@ich777 Is the unraid-kernel-helper container usable to try and create a custom kernel based on 5.17 (for better Alder Lake support)? I would also like to add the latest drivers for the Aquantia 5Gbe and 10Gbe NICs (vers. 2.4.15 released 2022-02-22, i.e. yesterday or today depending on your time zone). I've tried the latest drivers (3.1.6.0) on Win10 x64 and they did improve my connection with far fewer packet retransmits so I'm hoping the Linux driver does the same.

Already answered on Discord, you can try to compile it but I really can't tell if it is working.

Also keep in mind that I forgot to remove the container from DockerHub and I will be removing it in the next few days from DockerHub.

It's already marked as being only compatible to 6.9.2, but if you're removing it very shortly, then I'm going to pre-emptively blacklist it.

 

What about the companion plugin?

Both of them can be blacklisted.

Thank you @Squid!

I installed the Intel Top plugin and also plugged a dummy HDMI into the HDMI port on the motherboard but still getting the following error message in the terminal:

Do I need to reboot the array? I have attached the diagnostic file

No, but don't do a manual modprobe.

 

Please note that Alder Lake isn't fully supported yet and I get many messages about that.

 

That has nothing to do with the plugin but rather with the Kernel.

Please reboot once more and the send over the Diagnostocs again.

 

Please also keep in mind that many users reported a complete crash from the entire server when using an Alder Lake iGPU for HW transcoding.

Thanks for the update, I actually wanted to use the plugin for unmanic to concert my old movie files, I guess I have to wait till 6.10rc3 which is supposed to be the new kernel

Yes, but not that new...

You can at least try if you can get it to work.

What do you mean?

Are you using Unraid 6.9.2?

Simply download the Nvidia Driver plugin.

Hey ! 

Just dont get the point of the plugin, am under 6.9.10-RC2 i installed the Vendor Reset plugin for my 5700Xt, i've nothing else to do ? no config or something ?

Nope, the plugin install all necessary modules from gnif over here on Github, tries to catch when you end a VM and tries to reset the card.

Keep in mind this is more a workaround than a patch... It would be necessary that the manufacturer from the card updates the firmware to properly solve this issue.

Thank for you answer 

But seems doesnt work for me

I installed the Win 10 VM , the plugin seems enables but i get this error : 

2022-02-28T15:13:15.491827Z qemu-system-x86_64: vfio: Cannot reset device 0000:0c:00.1, no available reset mechanism.

And my card is always code 43 (i can confirm the card work under windows native OS)

And the card is binded to VFIO PCI as required : 



Dont get where i miss .... 

Amd under Q35, tried with and without dumped rom ... 

Any solution ?  


Edit : 
Just get this is the Audio part who can't be resetted 

Edited February 28, 2022 by Nackophilz
Saw what is the exact device who cant be reset

Do you boot Unraid with Legacy or UEFI?

I would strongly recommend that you boot with Legacy for best results and as machine type like you've already selected Q35.

Can you try to unbind it from VFIO and try what happens if you pass it through without VFIO?

 

Keep in mind this patch is certainly not compatible with different cards out there, I would also recommend that you try to open up a issue on Github.

I'm not sure if this is the right place but hopefully someone can help me.

I'm trying to make the following work with Unraid 6.9.2

The Script needs the kernel modules ac.ko and battery.ko which are not natively included in Unraid. The script inserts the modules into the running kernel using insmod. The author of the script used the now deleted unraid-kernel-helper docker to compile those two modules for unraid 6.9.0.

This docker image was deleted in the meantime and now I'm trying to figure out a (hopefully) easy alternative to compile those 2 modules for 6.9.2.

Can someone support me or point me in the right direction?

I can do that for you but this is a really rare/niche use case I think or am I wrong?

 

I deprecated it because you basically can add every module with plugins or similar and also the backup function that is built into Unraid won't work with custom images.

That would be just awesome! I appreciate it a lot!

I guess those modules are only relevant for people running unraid on a laptop, so I guess kinda niche. Although I'm surprised that not more people are doing that cause IMO a laptop is the perfect homeserver.

Not for mass storage, which is the core piece of Unraid.

Just the Nvidia Driver plugin is enough if you want to use your Nvidia card for HW transcoding in Docker containers.

Yes of course. Whenever it is suitable for you. It's not urgent at all. Thanks!

Please look in the thread that you've linked, I've already compiled it.

as 6.10 RC3 was released is the iGPU still not supported as the top plugin is still not working when I type intel_gpu_top it still does not find anything, or will this still take a while before this will be supported

As @SimonF pointed out, what CPU are you using, can you upload your Diagnostics please?

 

If you are talking about Alder Lake I would really appreciate if you are upload your Diagnostics.
