Alex, thanks for you response. I tried to create guest with multiple root ports, but qemu report error: # qemu-system-x86_64 --accel kvm -m 4096 -smp 4 -drive file=/home/hao/rhel8.2.qcow2,if=none,id=virtio-disk0 -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=virtio-disk0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=nic0,mac=00:16:3e:0d:e4:ab -netdev tap,id=nic0,br=virbr0,helper=/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper -cpu host -machine q35 -device pcie-root-port,id=root1 -device pcie-root-port,id=root2 -daemonize qemu-system-x86_64: -device pcie-root-port,id=root2: Can't add chassis slot, error -16
Is the command wrong? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1921444 Title: Q35 doesn't support to hot add the 2nd PCIe device to KVM guest Status in QEMU: New Bug description: KVM: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm.git branch: next, commit: 4a98623d Qemu: https://git.qemu.org/git/qemu.git branch: master, commit: 9e2e9fe3 Created a KVM guest with Q35 chipset, and try to hot add 2 PCIe device to guest with qemu internal command device_add, the 1st device can be added successfully, but the 2nd device failed to hot add. If guest chipset is legacy i440fx, the 2 device can be added successfully. 1. Enable VT-d in BIOS 2. load KVM modules in Linux OS: modprobe kvm; modprobe kvm_intel 3.
