Hi,

I'm using kvm + libvirt + pci pass-through (vfio-pci) for virtualizing 
my mythtv server.

     <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='pci' managed='yes'>
       <driver name='vfio'/>
       <source>
         <address domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
       </source>
       <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x03' 
function='0x0'/>
     </hostdev>


I had no problems with my previous dvb cards at least no big known problems.

With my new dvb-s2 card (DVBSky S952 V3), the card stopped working after 
recording 1 or 2 hour.

After than the dvbstream from the card is broken and I have to reload 
the driver.

MythTV Log shows:

Apr  7 19:19:10 mythtv mythlogserver: mythbackend[2087]: E DVBRead 
recorders/dtvrecorder.cpp:855 (FindH264Keyframes) DTVRec[1]: PES start

mpeg/mpegstreamdata.cpp:364 (AssemblePSIP) 
MPEGStream[1](0x7f9bd412b898): Error: offset>181, pes length & current 
cannot be queried

On the kvm host the card works properly. With my old cards I got these 
problems sporadically, so this was not a big deal for me.
But now it is unusable.

I have tried several things, all with the same result.

* Swapping PCIe Port
* using kvm-based-passthrough instead of vfio-pci
* starting qemu direct and using bus=pcie.0 ( -device 
vfio-pci,host=01:00.0,id=hostdev0,bus=pcie.0,addr=0x3)


Board: Supermicro C2SBC-Q
dvb-s2: DVBSky S952 V3
System: Gentoo
Kernel: 3.19.0-gentoo (on both host and vm)
qemu: 2.1.2
libvirt: 1.2.10

Is there anything I can do to find and solve this problem?
Or is this simply a bad combination of hardware components and I will 
stuck here?

Thanks
Wolfgang
