https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D282258 Bug ID: 282258 Summary: sysutils/vm-bhyve Patch to use significantly more PCI devices in a VM guest Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: arne@Steinkamm.COM CC: churchers@gmail.com Flags: maintainer-feedback?(churchers@gmail.com) CC: churchers@gmail.com Created attachment 254430 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D254430&action= =3Dedit Patch to distribute devices on multiple guest PCI buses The Bhyve wrapper vm-bhyve only distributes devices on PCI bus 0 even though bhyve supports multiple PCI buses. This limits the number of virtual devices a VM can use. In my use case it was necessary to create a VM with significantly more than= 200 vtnet(4) devices. The attached patch allows virtual devices to be distributed across multiple= PCI buses, thus multiplying the number of devices that can be used in a VM.
