Hey,
Our team is adding a NIC functional emulation to QEMU.
One of the features we are adding to this NIC is SRIOV.
Here is the error message I get when checking SRIOV support of our emulated
NIC on Win2016 server (the hyper-v VM).
"
SR-IOV cannot be used on this system as the PCI Express hardware does not
support Access Control Services (ACS) at any root port.
QEMU's emulated PCI Express Root Ports do not support ACS yet, however I
am not sure ACS is a prerequisite
for SR-IOV. We would need ARI support for allowing more than 8VFs, but
QEMU doesn't support that either (yet).
Knut Omag has some working patches, he successfully implemented SR-IOV
with QEMU, see:
https://github.com/knuto/qemu/tree/sriov_patches_v7
The code was not merged since we need at least a device with SR-IOV
support to justify the addition.
Contact your system vendor for further information.
"
I'm not sure what the status of emulated SR-IOV is so I have CCed
Michael Tsirkin and Marcel Apfelbaum, the PCI maintainers in QEMU.
Thanks,
Marcel
Could you please advise about what could be the issue here?
BTW: I use same configuration (VM XML file attached) when running linux VM
(RH7.2) image (instead of Win Hyper-V) over the same host and SRIOV is working
for me there.
Here the XML file I use to define the VM (our emulated NIC is added at the end
of XML):
