Description of problem: Using virt manager to set up a PCI passthrough to a virtual machine. Virtual machine will not start due to the following message: Error starting domain: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: char device redirected to /dev/pts/0 PCI region 0 at address 0xf2828000 has size 0x400, which is not a multiple of 4K. You might experience some performance hit due to that. No IOMMU found. Unable to assign device "hostdev0" qemu-kvm: -device pci-assign,host=00:1a.0,id=hostdev0,configfd=48,bus=pci.0,addr=0x6: Device 'pci-assign' could not be initialized The PCI device in question is a USB controller. I've turned off selinux in case that was causing a problem. I've also disabled dropping privs and made it run as root in the qemu config. I booted with nousb set, so that the host's usb would not claim the device in question, I also checked the BIOS settings were correct: dmesg | grep -e DMAR -e IOMMU [ 0.000000] ACPI: DMAR 00000000bb781000 000B8 (v01 INTEL CP_DALE 00000001 INTL 00000001) [ 0.000000] Intel-IOMMU: enabled [ 0.036715] DMAR: Host address width 36 [ 0.036717] DMAR: DRHD base: 0x000000fed90000 flags: 0x0 [ 0.036724] IOMMU 0: reg_base_addr fed90000 ver 1:0 cap c9008020e30272 ecap 1000 [ 0.036726] DMAR: DRHD base: 0x000000fed91000 flags: 0x0 [ 0.036731] IOMMU 1: reg_base_addr fed91000 ver 1:0 cap c0000020230272 ecap 1000 [ 0.036734] DMAR: DRHD base: 0x000000fed93000 flags: 0x1 [ 0.036739] IOMMU 2: reg_base_addr fed93000 ver 1:0 cap c9008020630272 ecap 1000 [ 0.036741] DMAR: RMRR base: 0x000000bb6e9000 end: 0x000000bb6fffff [ 0.036743] DMAR: RMRR base: 0x000000bdc00000 end: 0x000000bfffffff [ 0.036745] DMAR: No ATSR found I'm not sure what an ATSR is, so I'm not sure if that is significant or not.

Sorry for not addressing this bug, but F14 is EOL now, so I'm closing this report. Please reopen if this is still relevant in a more recent fedora.
