Multiple GPU Assignments to a Single Hyper-V VM with DDA

The aforementioned issues were successfully resolved by configuring MMIO space, as outlined in the official Microsoft document: [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/plan/plan-for-deploying-devices-using-discrete-device-assignment#mmio-space]

GPUs, particularly, require additional MMIO space for the VM to access the memory of that device. While each VM starts with 128 MB of low MMIO space and 512 MB of high MMIO space by default, certain devices or multiple devices may require more space, potentially exceeding these values.

Subsequently, I reconfigured the VM following the instructions in the Microsoft Official Document: [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/deploy/deploying-graphics-devices-using-dda#vm-preparation-for-graphics-devices]

Solution :

- Enabled Write-Combining on the CPU using the cmdlet:

Set-VM -GuestControlledCacheTypes $true -VMName VMName

- Configured the 32-bit MMIO space with the cmdlet:

Set-VM -LowMemoryMappedIoSpace 3Gb -VMName VMName

- Configured greater than 32-bit MMIO space with the cmdlet:

Set-VM -HighMemoryMappedIoSpace 33280Mb -VMName VMName

Dismount the GPUs

To dismount the GPU devices from the host:
- Located the device's location path
- Copied the device's location path
- Disabled the GPU in Device Manager

Dismounted the GPU devices from the host partition using the cmdlet:

Dismount-VMHostAssignableDevice -Force -LocationPath $locationPath1

Dismount-VMHostAssignableDevice -Force -LocationPath $locationPath2

Assigned the GPU devices to the VM using the cmdlet:

Add-VMAssignableDevice -LocationPath $locationPath1 -VMName VMName

Add-VMAssignableDevice -LocationPath $locationPath2 -VMName VMName

The configuration of the VM for DDA has been successfully completed.

Both GPUs are now recognized in my Linux Hyper-V VM:
