kb's as well. Maybe i am doing something wrong when gathering these, but i am going into tools and clicking diagnostics and then clicking download and attaching here.  Also attached is my XML for my Windows 10 VM.

Your diagnostics is now ok but your xml is truncated. Please can you make sure it's the entire xml (it should end with </domain>).

 

Theoretically from the IOMMU grouping, it should work. Looks like you have the Asus X399-A - by "second slot" do you mean the black PCIe slot or the silver one?

Do you have ACS Override turned on?

D'oh I thought i copied the whole xml. Here is the proper one. It is in the 3rd PCIE slot, which on this board is the Silver one. ACS override is disabled.

Firstly, I can't see GT 1030 but can see a GT 710. Just want to double check - did you make any change in the previous config before doing the diagnostics?

 

Things theoretically still look like it should work (or at least things looks very similar to mine) so what you might need to do is

  • vfio stub the GTX1080
  • dump your own vbios (since you have 2 GPUs, do NOT download a random vbios off the interweb and edit - dump your own is the best way)
  • switch to Q35 machine type (but that probably won't help since I used to run i440fx that worked)

If you are not sure what to do, watch SpaceInvader One videos on Youtube.

 

Just in case you still are not sure what to do after watching SIO videos, I can kinda try to help with some more low level instructions but usually you can help yourself faster. If you still need help, one step at a time:

  • "Main" tab -> click "Flash" -> scroll to the "Syslinux Configuration" section and copy-paste that here.
  • "Tools" tab -> System Devices -> copy-paste the "PCI Devices and IOMMU Groups" section here

I got the VM to start!! I enabled unsafe interrupts in the VM manager and made sure the GPU was selected and crossed my fingers and it booted!! Thank you so much @testdasi for the help. Now I just need to fix my sound issue with the audio device from the 1080. Where the sound is all warped and does not sound right. Again thank you for the help.

Sound issue fix below (yes that's the same SpaceInvaderOne on Youtube).
