QEMU GPU vfio-pci pass through

@tlosm
Quote:May be a problem on a real PegasosII, but @balaton fixed all problems (by converting 64 bit BARs to 32 bit, interrupt related fixes, etc.) in his bboot.fth and BBoot, and probably in QEmu itself as well.
There should be no problems using the QEmu emulation of the PegasosII any more with PCIe gfx cards, at least not with AmigaOS 4.x, MorphOS may be different.
Using BBoot on a real PegasosII is probably not possible, but using bboot.fth should be, and it might even help getting PCIe gfx cards working with a PCI<->PCIe bridge.
The real AmigaOne SE/XE/µA1 systems have at least 100 times as much problems, hardware limits and bugs as the QEmu emulation of it, but QEmu doesn't emulate the hardware limits and bugs of the PegasosII and AmigaOne SE/XE/µA1

Several people got Radeon HD/RX PCIe cards working with vfio-pci with QEmu, and all used the PegasosII emulation since it used to be the best one for AmigaOS 4.x.
Now, with NVRAM support etc. added, the AmigaOne XE emulation is probably better than the PegasosII one for AmigaOS 4.x.
Sam4x0 emulation is too slow, one of the reasons is the missing "real" MMU, using TLB caches instead, which cause a lot of exceptions, and which probably can't be fixed/worked around in the QEmu emulation.
However, only @geenaam got vfio-pci working with usable speeds, for everyone else it was extremely slow, the real Radeon PCIe gfx card was even much slower than using SM501/502 software emulation.

What @white has to fix are the iommu groups, the Radeon gfx card has to be in a separate group with nothing else (required by the host) in it.
The easiest, and maybe only, option is trying to use a different PCIe slot for the Radeon gfx card.

Just to clarify a bit: I use bboot on real pegasos2 and it works fine. It speed up loading of os4 for about 10 seconds (30s vs 40s with os4s loader)

And, while maybe not very important at the moment because of "beta":

Quote:

In beta kernel for os4 all this also fixed already, and i can use real RadeonRx and RadeonHd via bridges, but.. that not released for now, sadly.

Quote:

Swapping PCI slots is one way. The other is to use ACS-overwrite. This requires both a new kernel and some lines in the grub boot. I don't have the link handy that tells how to do that, butas for the ACS overwrite/patch, you just need ot install linux-zen as the kernel (I think I did that on arch linux using pacman -Sy linux-zen or similar... can be found online). Think it is similar on ubuntu-based systems.

After that, and reboot, etc, you will see only a single pci device per IOMMU group (you will have many groups). You can then just make a '-device ' entry in the qemu command line for just the video part and not bother with the audio if you don't want.

@themamboman

CachyOS based on Arch and its Linux kernels also have similar functionality.

https://wiki.cachyos.org/cachyos_basic/why_cachyos/
https://github.com/CachyOS/kernel-patches

The Linux kernel for the desktop in popular distributions is best recompiled yourself.
The versions included in the distributions are too (so to speak...) neutral.

Current situation
It seems that ACS with the Liquorix kernel is now working or so it seems.
I always write what I do so as to keep a reference page in the Forum.

Steps:
uname -r
6.14. 0-1-liquorix-amd64

then use the Kernel Stub:

sudo kernelstub --add-options "pcie_acs_override=downstream,multifunction" <<<----- THIS ENABLES ACS IOMMU with Liquorix kernel

sudo update-initramfs -u


reboot

It seems that ACS is now enabled with the Liquorix Kernel

@Balaton
now the IOMMU groups are divided
despite this

the result is this:
sudo qemu-system-ppc -M pegasos2 -bios /home/white/Scaricati/pegasos2.rom -m 1024 -serial stdio -device VGA,romfile="" -drive if=none,id=hd,file=/home/white/Scaricati/32gb.raw,format=raw -device ide-hd,drive=hd,bus=ide.1 -netdev user,id=tap0 -device rtl8139,netdev=tap0 -vga none -drive if=none,id=hd1,file=/home/white/Scaricati/coffin.raw,format=raw -device ide-hd,drive=hd1,bus=ide.1 -device vfio-pci,host=03:00.0,bus=pci.0 -device vfio-pci.host=03:00.1,bus=pci.0 -accel tcg

qemu-system-ppc: -device vfio-pci,host=03:00.0,bus=pci.0: vfio 0000:03:00.0: Could not open '/dev/vfio/20': No such file or directory

I guess there is something to fix although IOMMU now seems to work fine.

But a step forward has been made now this can be applied to any Linux distribution with Liquorix kernel.

additional information if it may be useful:
sudo dmesg | grep -i -e DMAR -e IOMMU

Next step

Using a distribution with GRUB Ubuntu+Kernel Liquorix
clean installation
is to use the commands directly in GRUB
without Aliases for the GPU

waiting for your advice

@All

Vfio 0000:41:00.0: failed to open /dev/vfio/32: No such file or directory - QEMU

Here is a link that is related to the error:

If you take a look maybe it's the solution but I can't understand it

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61 ... ch-file-or-directory-qemu

example:

You need bind your PCI device to the vfio-pci driver.

Unbind pci device from its previous driver

echo "0000:03:00.0" > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:03:00.0/driver/unbind

Bind to vfio-pci driver

echo 1002 6798 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/vfio-pci/new_id

Where 8086 is the vendor id of the PCI device, and a36d is device id of the PCI device <<<----- WHAT SHOULD I PUT THIS HERE ? (vendor id)

Check and vfio group should be present, and Qemu can run.

ls -l /dev/vfio/

Can someone give me an example for the syntax that would be useful for the Radeon GPU I'm using ?

probably I have to fix the creation of:
vfio-pci
/dev/vfio/20

or the correct procedure is the one mentioned above but I can't figure out how to bind the GPU with:
Bind to vfio-pci driver


In the meantime I'm going to make myself some spaghetti with clams, garlic and parsley
And I'll think about it a bit
