I have unfortunately returned the card by now while I still had time so I can't test it further. It would be really nice if we could somehow force vfio to do a reset so that we would know if it is even possible for a card. Is there any cheap (perferably AMD) card that I can get which is known to downright work properly with vfio reset?<br> <br> <div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> <hr tabindex="-1" style="display:inline-block; width:98%"> <div id="divRplyFwdMsg" dir="ltr"><font style="font-size:11pt" face="Calibri, sans-serif" color="#000000"><b>From:</b> Nicolas Roy-Renaud <nicolas.roy-renaud.1@ens.etsmtl.ca><br> <b>Sent:</b> 05 July 2016 07:20 PM<br> <b>To:</b> Gerhard de Clercq<br> <b>Cc:</b> vfio-users<br> <b>Subject:</b> Re: [vfio-users] No reset on GT730</font> <div> </div> </div> <div> <p>Hmm... It's hard to tell from here if this is due to a misconfiguration or from an actual qemu issue. Would you mind checking sections 1, 2 and 3 of this <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF">tutorial</a> to make sure that your system is properly configured? Section 4 is geared more towards libvirt, while you appear to be using qemu so you can skip that one. I get that you have no issues with your VM as of now aside from that reboot problem, but for all we know, it might just be some driver override issue.</p> <p><br> </p> <p>- Nicolas<br> </p> <br> <div class="moz-cite-prefix">On 2016-07-05 02:05, Gerhard de Clercq wrote:<br> </div> <blockquote type="cite"> <div id="divtagdefaultwrapper" style="font-size:12pt; color:#000000; background-color:#FFFFFF; font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"> <p>Ok thanks for the info.

What makes you so sure that the issue comes from the gpu not resetting, is dmesg returning anything suspicious or is your qemu command completing successfully after you shutdown your VM? If you're not using libvirt, qemu is supposed to log error messages in the standard error stream instead, does anything abnormal come up when the VM shuts down?<br> </p> <p><br> </p> <p>- Nicolas<br> </p> <br> <div class="moz-cite-prefix">On 2016-07-04 15:46, Gerhard de Clercq wrote:<br> </div> <blockquote type="cite"> <div id="divtagdefaultwrapper" style="font-size:12pt; color:#000000; background-color:#FFFFFF; font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif"> <p>I was actually running though command line so no libvirt log and I didn't see anything in journalctl though I'm not entirely sure what to look for.

I have determined that this is most likely caused by the fact that the GPU is not being reset. I bought this GPU because it has UEFI support after I could not get another one working with BIOS. It appeared as if though only AMD GPUs had a reset problem. Is this a known problem with this GPU and is there any way that I can try to force a reset?<br> </p> </div> <br> <fieldset class="mimeAttachmentHeader"></fieldset> <br> <pre>_______________________________________________ vfio-users mailing list <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:vfio-users@redhat.com">vfio-users@redhat.com</a> <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/vfio-users">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/vfio-users</a> </pre> </blockquote> <br> </div> </blockquote> <br> </div> </blockquote> <br> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html>
