Hello guys,

this drives me insane. I am trying to pass romfile of my GPU for UEFI boot 

This is an error I am getting :

[root@brutus-coreos opt]# virsh start winos1

error: Failed to start domain winos1

error: internal error: early end of file from monitor: possible problem:

2016-02-07T16:56:09.358285Z qemu-system-x86_64: -device vfio-pci,host=01:00.0,id=hostdev0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x6,romfile=/opt/MSI.R9380.4096.150713.rom: failed to find romfile "/opt/MSI.R9380.4096.150713.

Do you have selinux or apparmor enabled. If so maybe look in their audit logs to see if a violation was recorded (or temporarily disable them to see if the operation succeeds).

Also, (and this is even more of a long shot than the other suggestion) did you cut off the end of the error message? Or did it really not print out the "rom" at the end? Perhaps there is something strange with qemu's commandline parser for the romfile name? Try naming it something simple, like "xyzzy".

The file is there , even owned by qemu

[root@brutus-coreos opt]# cd /opt

[root@brutus-coreos opt]# ls -lsa

total 136

128 -rw-rw-r--.  1 qemu qemu 131072 Feb  7 17:53 MSI.R9380.4096.150713.rom

I have tried to put it into /var/lib/libvirt/images or /usr/share/qemu , but it ends with the same error.
