Re: [Xen-devel] We still have to disable vtd for old chipset?
I've been using VT-d with a Dell T7400 myself without seeing this
particular problem. As Keir suggests, I guess you have a pre-retail
version of the machine. That said, I've had to patch up Xen to get my
version of the chipset working. There were some bogus values in the
ACPI tables that determined the scope of the IOMMUs. I'm not sure how
to reliably detect that this problem exists, or whether it's even
worth trying to fix. I've been waiting for updates that solves the
problem, but there hasn't been anything so far. I've attached the
patch in case someone else have similar problems.
