Hi everyone,
I''m trying to get PCI passthrough to work under XCP and am having one
Hell
of a time with it. I''ve finally gotten the device to appear when doing
an
lspci in the PV DomU but the VM takes forever to boot and keeps giving the
following error, which I can see in the XenCenter console for the VM or by
doing a dmesg in the VM:
mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - Issuing Reset from mpt_config!!,
doorbell=0x24000000
Pciback appears to be seizing the device in Dom0 although it still appears
when doing an lspci... I''m not sure if that''s the expected
behavior or not
as I''m still a little wet behind the ears with this stuff. Any ideas
on
what might be going on here?
System is a Dell PowerEdge T610 server running Xen Cloud Platform 1.5 beta.
I''m trying to allow the VM to access a tape drive.
OS boot parameters from XenCenter: graphical utf8 iommu=soft (I think
this is what I should be using)
