PCIe Pass-through lanes and lane performance

@john.c

Yes indeed. SVM has been enabled as well as SR-IOV and IOMMU.

That should be all good for full virtualization and support pass-through and SR-IOV features.

I haven't cleared the PCI pass-through masking in Dom0, but below is the same lspci command from Dom0. I'm pretty sure I'm running the latest 8.3 with all the current patches. This could just be a kernel issue?

[JamesG]

Not to be a nuisance...But just curious if there are other thoughts on this.

[TeddyAstie]

@JamesG Can you try having a workload on the GPU (and also checking if the performance is lower, or if it's just display) ?

[MajorP93]

Hello!
Just an idea but maybe the PCI link speed you are seeing is related to some sort of energy saving feature?
Background: I have a Nvidia GPU in my PC and when there is no load the PCIe speed is lowered from PCIe 4.0 to 1.1 due to energy saving feature.

So yeah, I think @teddyastie 's idea is a good approach here. Try how your setup behaves during a workload.

[redakula]

@MajorP93

I spent quite some time on this when i first got an Arc card and all research i found points to Linux reporting the top of the PCIE chain only. The card has an internal bridge.

The only tool i found that reports the correct info is GPU-Z which is unfortunately windows only.

My A310 which also reports PCIE x 1 in linux reports the correct link speed in GPU-Z (It is in a X4 slot so that is why it is not showing the X8 that the card is...)

[john.c]

Is there anything mentioned in the motherboard or service manuals, about where if one PCIe slot is occupied another is running at reduced speed when occupied?

Something like this is in the manual for a Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite (Rev 1.0) motherboard, for example. Can be in yours, somewhere written on one of its pages.

[JamesG]

So I ordered some mini DP dummy plugs and took a look at this further today.

First thought...Just load Windows on the bare metal and see what the card does.

No problem. Loaded Win10, loaded the latest drivers, PCIe Gen4x8 lanes. Sweet. At least that works.

Put the XCP-ng drive back in, booted up, passed-through the GPU to a Win11 guest, updated the drivers, PCIe Gen1x1.

Ultimately I need to install a Linux distro with a really current kernel on the bare metal and see how it sees the GPU. That might be a good project for tomorrow.

I think this just comes down to a combination of too new, not well supported hardware with some quirks and somewhat dated code and support in XCP-ng (ReBAR support in guests for example).

@redakula Is that GPU-z screenshot from a Windows guest VM with the A310 passed through?

[yannsionneau]

Maybe let's ping the entire @Team-Hypervisor-Kernel here

[JamesG]

@yannsionneau I appreciate that. I will gladly provide access to the hardware if anybody in development wants to dig in and see what's going on.

No problem. Loaded Win10, loaded the latest drivers, PCIe Gen4x8 lanes. Sweet. At least that works.

Put the XCP-ng drive back in, booted up, passed-through the GPU to a Win11 guest, updated the drivers, PCIe Gen1x1.

As I explained briefly in https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/106479, this is mostly display as the real hardware may be running at a different speed.

Ultimately I need to install a Linux distro with a really current kernel on the bare metal and see how it sees the GPU. That might be a good project for tomorrow.

I think this just comes down to a combination of too new, not well supported hardware with some quirks and somewhat dated code and support in XCP-ng (ReBAR support in guests for example).

I did quick checks and I believe that ReBAR works; at least with UEFI guests (our OVMF build does support resizable bar), and it actually works as suggest https://xcp-ng.org/forum/post/106489 (VRAM BAR is 16 GB); but I didn't do extensive testing in that area.
