I suspect that your PCI device does not advertise the capabilities bit in its status register. MSI emulation depends on this bit being set: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/blob/master/usr.sbin/bhyve/pci_passthru.c#L263 I can't see any reason this wouldn't work by emulating that bit and the capabilities pointer in config space. best Neel >> TIA, Felix >> >> -- >> Dipl.-Inform.
