do you have any idea how to solve this issue? - thank you in advance for
any hints (different one than killing the hardware vendor (HP) ;) ...
for the missing IOMMU BIOS option

Thank you in advance for any hints.

Hi,
workaround_bios_bug and workaround_bogus_bios only works for vtd not amd.
You should have IVRS table build by BIOS to enable amd iommu. It could look
like this:
(XEN) ACPI: IVRS AFE7C1ED, 00C8 (r1 AMD RD890S 6040000 AMD 0)
Thanks,
Wei
Thanks a lot for your hints Wei.
All ACPI entries I see in "xm dmesg" are only like below. I didn't find
any IVRS entry

It looks like HP DL385g7 BIOS doesn't offer such IVRS table. Maybe there
is a kind of workaround to use the IOMMU support (890FX chipset / 6176SE
CPUs support it) as it is required for "passing through" PCI devices to
domu domains.
I have tested xen enabled kernels 2.6.32-5, 2.6.39-2 and 3.0.0-rc7 (with
aufs support)

I will upload today the last test xen live iso image (s. below) for
downloads.
(xen41-wheezy-kernel3-amd64-live-gnome-binary-hybrid.iso)
Please take a look for details at:
http://www.it-infrastrukturen.com/fileadmin/linux/debian-live-xen/README.xen
In the (selfmade) used kernel 3.0.0-rc7 packages I have activated
IOMMU-debugging however I have to look for a debug howto.
Thank you in advance for your time.
Regards,
Mark
