Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 2/2 v2] graphics passthrough with VT-d

Basically I booted up with Intel IGD as the primary video adapter. Dom 0 has IGD while I want to pass through nVidia Geforce 8400 GS PCI-e x16 to my Win XP Home HVM dom U. VGA passthrough still doesn't work on my Intel DQ45CB.

Here is the hexdump of my nVidia Geforce 8400 GS VGA BIOS:

Dear Weidong,

I checked out xen 3.5-unstable changeset 20145.

I applied xen-gfx-passthrough.patch to changeset 20145.

There were some errors with

Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R

So I think the maintainers of xen-unstable had applied some of the patches from xen-gfx-passthrough.patchyou posted to the tree.

Then I applied the rest of the patches:

qemu-gfx-passthrough.patch
xen-load-vbios-file.patch
xen-vBAR-pBAR.patch
qemu-change-for-vBAR-pBAR.patch
qemu-claim-vga-cycle-for-secondary-gfx-passthrough.patch

to changeset 20145 without problems.

Here are the test results. Note that all of the test results are based on starting Windows XP Home HVM domU while in X server on dom0.

If I try to start domU in text mode on dom0 (without X server), then the screen output will be garbaged and I won't be able to type anything at all in dom0 text mode.

Test results with pvops dom 0 kernel 2.6.30-rc3

Tried starting win xp home domu with vcpu=1. DomU crashed and exited, leaving only dom0.

I switched to vcpu=2 for win xp home hvm domU. Now domU does not crash. xm list shows domU running. But vncviewer pops up a QEMU monitor. Looks like win xp home hvm domU did not start. All I get is a QEMU monitor.

Hope the test results helped.

I can start win xp home hvm dom U successfully if i remove pci in domU config and set gfx-passthru=0, basically starting with emulated vga bios instead of passing through pci-e graphics.

Hi,

How about the patch for loading vga bios from .bin file and the 1:1
bar mapping in version 2 release?
    
Let's make the basic patches better and acceptable first. I haven't rebased
the hacks patches on version 2 patches. Currently pls use the hack patches
with version 1 patches. 

Regards,
Weidong

  
Thanks for the version 2.

Subject: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 2/2 v2] graphics passthrough with VT-d

This patch supports basic gfx passthrough on QEMU:
  - disable emulated VGA adpater if there is passthroughed gfx
  - retrieve VGA bios from host 0xC0000, then load it to guest 0xC0000
  - register/unregister legacy VGA I/O ports and MMIOs for
passthroughed gfx
