similar to: Which QEMU device-model to use for Windows HVM guests???

This bug, at its core, is that currently there is no supported solution for VGA passthrough on Xen for stable version Jessie from Debian. After browsing Xen's repositories, I found out that Xen did not claim to support VGA passthrough with the upstream qemu-xen device model until Sep 25, 2015, the date the xl.cfg man page was updated to indicate support for VGA passthrough with upstream

Hi, I''m doing VGA passthrough for an ATI (HD 6770) graphics card to a DomU Windows. The passthrough itself is working. However, everytime when I reboot the DomU Windows, the whole machine freezes. I see no error messages from Dom0 kernel or the xen qemu log (or perhaps I haven''t got the most verbose debugging turned on?). Though from what I can tell, the the freeze happens

Hi- I am trying to pass an LSI SAS2008-based HBA (IBM M1015) through to an HVM Solaris VM, using Xen 4.2 unstable and the qemu-traditional device model. On boot I see the following error: MPT BIOS Fault 09h encountered at adapter PCI(00h,05h,00h) A list search yielded (http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.xen.devel/128172), however there was no solution for an HVM VM. I''ve

From what I gather, for now, you MUST select a non-default model, using something like: device_model_version="qemu-xen" device_model_override="/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64" > In the context of Debian the

Package: xen-utils-4.3 Version: 4.3.0-3+b1 Severity: normal When I try to create an HVW withDevian/xen, I run into trouble. It used to work, maybe with xen 4.1, but it has never worked since. Bug 688311 was filed, with the same exact problem. That bug was somehow closed and no resolution or explanation was provided. I have seen posts mentioning "traditional" and "upstream"

So, I made a mistake a bought four systems with the Intel Core i3 processors, without doing my homework to make sure that these systems actually supported VTd. Turns out there''s plenty of information out there indicating that the Core i3 processors do *not* support VTd. I was counting on VTd for two applications: Graphics Passthrough and passing through a PCIe 4-port serial card. Of

Hello everyone! With the completion of our first few release candidates for 4.2, it''s time to look forward and start planning for the 4.3 release. I''ve volunteered to step up and help coordinate the release for this cycle. The 4.2 release cycle this time has been nearly a year and a half. One of the problems with having such a long release is that people who get in features

Hi all I''m trying to enable VGA passthrough in linux domU without success. I want to pass through AMD Radeon HD 4850 - 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RV770 [Radeon HD 4850] as a _primary_ VGA for the VM. Nothing is showing up on the monitor that I have connected to graphics card''s HDMI port. I have IOMMU enabled. I searched mailing lists

Hi, everyone! I am working on xen-4.2.0 with spice remote connect. My host is Fedora 14 and guest is win7. I have installed spice package and now I can connect to guest by spice client. For better graphics experience, I want to try the VGA passthrough. With spice tool, I have to create a VM by xl command, and now I am wondering if it supports VGA passghrouth? If so, how should I test it ?

Hello, I recently swapped some components, and rebuilt my system. Changes to the configuration: - Wheezy Beta 1 > Wheezy Beta 2 - Kernel 3.4.9 > Kernel 3.4.11 I have tested the new Xen 4.2 stable, and Xen unstable revision 25777, both are giving me the same error so I do not believe it is related to a change in Xen. The first attempt to pass a PCI device after booting the system
