Make sure you have the latest BIOS for that board. Some of the ASUS boards needed an update for IOMMU. > On May 18, 2016, at 2:28 PM, Alex Williamson > wrote: > > [re-adding vfio-users] > >> On Wed, May 18, 2016 at 1:48 PM, Brian Yglesias >>

Re: [vfio-users] Strange behavior with recent update. ACS(?) & VFIO

2016-08-02 Thread A de Beus
Just as a comment, I have a similar system, though no ACS, also recently updated Arch and noticed a change in libvirt behavior. Specifically, my VM which didn't autostart for some reason (there were multiple cryptic errors in the journal) started autostarting again. (It worked when I first set

Re: [vfio-users] intel_iommu=on and aacraid / Adaptec 3805

2016-07-12 Thread A de Beus
One can only imagine that the driver for this particular piece of hardware uses the iommu. The only other case I know of is the AMD cards with their proprietary driver, which is incompatible with activating iommu in the bios. Here the conflict must be in the aacraid driver. If I were smarter,

Re: [vfio-users] Awful boot times, current OVMF to blame?

2017-07-24 Thread A de Beus
I would definitely agree that it is not OVMF or Arch: I've seen a few reports of really long boots with Windows 10 recently on physical hardware. I run Arch with Win 7 on OVMF and have not seen any change in boot time behavior. My hardware is a bit older with a 4930k and Quadro K2000. Can

Don’t know if it’s the same thing, but I have some USB satellite/TV adapters made by PCTV systems that behave in a similar manner under Windows 7. I assumed these devices are doing some unusual or non standard USB thing that isn’t documented. A de Beus > On Oct 28, 2017, at 6:55

[vfio-users] libvirt-3.0.0 from libvirt-2.4.0 breaks Windows VMs

2017-01-26 Thread Anthony M de Beus
Haven't seen mention of this elsewhere yet, not sure if this is the best place to post it. I just updated to libvirt-3.0.0-1 on Arch from libvirt-2.4.0-2 and my Windows VMs no longer start. Reverting to libvirt-2.4.0-2 reverses the problem. The problem affects Windows 7 and XP, the XP machine
