Re: [Xen-users] vga passthrough with amd radeon r9 285

[Brian Paterni <bpaterni@xxxxxxxxx>]

One more thing I tried:

I do have an older radeon hd 4850 running as the primary gpu for
another, non-xen system. This device does have a sysfs interface for
reset at

/sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/reset

So I figured I would swap out the secondary r9 285 with the 4850. Now
when I attempt to create a windows domu with gfx_passthru=1, there is no
longer any complaint that 'the kernel doesn't support reset from sysfs'.
Unfortunately though, the 4850 is still not getting passed through:

    libxl: error:
libxl_exec.c:227:libxl__xenstore_child_wait_deprecated: Device Model not
ready
    libxl: error: libxl_pci.c:879:qemu_pci_add_xenstore: qemu refused to
add device: 0000:06:00.0,msitranslate=0,power_mgmt=0
    libxl: error: libxl_create.c:1413:domcreate_attach_pci:
libxl_device_pci_add failed: -3

Maybe there is something else at work here preventing vga passthrough?...

I've attached verbose debug output of the xl create attempt with the
radeon hd 4850.

Also attached should be a /var/log/xen/qemu-dm-windows7.log. Looking at
that, there seem to be several problems in creating the windows7 domu,
but I'm not all that certain on how to resolve them.
