Leaving eclairvoyant's comment pinned because it contains some useful information.
Patch policy is different, but similar.
- Primary purpose of this package are the ACS override and i915 VGA arbiter patches.
- Upstream Arch patches will be applied to maintain parity with the standard kernel.
- No other patches will be added.
Package does have options that can be changed, like building with clang or disabling Arch patches.
- Defaults will match Arch packages, except when incompatible with this package's primary patches.
- Options are subject to change. Read PKGBUILD for details.
Avoid commenting and flagging at the same time for the same issue.
- Flag for common issues with standard solutions, like new releases, key changes, etc.
- Comment for issues requiring explanation or debugging.
  - Use a pastebin for blocks of text more than a few lines.

This package exists for the specific purpose of adding ported patches based on those originally created by Alex Williamson for:

Bypassing the default IOMMU grouping by overriding PCIe ACS support, and
Enabling VGA arbitration support on Intel iGPUs.

Arbitrary patches will not be added.

Refer to the wiki on PCI passthrough and this blog post on IOMMU groups for risks/caveats before using this package.

Regular AUR etiquette applies as well (knowledge of makepkg and searching the wiki/Arch forums is expected, and AUR helpers or Arch-based distros that are not Arch Linux are unsupported).

5.9.11 fixed the problem also for me. Thanks.

spamad commented on 2020-12-02 19:17 (UTC)

I was having the same issue as peterh where the IOMMU grouping stopped working at 5.9.1 (I7-3770, Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H). After compiling 5.9.11, the issue is now resolved.

An easy way to import the required gpg keys, if anyone is having problems with it as I was.

curl https://keybase.io/heftig/pgp_keys.asc | gpg --import

markzz commented on 2020-10-27 04:48 (UTC)

I can confirm there's an issue with it. I cannot get to investigating until this weekend though.

peterh commented on 2020-10-22 18:12 (UTC)

The IOMMU groups on my system (Z77, I7-3770) are broken if I'm using version linux-vfio 5.9.1.arch1-1. Any idea ?

5.9.1 is up now, but note that nvidia is only partially supported on 5.9.x; nvidia expects to have an update ready in november. this seems to only affect cuda and opencl.

https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/nvidia-driver-not-yet-supported-for-linux-kernel-5-9/157263

there are supposedly some patches available that workaround this issue; you'll need to find/apply those yourself if you need cuda/opencl on 5.9.x.

slowbro commented on 2020-09-30 18:47 (UTC)

Do you have any custom gpg configs or are you perhaps using an alternative keyring? I also am not able to reproduce the problem. Make sure your GPG keyring has all the listed signatures from your first post...

gpg --recv-keys 3B94A80E50A477C7
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/linux-vfio.git
cd linux-vfio
makepkg -si

These steps do not work for me, without helpers. Even after having a clean repo/folder.

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/linux-vfio.git

cd linux-vfio

makepkg -si

Works here. I suggest reading the pinned comment as AUR helpers are not supported.

Getting all of heftig's keys from KeyBase does not work either. Suggestion gpg --recv-keys 3B94A80E50A477C7 also does not work. What is going on here?
