Another board with working AMD IOMMU: Asus M4A89TD Pro/USB3 Just got it in hands and testet successful!

So the 4.0.0 release could be buggy? When I compile and install xen-4.0-testing.hg tree it works as you described. With 4.0.0 it did not work with any pci device, with xen-4.0-testing.hg tree it works with the two I tested for the moment:00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia (Intel HDA) (rev 40) 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. Device 4381 (rev 11)(I just randomly take two devices). They appear in the hvm virtual machine and they are working.Great, thank you very much!JensAm 17.06.2010 19:16, schrieb Wei Huang:Hi Jens, Thanks for testing it out. I tested Xen 4.0 on my machine this morning. The passthru did work. Here are the details: 1. I used Xen 4.0 (xen-4.0-testing.hg tree) + 2.6.18.8 Dom0 2. My system is a workstation; so it doesn't have a HDA device. Here is what I get from lspci (I skipped some of un-related devices): ========== ... 00:14.0 SMBus: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 SMBus Controller (rev 3b) 00:14.1 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc SB700/SB800 IDE Controller 00:14.3 ISA bridge: ATI Technologies Inc SB700/SB800 LPC host controller 00:14.4 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 PCI to PCI Bridge 00:14.5 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc SB700/SB800 USB OHCI2 Controller ... 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Device 949e 01:00.1 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RV730XT Audio device [Radeon HD 4670] 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82571EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 06) 02:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82571EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 06) 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82572EI Gigabit Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 06) ========== As you can see, I have two NICs (a two-port Intel 82571EB NIC and a single-port 82572EI NIC). I am going to passthru 82571EB NIC to a Linux guest VM. 3. Here is the output from "xm dmesg". Because you also see a similar message, I think your IOMMU is working. (XEN) AMD-Vi: IOMMU 0 Enabled. (XEN) I/O virtualisation enabled (XEN) I/O virtualisation for PV guests disabled FYI, here is my grub entry: ================== title 64bit Xen-unstable on SLES11 root (hd0,5) kernel /boot/xen.gz dom0_mem=512M console=com2 com2=115200,8n1 iommu=1 module /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8 root=/dev/hdb6 resume=/dev/hdb3 module /boot/initrd-2.6.18.8 ================== 4. After login, I removed 82571EB from dom0 > echo -n "0000:02:00.0"> /sys/bus/pci/drivers/e1000e/unbind > echo -n "0000:02:00.1"> /sys/bus/pci/drivers/e1000e/unbind > echo -n "0000:02:00.0"> /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/new_slot > echo -n "0000:02:00.1"> /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/new_slot > echo -n "0000:02:00.0"> /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/bind > echo -n "0000:02:00.1"> /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pciback/bind 5. In guest (ttylinux) configure file, I use the following setting. ... pci=[ '02:00.0', '02:00.1' ] ... 6. After ttylinux booted, I saw two Intel NICs. The IP address was obtained automatically. See the attached image file. Same as what Konrad has mentioned, I would recommend two things: i) instead of passthru HDA, try other independent PCIe devices first (such as NICs); ii) configure the passthru devices in guest configure file, instead of use it a hot-plug device. I can send you my guest configure file if you need it. PS: I am pretty confident HDA passthru work because I tested it on an desktop system before. Here is the list of devices I have passthru to a Win7 guest VM on that system: (1) USB keyboard and mouse; (2) HDA audio; (3) ATI graphics.

I now have a Asus Crosshair IV for testing and this board (as I postet earlier) supports iommu. Now I have installed Debian lenny (5.0) and compiled xen 4.0.0. Xen is running now and I have installed a hvm debian lenny to which I would like to bind a pci device but that doesn't work. Perhaps I am doing something wrong and you could help me?Is that the _only_ PCI device you have tried to assign? Did you try to assign other PCI devices which have the function number being zero?and xm dmesg this: (XEN) domctl.c:853:d0 XEN_DOMCTL_assign_device: assign device (0:14.2) failedThat is not very useful. Wish it gave you the return code at least. If you are comfortable with adding printks in the Xen hypervisor I would modify it a bit to see what was the 'ret' value and why 'intel_iommu_assign_device' function failed.So can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong??Please also attach the full serial long, including the Xen one - and run it with 'loglvl=all iommu=verbose'._______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
