https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=203874 --- Comment #15 from John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to igor from comment #14) Comment #12 explains why another hypervisor had issues with FreeBSD due to an incomplete emulation of MSI-X. However, the questions it raises can only be answered by someone who knows how VMWare's hypervisor implements passthrough and how it has changed over time. For example, on Xen we employ a workaround for the known-broken versions (and Xen has been fixed). It may be that if VMWare had a similar issue it was previously fixed as well which would explain why the quirk may not be needed on newer versions of VMWare, but someone from VMWare would have to answer that question. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
