Nvidia 5000 series passthrough , failing miserably.

Good. I have no idea what that means but good for you

EDIT: I remember that the following is also required. Without "PCI-Express" it did not work for me. (The "primary gpu" maybe is not required but it works so I left it alone)

I use the pve kernel, and qemu, and my own modified minirootfs and kernel. I added some functionality that I needed to the kernel.

I solved it. It seems that the 5000 series needs

[device "ich9-pcie-port-1"]
  driver = "pcie-root-port"
  x-speed = "16"
  x-width = "32"
  multifunction = "on"
  bus = "pcie.0"
  addr = "1c.0"
  port = "1"
  chassis = "1"

What were the steps you did to add this code?

Adding a passthrough device from the PVE UI will automatically add this, since I'm using direct run qemu it doesn't add it.

PCI-Express seems to just check if the current machine type is q35..............

A simple solution that took me 2 months was discovering if you bought an early series RTX 5000 series, make sure the firmware is uptodate. I had to put the system into a windows machine, but after that it was able to passthrough perfectly on proxmox.

Yes and the funny thing is that the update utility is labelled for the 5060 and 5060 TI when in fact you can run it on any 5000 Series (did not try on older). I exchanged my 5060 TI for a 5070 TI and I had to run the utility and update the card firmware for it to start to work correctly.
