    Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    So I've been trying to get vga passthrough working on my 290x and have been running into trouble once I switch from my dedicated gpu to my integrated graphics. As soon as I boot off integrated graphics, the system becomes unbearably slow, to the point where even typing into a terminal is a painful affair.

    Anyone have any ideas how to fix this issue? I am guessing it might be a driver issue, but lspci shows that the i915 drivers are installed. I'm using the default radeon drivers. When I tried using pci-stub to block my dedicated gpu, I get a black screen and can't login at all unless I modify my grub config on boot.

    Here are the devices on my pc:

    My best guess... We need here the following attached: Xorg.0.log and dmesg. After your system has ran at least for an hour.

    Thank you,

    Re: Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    So here's my system currently in unbearably slow mode running off integrated graphics. Right now I don't have anything blocked in my grub.cfg but the result is the same when I block the radeon driver or pcistub the 290x.

    Here's my Xorg.0.log:

    Here's my dmesg log:

    Question Re: Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    Hello Jake,

    I am really looking into your issue, and trying to learn from it. I am looking sporadically for two days now... And collecting a minimum (I have some Xorg/DRM knowledge, but realized that I do not have far enough of it) knowledge to understand the domain and the problem. Maybe we can work together (and learn together), since I have some questions to you.

    [1] You are using older kernel -> 4.8.14. Why?

    [ 85.463] Build Operating System: 4.8.8-300.fc25.x86_64
    [ 85.463] Current Operating System: Linux FedoraDesktop 4.8.14-300.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Dec 12 16:31:04 UTC 2016 x86_64

    Why you don't upgrade system and use newest F25 4.9.13?

    [2] In your Xorg.0.log file I found the following (at the very beginning):

    Here I have another question: since I do not see in kernel command line nomodeset, and I also see that modeset driver is loaded, I have no idea why INTEL Integrated GFX i915 driver is NOT loaded? Most probably, it is blacklisted somewhere in /etc/... (and how)?

    Could you, please, explain this (since, at the end of the story your AMD GFX Radeon driver is correctly initialized and correctly running, as I got it from the log with my vague (but strengthening) knowledge)?

    So far, enough for the starters, isn't it?

    Re: Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    Thanks for the help nobody. I am wondering if perhaps you were looking at a section of the log where the kernel was older. I am currently running 4.9.13-200 but am still experiencing the issue.

    This, in RED, is your GFX pass-through. I. on another hand, do NOT have/set pass-through on my Fedora 25 Virtual Machine:
    As for passthrough, I do not have passthrough setup as of yet. I am not yet running a virtual machine, but I do have vt-d enabled and setup everything in my bios to allow me to do gpu passthrough.

    Here I have another question: since I do not see in kernel command line nomodeset, and I also see that modeset driver is loaded, I have no idea why INTEL Integrated GFX i915 driver is NOT loaded? Most probably, it is blacklisted somewhere in /etc/... (and how)?

    Could you, please, explain this (since, at the end of the story your AMD GFX Radeon driver is correctly initialized and correctly running, as I got it from the log with my vague (but strengthening) knowledge)?
    This is one of the things that I've been trying to figure out. I have never blacklisted the intel driver (that I'm aware of) so I've been trying to figure out why the intel driver does not get loaded. When I get home from work I'll try and get new logs to see if anything has changed with updates. If there's any other logs you think that would be useful, let me know and I can upload them.

    Re: Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    So the new logs look the same, I can't seem to figure out why i915 never gets loaded. I booted with
    Code:
    i915.modeset=1
    and it still doesn't seem to load. No idea why. Any suggestions or tips on how I can debug why the driver isn't loading?

    Re: Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    Here's a new xorg log, I am currently running one monitor on intel and one on my amd card. Using only the intel graphics makes the system slow again. This time it seems to load the i915 driver if I have one monitor running off each graphics card.

    http://pastebin.com/n855tDaK

    Here's the dmesg log.

    http://pastebin.com/vVzvGB1y

    This might also be useful.

    Hello Jake,

    I have some new info, not too much useful, but still... Maybe these info can help you (or somebody else).

    Let me go from your post:

    Can you tell me, how you did determine statement in RED? My best guess, you know from which GFX ports you run these monitors?!

    These info should be also in your Xorg.0.log . I, remotely, looking into your Xorg.0.log could not determine this info.

    I also noticed in the kernel command line:
    [ 24.442] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-4.9.13-200.fc25.x86_64 root=UUID=d57fbe5a-f9d4-4608-a4ec-e3de7d33e852 ro rd.luks.uuid=luks-8f98e6b6-fc4e-43e1-a35e-b5f5f0f099ec rd.luks.uuid=luks-90b5dc6b-dd59-4046-ac7d-ca73ec1be111 rhgb quiet intel_iommu=on
    Does this option: intel_iommu=on makes visible INTEL GFX driver?

    _______

    On my side, I have tried very hard to enable on my VMware Workstation 12.5.2 (HYP type 2) GFX pass-through/IOMMU (my BIOS has both VT-x and VT-d switched ON), but it is free version, and I think they disabled/blocked GFX pass-through/IOMMU on purpose.

    Then, I went to do workaround. To install on my WIN10 64 PRO VirtualBox, which I did. But then, I had tons of problems to export the whole F25 VM machine as .ovf file (don't ask, at one point in time I rewrote .vmx generation script successfully), then with such created .vmx was able to create .ovf... Anyway, after lot of problems I was able (after around 7 unsuccessful attempts) to import .ovf appliance. But... F25 VM runs seamlessly on VirtualBox, but either there I was not able to set pass-through.

    I did the last possible, out of desperation. On the same HDD I shut down WIN10, and brought real F25 on bare metal (on BIOS) - dual boot UEFI machine. Here are my logs, attached for your inspection (I also have integrated INTEL GFX and AMD Radeon on my notebook).
    _______

    Since today/tomorrow I have very limited time, I'll continue to work on this (to analyze two others of your logs).

    Re: Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    Can you tell me, how you did determine statement in RED? My best guess, you know from which GFX ports you run these monitors?!
    Yes, I've got each monitor plugged into the different card ports.

    Does this option: intel_iommu=on makes visible INTEL GFX driver?
    intel_iommu=on is what allows me to use gpu passthrough once I figure out these driver issues. Having this hasn't had any effect on whether my intel drivers load, it simply allows me to pass a gpu through to a VM.

    I did the last possible, out of desperation. On the same HDD I shut down WIN10, and brought real F25 on bare metal (on BIOS) - dual boot UEFI machine. Here are my logs, attached for your inspection (I also have integrated INTEL GFX and AMD Radeon on my notebook).
    _______

    Since today/tomorrow I have very limited time, I'll continue to work on this (to analyze two others of your logs).
    Thanks for all of your help analyzing these logs, I really appreciate it! As for my VM setup, I will probably be running my windows VM in either KVM or QEMU, but I've been trying to figure out this driver issue first.

    Re: Issues with VGA passthrough and intel graphics

    Question, what Display Manager / Desktop are you using ?

    EDIT: also, if you boot with the Intel running, and you type: modprobe i915 what happens ?
    and specifically when doing an lspci | grep 915
    can you see the following modules loaded ?
    i915
    video
    i2c_algo_bit
    drm_kms_helper
    drm

    I'm running Gnome on X11, but have had the same issues on wayland. When I get home from work I'll get the results of those commands for you.

    Can you try "lxdm" and group "Xfce Desktop" and see if it also behaves that slow ?
    I just installed FC25 with Gnome (default install) in an i915 machine, and it was so slow, the mouse would not even move.
    However I was able to recover it by changing the display manager and the desktop, thread here:

    Sure, I'll give them a shot. I'll be pretty dissappointed if that's the fix though, my machine should be more than powerful enough to handle gnome.
