1:34 p.m.
I would really appreciate some pointers on what I am doing wrong here.
I have a need to run multiple virtual guests which have each their own GPU and
some USB controllers passed-through. I am able to run one of the guests like
this (assuming vfio stuff has happened elsewhere), but I would prefer to use
virsh:
kvm -M q35 -m 8192 -cpu host,kvm=off \
-smp 4,sockets=1,cores=4,threads=1 \
-bios /usr/share/seabios/bios.bin -vga none \
-device ioh3420,bus=pcie.0,addr=1c.0,multifunction=on,port=1,chassis=1,id=root.1 \
-device vfio-pci,host=02:00.0,bus=root.1,addr=00.0,multifunction=on,x-vga=on \
-device vfio-pci,host=02:00.1,bus=root.1,addr=00.1 \
-device vfio-pci,host=00:1d.0,bus=pcie.0 \
-device vfio-pci,host=00:1a.0,bus=pcie.0 \
-nographic -boot menu=on /vm2/foo.img
I found the hardware addresses using lspci. When I invoke the same machine with virsh
with what
I believe are the same addresses, I get:
virsh # start foo
error: Failed to start domain foo
error: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor:

I have included dumpxml output below -- is the hostdev section wrong?
