[vfio-users] new video card. vm wont boot

[Roger Lawhorn]

Got it. It now takes over the new radeon card.
0d:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. 
[AMD/ATI] Navi 14 [Radeon RX 5500/5500M / Pro 5500M] [1002:7340] (rev c5)
     Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation Device [1849:5123]
     Kernel driver in use: vfio-pci
     Kernel modules: amdgpu
0d:00.1 Audio device [0403]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Navi 
10 HDMI Audio [1002:ab38]
     Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation Device [1849:5123]
     Kernel driver in use: vfio-pci


I had to change the vfio-pci options when adding to the boot line like this:
vfio-pci.ids=1002:7340,1002:ab38

from this:
/etc/modprobe.d/rad.conf
options vfio-pci ids=1002:7340,1002:ab38
