Hi, I am trying to setup intel gpu transcoding, cpu is 9700K, but cannot even see the /dev/dri device on the host
I do not have any /dev/dri device on the host...

Code: 
ls -l /dev/dri
ls: cannot access '/dev/dri': No such file or directory


Code: 
lsmod | grep i915
i915                 2306048  0
drm_kms_helper        245760  1 i915
cec                    53248  2 drm_kms_helper,i915

Have you enabled Intel graphics and disabled IOMMU in the BIOS?

Intel graphics is enabled in BIOS.

I am not sure I can disable IOMMU with my BIOS? Can you explain further please?

My motherboard is
Code: 
gigabyte aorus z390 ultra

As above in my kernel commands, I enable iommu in order to do GPU passthrough of my AMD Vega 64
 
I had to disable IOMMU in BIOS on my machine to get /dev/dri on the host but I am not doing pass through of Intel graphics. I use Intel graphics in a container.

The same. I am not doing passthrough of the Intel GPU. I only passthrough the AMD GPU.

So how do you disable IOMMU in BIOS?
 
I have my DVT set to 512MB does that make any difference? Still cannot find IOMMU in BIOS
 
Is this the problem?

Code: 
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation CoffeeLake-S GT2 [UHD Graphics 630] (rev 02)
    DeviceName: Onboard - Video
    Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd UHD Graphics 630 (Desktop 9 Series)
    Kernel driver in use: vfio-pci
    Kernel modules: i915

How do I get the i915 driver to load instead of the vfio-pci?
