Yeah, some real quirk notice would be nice. I've hunted down the gen4 errata sheets, but there's nothing in there about the gfx not working for dmar. Hence I'm opting for a working gpu in case of doubts. Also note that according to intel docs only the gm45 and g45 have vt-d support. So with this bug report we have them all covered. I've still left all the other gen4 ids in the quirk tables, just in case intel marketing materials win another round against me. Instead amended the commit message a bit. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch
