Hello, i use encrypted zvol's for my desktop vm's by manually creating them, and then linking them to the VM's using the qm set command, for example: qm set 102 -scsi0 /dev/zvol/zpool_800G/debian-root,discard=on,ssd=1,cache=directsync,iothread=1 but is there an equivalent command for...

i have no idea, but you could start with numactl -H

Sorry, only noticed your reply now. In the VM make sure that "all Functions" is unchecked, and PCI-Express is checked, and the host is q35 machinetype. (just from memory) On my solarflare cards, the NIC processor acts as a hardware L2 switch, and i can communicate between the vf's fine...

Thank you @Neobin , i'll mark this as solved, since this issue is getting attention from developers, and it's likely it will be improved in the future.

Hello, My PVE rpool is on a small 128GB M.2 2242 SSD, and i use a enterprise U.2 SSD for everything not related to rpool. I have disabled local and local-zfs in Datacenter storage. Then i have created the corresponding storage on the datacenter SSD. However, when i upload a .ISO file, it first...

ok, seems i have manually installed sfc-dkms_4.15.14.1001-1_all.deb previously, which is solarflare driver from their homepage. apt remove --purge sfc-dkms seems to have resolved the issue i think.. EDIT: issue solved, it was manually install solarflare kernel module dkms, i had forgot about...

Yes, the cryptsetup complaints are normal. here's my complete term.log

Hello, just tried to update to 8, following the guide. after full upgrade on 7 i first ran ran apt --purge autoremove pve7to8 --full pveversion output was pve-manager/7.4-16/0f39f621 (running kernel: 6.2.16-11-bpo11-pve) and pve7to8 --full resulted in all green. at the end of the upgrade...

Again, might be solarflare specific. I had to learn everything from the Solarflare PDF. So check the Intel user guide for your card as well.

My script ofcourse is for Solarflare cards, and with those, i first have to use the solarflare sfboot utility to set my card in sr-iov / full virtualisation mode, and alse define max number of VF's per port. So i'm not familiar with the X550-T2, but first thing you should check is if there is...

edit: using Requires=network.target might be abit wrong here, i'm still working on perfecting the script. The example above does start the service at the correct time, but reading https://systemd.io/NETWORK_ONLINE/ says it really should be Before=network-pre.target and Wants=network-pre.target...

If you previous OPNsense used the physical MAC addresses of your interfaces, and you want to now use those MAC addresses on a VF instead, then what you would have to do is first save the original addresses, and then change the MAC addresses of the physical interfaces. After that you could use...

Hi. "echo 2 > ...sriov_numvfs" creates 2 VF's (virtual functions) for the interface you do it to. Those interfaces is what you then would pass through to OPNsense. Each time you partition a physical interface like that, it will be assigned a random MAC address. So you have to have the script...

Well, there's something called 9pfs, which recently got a major performance improvement https://wiki.qemu.org/Documentation/9p https://www.phoronix.com/news/QEMU-7.2-Released My main complaint is with linux overall, sure you can build something functional, but only using hours, days, weeks and...

for me as virtiofs doesn't support NUMA (VM won't start with NUMA enabled just as user lpfister9 says, it's basically useless. The Intel docs i linked to describe how to tie hugepages to a specific NUMA slot, but virtiofs don't care, and as such is useless. virtiofs is useless, and basically as...

Hello, i asked about this from a linux openzfs developer, and he says it will probably not work, and then said that he is planning to start using virtiofs himself at some point, and when he does he will take a look at DAX, and the possibility of adding openzfs support for it.

Hello, i'm about to try this, and i will read up on https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/howto-qemu.html but just wanted to ask in advance, if you actually tried enabling NUMA, and what happened? I want to use virtiofs in a VM that has NUMA enabled, and has cpu pinning because it has a GPU with pcie...

I know i'm repeating myself, but imo i think adding numactl options to simply bind a VM to a NUMA node, and to the RAM attached to that node would be an alternative more simple solution, as from what i understand the linux kernel is very good at choosing which cores to utilize automatically. I...

Well as @Dot 's patches now have been accepted, you can now try pinning your GPU passthrough VM to certain cores. The main idea is to use the cores of the CPU that the PCIE lanes are connected to. I don't know how the the AMD cpu's work, but you can install hwloc, which includes lstopo, which...

Just updated PVE and now i see CPU AFFINITY setting. Great work @Dot, congratulations.. Now about those numactl settings.. :D
