SubjectRe: [PROBLEM] Frequently get "irq 31: nobody cared" when passing through 2x GPUs that share same pci switch via vfio

Hi Alex,

Have you had an opportunity to have a look at this a bit deeper?

We have managed to obtain a recent errata for this switch, and it
doesn't
mention any interrupt storms with nested switches. What would
I be looking for
in the errata? I cannot share our copy, sorry.



Is there anything that we can do to help?



Thanks,

Matthew
