That's an important piece of information. What about the experiment of
using the ROM from one of the working cards, or at least verifying that
the ROMs we're seeing on the second root bridge are valid? Are there
any invalid ROM messages in dmesg? You can extract the ROM with:
echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/rom
cat /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/rom > GTX970.rom
echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:00.0/rom
Then you can use a <rom file=.../> option in your XML using the same
ROM for all the cards. I'm mostly just grasping that these emulation
failure issues often seem to occur during ROM execution so there must
be some difference in the ROM itself. The problem may actually be that
the host system doesn't support VGA routing to the second root bridge
and you may have no choice but to drop VGA and use OVMF for this
configuration. Thanks,
Alex
