Hi there,
in order to root my new tablet I got the idea to get the needed modules by starting a virtual machine.
For that reason I wanted to pass the USB controller to the guest. My computer is a Dell T5500 workstation, which supports vm-x. It's enabled in the BIOS and compiled into the kernel. Moreover I put intel_iommu=y to the Grub parameters.

0000:00:1a.7 is the USB controller I wanted to pass to the guest machine. In Virtmanager I can add the device to the guest configuration. But when I try to start the vm I get:
| Code: | if ret == -1: raise libvirtError ('virDomainCreate() failed', dom=self)
libvirtError: Unsupported configuration: host doesn't support passthrough of host PCI devices |
What's wrong here? Do I have to add a useflag to enable the pci passthrough?

I got VT-d working in the past with Gentoo and libvirt, but riped out the support for that quite some time ago and can't show you my config now... I would say first make sure that the PCI device is really unused after boot and bound to the stup driver. Could be libvirt is managin that somewow, but I think I had a boot varible for that...
It also may be tricky for libvirt to unbind one device from the usb driver, I don't know a obvious way to do that without unloading the driver first.
When I set it up the best docu was from Xen, but nowadays this seems to cover the needed steps well:
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/How_to_assign_devices_with_VT-d_in_KVM
Chances are you can find out what's wrong when following guide above.
Good luck! |
