Qubes OS version:

R4.0rc5

Affected component(s):


Steps to reproduce the behavior:

run qvm-pci attach <vmname> <backend>:<bdf>, I've tried every combination with permissive and no-strict-reset option.

Expected behavior:

VM(especially sys-net) is attached to the adapter so I can make the wifi work.

Actual behavior:

System freeze immediately when attach to a running VM or the VM attached to the adapter start, then shutdown after a few seconds.

General notes:

The system-freeze will happen in the setup step so I have to detach the adapter from the sys-net to finish installation.
Some one suggested to use sudo xl pci-attach <vmname> <bdf> to attach the adapter directly to a VM, the command seemed to work, but qvm-pci shows that the adapter is still not used by any VM, and the network manager didn't show any wifi device.
