Okay so I've already successfully passed through an nVidia GTX 650 to a windows guest, although I don't use this now. I also pass through a DVBSky S2 card to a linux guest for my sat stuff. Today arrived my new OpenVox PCIe with 1x FXO card...basically so I can connect to my phone line and run a small PBX/SIP telephony switch. However I'm getting something I've not seen before when attempting to passthrough the card and would appreciate any pointers...
Host: ASRock z97 || Ubuntu 15.04 || Kernel 3.19.30 (acs patched) || Intel IGP which isn't used || nVidia GTX 650 for host gfx || DVB-S2 Sat card for vm guest
Without acs patching my kernel iommu is impossible aka lots of devices combined in groups. Post patching my group separation is good and allows my DVB card (currently the only device in passthrough) shown in IOMMU group 19 below so all is good. The new card however shows in group 20 along with 1 other device...I've swapped the PCIe slots the DVB card and the OpenVox card use, the DVB always remains the only device in a group but the OpenVox card is always combined with the ASMedia device. The error message I get when starting the guest isn't what I would expect if this was an IOMMU separation problem, the key bit of the error I'm homing in on is "vfio: Error: Failed to setup INTx fd: Device or resource busy".
Thanks

- Can anyone help me understand the purpose of the other device in the IOMMU group along with the OpenVox card?
- What does the error message mean?
- Any suggestions for how I might work through this problem to pass the OpenVox through to my VM?
Thanks
