Hi,
I have a guest enabled vIOMMU, but on the guest there are several devices in the same iommu group.
Could someone help to check if I missed something?
Thank you very much!
1. guest xml:
# virsh edit q
...
<os>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-rhel7.5.0'>hvm</type>
<loader readonly='yes' secure='yes' type='pflash'>/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd</loader>
<nvram>/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/nvram/q_VARS.fd</nvram>
</os>
...
<features>
...
<ioapic driver='qemu'/>
</features>
<cpu mode='host-passthrough' check='none'>
<feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
</cpu>
...
<devices>
...
<controller type='pci' index='7' model='pcie-root-port'>
<model name='pcie-root-port'/>
<target chassis='7' port='0x15'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x5'/>
</controller>
<interface type='network'>

<source network='default'/>
<model type='e1000'/>

</interface>
<iommu model='intel'>
<driver intremap='on' caching_mode='on' iotlb='on'/>
</iommu>
</devices>
...
2. guest has 'intel_iommu=on' enabled in kernel cmdline, then reboot guest
3. log in guest to check:

Thus, can not attach the device to L2 guest:

<source>
<address domain='0x0000' bus='0x07' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
</source>
</hostdev>
# virsh attach-device rhel hostdev.xml
error: Failed to attach device from hostdev.xml
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'device_add': vfio error: 0000:07:00.0: group 2 is not viable
