    • RE: Nvidia P40s with XCP-ng 8.3 for inference and light training

      I just added a P4 to one of my hosts for exactly this. My servers can only handle low-profile cards, so the P4 fits. Not the most powerful of GPU's but I can get my feet wet.

    • RE: nVidia Tesla P4 for vgpu and Plex encoding

      From my perspective, there's literally money on the ground for any virtualization platform to pick up VDI with Intel. The GPU's are affordable and performant for VDI work. They currently work with Openshift and Proxmox is at work on it.

    • RE: Centos 9 . why nobody use this OS?!

      When IBM/RedHat "killed" CentOS, the rest of the world took a hint and left. Companies and projects left CentOS in droves as the future of their products were in jeopardy due to the loss of CentOS.

      At this point, the damage is done.

    • RE: Epyc VM to VM networking slow

      These latest 8.3 update speeds are still slower than a 13 year-old Xeon E3 1230.

    • RE: XOA/XO from Sources S3 backup feature usage/status

      @Andrew Thanks for that added detail.

      Your success to Wasabi is encouraging. Perhaps Planedrops performance issues with BackBlaze B2 is related to a specific combination of implementation of S3 between BackBlaze and XO.

      Things to test:

      XO to AWS
      XO to Wasabi
      XO to BackBlaze

      Theoretically, the performance should be the same to all S3 endpoints.

    • RE: PCIe Pass-through lanes and lane performance

      Alright....I might be seeing something here...From the CLI of the XCP-ng host itself...

      Here's the lspci tree view of interest:

       +-[0000:80]-+-00.0  Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Starship/Matisse Root Complex
 |           +-00.2  Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Starship/Matisse IOMMU
 |           +-01.0  Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Starship/Matisse PCIe Dummy Host Bridge

      So PCI slots 81-84 are what I'm interested in...Digging in on 81:

      Specifically there I see the correct width and speed of the PCIe interface for the card.

      Nothing shows up for 82 (I presume that's a bridge to get to the functions on the card)

      83 is the actual graphics processor itself:

      As far as XO (from sources) is concerned, I can turn on pass-through for 83, but it doesn't show me 81, 82, or 84.

      Should I just manually block off 81-84 and pass all of those devices to the guest VM?

    • RE: PCIe Pass-through lanes and lane performance

      @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.

    • RE: PCIe Pass-through lanes and lane performance

      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?

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

      @TeddyAstie

      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?

      @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've dabbled with some PCIe settings, but I'm not really getting anywhere.

      Here's a link to the manual:

      Thanks!

      @redakula

      First, thanks for chiming in. Second...I'll admit that I'm ignorant here. This is not an area that I have any real experience.

      The Intel doc reference (paraphrasing here) "magic lspci" options that will truly show you that the GPU isn't really running in Gen1x1 and that deeper down, its truly working as intended. I wish they would have just included the super-secret magic lspci options needed to show this is the case...But they didn't.

      The best I can see from lspci -vvxxxx is it still only shows Gen1x1

      When I ask the system what it thinks the capabilities are, again I get Gen1x1:

      cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:08.0/current_link_speed
      2.5 GT/s PCIe
      cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:08.0/current_link_width
      1
      cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:08.0/max_link_speed
      2.5 GT/s PCIe
      cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:08.0/max_link_width
      1

      I know I'm a bit out in uncharted territory here. I don't think XCP-ng supports ReBAR via pass-through (I think that's on the road-map for XenServer9 and maybe XCP-ng 9 as well), current gen GPUs all want ReBAR support, Intel GPU's are in a mostly experimental/developmental mode and might be having a murky future anyway...

      Anyway...From my completely uninformed and ignorant position, it doesn't look like it's negotiating PCIe properly through XCP-ng.

    • RE: PCIe Pass-through lanes and lane performance

      @acebmxer Supermicro server systems. The Eypc CPU's have 128 lanes of PCIe Gen4. The cards are inserted into appropriate slots.

      I just updated the BIOS and BMC code on the server with the Intel GPU. I went through and re-enabled all the SR-IOV stuff and made sure ReBAR was enabled.

      Still, GPU-Z reports that a Windows guest with the Intel GPU passed-through is linked up with a single lane of PCIe gen 1.

      I suppose that could be cosmetic, however passing through the same Intel GPU to a Debian VM has issues when trying to initialize the card on boot and I can't get it to work there at all. It will at least do something in Windows.
