Xen users - Jul 2013 - Dear Ren Yongjie

Hi Yongjie,

I have just compiled and installed Xen 4.3-unstable changeset 26666 and 
Linux kernel 3.8.1, according to your specifications. However, I still 
cannot get success with Intel HD Graphics 4600 IGD VGA passthrough.

Although in Device Manager in Windows 7 HVM domU, it says "This device 
is working properly" for Intel HD Graphics 4600, I can only get 16 
colors. Please refer to the following screenshots.

I have attached the relevant configuration files in this email. Please 
check to see if there are any mistakes.

Output of sudo xl dmesg: http://pastebin.com/knN7Hdg6

Output of dmesg: http://pastebin.com/ixPuUnni

Output of sudo xl info: http://pastebin.com/JRuqi3ay

Output of sudo lspci -vvv: http://pastebin.com/YnL0zSBW

Please advise. I really hope to be able to make Intel HD Graphics 4600 
IGD VGA passthrough work successfully.

Thank you very much.

Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)

Hi Enming,
I can''t reproduce your issue even if I use your Dom0 and guest config.
So, can you can try the following two:
1. use upstream Xen/Dom0 to try since that also works for me.
2. try other HSW CPU (e.g. Core i5-4670 which works for me)

Best Regards,
     Yongjie (Jay)

Dear Yongjie,

What do you mean by upstream Xen/Dom0? I don''t understand.

I am sorry but it is out of budget for me. I can''t buy another cpu to 
test vga passthrough.

By the way, what distro and version are you using for your dom0? Is it 
Ubuntu, Debian, Mint or Fedora?

Dear Yongjie and Xen developers,

I have compiled and installed the latest Xen 4.4-unstable changeset 
27305 and Linux kernel 3.10.3.

Although I did not get error code 43 for Intel HD Graphics 4600 IGD in 
device manager, I am still getting 16 colors only for the monitor!!!

How can I solve this problem?

Hi Yongjie,

I have installed Fedora 19 x86_64 as a dom0 and compiled and installed 
Xen 4.4-unstable changeset 27305 and Linux kernel 3.10.5. Previously I 
was using Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS as dom0.

Although I did not get error code 43 for Intel HD Graphics 4600 in 
device manager, I am still getting only 16 colors on the display. I 
really do not know where the problem lies. Device manager says "This 
device is working properly.", yet I am still getting only 16 colors on 
the display.

Could you share with me your /etc/grub.d/40_custom GRUB2 contents?

Thank you very much.

Dear Yongjie,

I am not sure what went wrong but error code 43 comes back again. All I 
did was to blacklist the i915, nouveau, and snd_hda_intel kernel 
modules, rebuild the initial ramdisk, and turn off gdm. Could you tell 
me what went wrong?

Could you share with us your full GRUB2 configuration and Windows 7 HVM 
domU configuration?

Thank you very much.
