bhyve pci passthrough about cbsd HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @olevole. I checked the ~cbsd/var/db/local.sqlite and the bhyveppt table is there and the attached pci passthrough is also in the table. Sorry, I was looking previous in the ~cbsd/vm/test/local.sqlite. Thanks @olevole, still learning.

This command just applies the entry in the SQLite3 database, to check:

sqlite3 ~cbsd/var/db/local.sqlite "SELECT * FROM bhyveppt"

You need to start VM to have an effect.

Hi olevole. I got an error "Error: in prepare, no such table: bhyveppt". This time I noticed a warning when I start the vm that pci passthrough required '-S' options so I follow the instruction:
cbsd bset bhyve_wire_memory=1 jname=test

Restart the vm. still got the same error no such table for the bhyveppt so I start looking at other tables and found the ppt passthrough in the "pcibuis" table instead.

All good. pci passthrough is working again.

thanks oleolvle.

@chil037 I'm wondering why you don't have a 'bhyveppt' table in main database: https://github.com/cbsd/cbsd/blob/v14.0.6/sudoexec/initenv#L870

Can you do this manually and check if the table exists?

/usr/local/bin/cbsd /usr/local/cbsd/misc/updatesql ~cbsd/var/db/local.sqlite /usr/local/cbsd/share/local-bhyveppt.schema bhyveppt

e.g.:

sqlite3 ~cbsd/var/db/local.sqlite ".tables bhyveppt"
