It is reproducible. And id seems not to be a problem of binding /
unbinding, but the fact of not starting it as root user seems to be the
problem.

I never saw these problems with a root VM (and root does have the same
value for ulimit -l).

- Is it possible to run the VM / VFIO in user context?
- What size should be used for ulimit -l?


Thanks,
Andreas
