https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=207447 Bug ID: 207447 Summary: Add hw.pci.honor_msi_blacklist=0 to GCE images Product: Base System Version: 10.3-BETA2 Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: wac@google.com CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org Due to the way Google Compute Engine currently populates the virtual PCI bus it presents to VMs, sys/dev/pci/pci.c's pci_msi_blacklisted() blocks use of MSI. Since there is no 0:0:0 bridge device the existing workarounds there, such as the one for qemu, won't work. Adding hw.pci.honor_msi_blacklist=0 to /boot/loader.conf on the images intended for Google Compute Engine will allow use of MSI, which is supported by the platform. Efforts are underway to make this unnecessary, but are unlikely to be complete before 10.3-RELEASE. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
