Are you actually assigning the root ports to the qemu guest (1c.0 & 1c.6)? vfio will require they be owned by vfio-pci to make use of 3:00.0, but assigning them to the guest is not recommended. Can you provided your qemu command line? We need to re-visit how to handle pcieport devices with vfio-pci, perhaps white-listing it as a vfio "compatible" driver, but this still should not interfere with devices external to the group. The DMAR fault address looks pretty bogus unless you happen to have 100GB+ of ram in the system. > The error occurs at random and is not reproducible every time.

We could of course be passing some kind of bogus data that intel-iommu isn't catching. If you're assigning the root ports to the guest, I'd start with that, don't do it. Attach them to vfio, but don't give them to the guest. Maybe that'll give us a hint. I also notice that your USB 3 controller is dead: 03:00.0 USB controller: NEC Corporation uPD720200 USB 3.0 Host Controller (rev ff) (prog-if ff) !!! Unknown header type 7f We only see unknown header type 7f when the read from the device returns -1. This might have something to do with the root port above it (1c.6) being in state D3. Windows likes to put unused devices in D3, which leads me to suspect you are giving it to the guest. Let's see what happens without that.
