Hi - sorry, I know this has been asked before but I can't seem to find a definitive solution.
Aim: to install under a Debian (probably) VM the Docker container 'Automatic Ripping Machine'.
My understanding is that for this to work I have to pass the optical drive through to the VM. But not just the drive - the controller it's attached to.
To that end I've purchased a second SATA controller and attached the optical drive to it. Here is the output for my IOMMU groups with the card in question highlighted:
As you can see it's in its own group, which I believe is required.
Here are the modules in use for the two SATA controllers:
Here is the current contents of my /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf file:
(this is to pass through a GTX1050 card, and seems to be working)
However, if I add the SATA controller as a raw PCI device (with 'All functions' ticked):
Proxmox goes unresponsive, in exactly the same way as it did when I passed the 'main' SATA controller through (which makes perfect sense because suddenly it had no disk drives)
IOMMU is enabled via the Grub config. I tried making /etc/modprobe.d/vfio.conf read:
to no avail.
I'm probably missing something obvious, but I've no idea what.
Any assistance would be welcome. It's not urgent in any way - it's purely a hobby project.
Many thanks.
PS - version 9.2.10
