I think my IOMMU or VT-x & VT-d might not be working correctly
Here we go...
I tried to include all relevant information on getting a pci passthrough to work so everything is clear
I've been following along with this guide and this video (the video is sort of a walk-through of the Puget guide) to get pci passthrough working with Qemu KVM.
I enabled IOMMU and when I run:
I get:
So that means that IOMMU is enabled, right? wrong.
I used a command recommended to someone else with a similiar problem
and I get no terminal output, just a new line
This makes me believe that IOMMU is not actually enabled, I have gone into my bios and enabled the "Intel Virtualization Technology" and it doesn't seem to work
System Specs:
My Grub config file (I grub-update after every change):
My /etc/vfio-pci1.cfg file:
My /etc/modules file:
The current relevant output of a lspci -nnk command:
If you need me to provide any more information or config files, just ask!
Please help! been pulling my hair out for days over this!
