PVE 8.1.3 host on a Minisforum UM780 XTX (AMD Ryzen 7 7840HS w/ Radeon 780M Graphics) with a fairly standard iGPU passthrough setup. The guest is Manjaro/KDE w/ BIOS OVMF, Display none, Machine q35, hostpci 0000:c5:00.0,pcie=1 (+ rombar and all functions). If I enable Display SPICE and disable hostpci then the guest VM works fine, but when enabling the iGPU PCI Device I get this kernel crash which forces the host machine to reboot. I've seen lots of errors trying to get iGPU passthrough to work on 1/2 dozen machines now but I've never seen a total kernel crash like this before... any suggestions?

Just to be clear, when I add a PCI Device for the iGPU and start this Linux based guest VM, the HOST kernel crashes and takes down all VM/CTs. If this VM has autostart turned on, then it's just an endless cycle of death. When I remove that PCI Device and just rely on SPICE then all is well. Here are the related settings for this VM that work okay without the PCI Device...

I have Minisforum bd770i motherboard with onboard CPU AMD Ryzen 7745hx and iGPU 610. I tried 5 guides already. So far non of them work (some old ones break configurations of Proxmox 8.1 and Debian). I managed to switch drivers, softdep modules, apply noreset and vbios patches.

Without passthrough VM works on generic drivers in OS. If I put PCI device to VM config - host pc reboot. If I put PCI device and add a number of options like romfile, I get config error in logs and VM start in without PCI device.

So far I can't find a pill for this issue. May be external GPU (connected to PCI-E slot or some kind of Oculink option) will work, but so far I don't have one and my nas case don't provide any option.

So you have a similar CPU and iGPU and couldn't get it to work either. That's not very encouraging. There seems to be some extra IOMMU and SRV-IO in the 6.8 kernel so hopefully Proxmox will release an update or patched kernel soon and we can try yet again. I'm not sure of the practical difference between full iGPU passthrough and SRV-IO because I've never managed to get either one to work on any minipc/nas hardware in the last 3 years but maybe SRV-IO is an acceptable solution. I just want decent gfx performance for a desktop VM as a daily driver.
 
Did you just pass through the graphics card? I also have the same problem with the same device, but when I pass through the graphics card alone, it is normal, but when I pass through the sound card, the host crashes. Later, I found that when the sound card was directly connected to 0000:c5:00.1, it was also connected to 0000:c5:00.5, and everything was normal.
You can refer here, https://github.com/isc30/ryzen-7000-series-proxmox/issues/16
Sorry, my English is not good, I used Google Translate.
 
I was successful with passthrough.
I activate IOMMU in bios. Add parameter " iommu=pt" to grub. Make softdep for vfio-pci without blacklisting gpu drivers. Additionally you have to passthrough audio device that connected with hdmi. In my case 07:00.0 - gpu, 07:00.1 - audio device. as result you have vm connected to both devices. In addition you have to dump bios from igpu and use custom amdgopbios.bin for audio device, because without it gpu and audio don't initialise on vm. This step is essential, without this VM's with UEFI boot don't init iGPU.
In lspci active module should be vfio-pci and amdgpu as kernel module. without this than If you start VM you host will restart.

One final touch - you have to use full version of adrenaline drivers (about 700mb), because autodetect option (about 46 mb) report that no and hardware detected, and don't install.

Small problem while using iGPU passthrough. AMD gpu all have issue to detach from VM, if you restart igpu will not start and you get error 43 in windows. I tried host vm reset service and host reset service. Sometimes it reset ok, but in most cases I have to restart host.

If you plan to do a small gaming, than you have to install sunshine streaming or parsec. Only caveat that 610M don't support many hardware encoding options (no HEVC, no AV1, no HDR) and as result to stream you have to use wider bandwidth and higher bitrate. I propose to adjust bandwidth that to max out and 60fps.

I don't install jellyfish as external encoding service. So if you try it, write about your result.
