Great that you got around to test it.
I did test with the hvm-pirq=0 both pre and post official patch. As you suggested earlier in the thread,
It made no difference for me. I still had the same issues, and the 1x1 link detection.. I tested on Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, Alma and Rocky. (all headless server)
The only other OS was windows, which was the only OS I could get it to do anything, although heavily borked and slower than expected. Intel driver panel was also complaining about PCI compatibility and reBar
Ubuntu is (as far as I know) the main distro that intel test and sync with.
You should test and see if you can get Level Zero and oneApi going. (Needed for any AI work)
I could never get these to start, driver crashed every time. If you can get that to work on Ubuntu, I would suspect it might be a grouping issue on certain motherboards.
Also, What about the missing audio device not showing in the list?
A part of the reason for it being slower without ReBAR (or Resizable BAR) is due to that technology lifting, the 256 MB limit (for per chunk) on CPU accessing GPU VRAM.
To improve performance when passing through modern GPUs (and graphics cards). With lots of VRAM the limit on accessing GPU VRAM by CPU will really crease the performance of the VM at the minimum. So support for ReBAR present in Xen and XCP-ng would help performance, when passing through the GPU. Basically a virtual form of ReBAR support for VMs, when passing through GPUs.
