Hello everyone! Trying to follow the steps outlined here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/assigning-devices/#pci-passthrough-issues
Created a service, BUT it fails to start systemctl status gives qubes-netvm.service - Qubes NetVM startup Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/qubes-netvm.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (exited) since Sat 2017-01-07 15:31:11 EAT; 35min ago Process: 4150 ExecStart=/bin/sh -c NETVM=`qubes-prefs --get default-netvm`; [ -n "$NETVM" ] && qvm-start -q --no-guid $NETVM (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 4150 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) CGroup: /system.slice/qubes-netvm.service Jan 07 15:31:01 dom0 systemd[1]: Starting Qubes NetVM startup... Jan 07 15:31:05 dom0 runuser[5099]: pam_unix(runuser:session): session opened for user user1 by (uid=0) Jan 07 15:31:05 dom0 runuser[5099]: pam_unix(runuser:session): session closed for user user1 Jan 07 15:31:05 dom0 runuser[5102]: pam_unix(runuser:session): session opened for user user1 by (uid=0) Jan 07 15:31:11 dom0 runuser[5102]: pam_unix(runuser:session): session closed for user user1 Jan 07 15:31:11 dom0 systemd[1]: Started Qubes NetVM startup. HOWEVER, after startup I can do in dom0 terminal: sudo /bin/sh -c 'echo 0000:04:00.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/permissive' and the permissive mode is set allright (and yes, the device I want to "permissivize" really is 0000:04:00.0 on my machine. Huge coincidence, I too was amused) I have to then reboot the VM (which is mighty annoying because it's a netvm) and everything seems to work out allrightey (fingers crossed very intensely) Any pointers why it can't see the target device "right away" ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
