The answer to that question is always "When it's done."
Also, seeing as this PKGBUILD is on 4.18.4 right now tells you something about your question...

The answer to that question is always "When it's done."
Also, seeing as this PKGBUILD is on 4.18.4 right now tells you something about your question...
Is the patch available to 4.18.*? If it isn't, how long do you think it'll be until it's updated?
jugs: Usually that's the case, but this time I'm just being slow.
Does the patch not work on 4.18?
Looks like recompiling this package did the trick for me.
I'm having problems with nvidia-dkms and this package:
==> dkms install nvidia/396.24 -k 4.17.3-1-vfio Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 4.17.3-1-vfio (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/396.24/build/make.log for more information.
I'm not sure when the problems started happening, but it's probably started within the last week. Anyone else having issues with nvidia drivers failing to install for this kernel lately?
I'm trying to get operational again by trying combinations of different kernel and nvidia versions. Still no luck yet.
DocMAX: That line appears to be doing a job. Removing it would make me feel uneasy and without further information, I will not remove it.
You are free to do so when you build it though. The details of that reddit post also show that the person was using an Atom/Pentium/Celeron with a possible ACS cap and that line should absolutely not be removed.
If you want to discuss it with me further, I'd recommend turning to email and contacting me directly, especially if you have more information that will change my mind.
Could you remove the line described here?:
I'll add it soon then.

This package exists for the specific purpose of adding ported patches based on those originally created by Alex Williamson for:
Bypassing the default IOMMU grouping by overriding PCIe ACS support, and
Enabling VGA arbitration support on Intel iGPUs.
Arbitrary patches will not be added.
Refer to the wiki on PCI passthrough and this blog post on IOMMU groups for risks/caveats before using this package.
Regular AUR etiquette applies as well (knowledge of
makepkg
and searching the wiki/Arch forums is expected, and AUR helpers or Arch-based distros that are not Arch Linux are unsupported).
