Hi Lists,
I'm having troubles getting vga passthrough working again with latest xen-4.3.1.
My system is a bulldozer amd 8core cpu with a gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5
motherboard.
The host system uses a amd hd6850 while the guest (windows 7) uses a
amd hd 7970.
So far everything worked great until xsa-36 [1]. I've haven't updated
xen since this "fix", but yesterday i'll gave it another try. I've
updated to xen-4.3.1 and tried to fix those broken ivrs tables with
the newly introduced ivrx_ioapic kernel parameter. I'm not sure if this
should help me, but at least it sounds promising.
However i didn't get it to work and i hope someone can give my some hints
how to fix that, otherwise i have to downgrade xen again.

menuentry 'Gentoo Linux XEN' {

I've tried a few other configuration's (like adding the ivrs_ioapic parameter
to the module line in grub or also adding
vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1
to the cmdline), but so far i couldn't get it to work.
Since i'm not completely sure what i actually have to insert at the kernel
parameter i'm glad if someone could give me some insight. However, since
the output of xl dmesg is always the same, even though with or without
the parameter, i might missed some additional parameters.
If you need any more information, I'll be glad to provide them.
Thanks in advance.
Michael
