Are you trying to run as root or a normal user? If the latter, you need to play with ulimits to increase the size. > The WLAN card in the VM doesn't work any more.

Do I recall correctly you reporting a message about the device not supporting reset for the WLAN?` Unfortunately devices are mostly black boxes as far as VFIO is concerned, so if the device doesn't support reset and doesn't have it's own device specific reset and doesn't simply start behaving when we restore config space, there's little for vfio to do. We do have a bit more flexibility in performing a secondary bus reset on the bridge since we own everything below the bridge. We probably need to consider adding a group reset ioctl to take advantage of that. > I'll see if it is reproducible. I had to reboot to get it working again. I'm definitely curious if there's anything cumulative about the locked memory problem above.
