Grimes from comment #13) Given that (a) there is absolutely no definitive background as to why the h= ack, pardon me, "quirk" was inserted in in the first place, (b) utter disinteres= t in getting to the bottom of the hack from the kernel "folk," and (c) existence= of viable alternatives, we can safely say that the hack these patches were try= ing to revert was a tombstone on FreeBSD as a passthrough guest---I, for one, j= ust like in bug #178795, have moved onto Linux when I need passthrough; and I d= oubt we were the only two. Now, given that I do like FreeBSD, I am quite happy to spin up an ESXi box = and try whatever. Incidentally, comment #12 doesn't explain why de-quirking worked fine, or w= hy Linux/Windows guests are unaffected. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
