Hello Joerg, hello Alex,

the subsequent patch and the patch "iommu/amd: Re-enable IOMMU event log
interrupt after handling." 925fe08bce38d1ff052fe2209b9e2b8d5fbb7f98
spread /var/log/messages with the following line (> 700 lines/second)
right after loading vfio:

AMD-Vi: Event logged [IO_PAGE_FAULT device=00:14.0 domain=0x0000 
address=0x000000fdf9103300 flags=0x0600]

lspci -vvvs 0:14.0
00:14.0 SMBus: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI SBx00 SMBus Controller (rev 
42)
        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- 
Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx+
        Status: Cap- 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- 
<TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx-


Besides the enormous pollution I couldn't see any malfunction at all.
At first, I didn't realised it at all (-> the SSD was fast enough to
cover it silently). I saw it the first time I rebooted because X didn't start 
any more because
the /var partition was completely full. 

I removed the two mentioned patches and all is working
fine again as before.

Any idea?


Thanks,
kind regards,
Andreas
