VMware KB: Requirements to use a large Memory Mapped I/O PCI BARs on vSphere. vSphere 6.0 supports some PCI devices with large (64-bit) Base Address Registers (BARs) and/or MMIO regions larger than 1 GB. You can now edit the .vmx file of the VM attached to the PCI device to allow 64 bit BAR’s. Thanks. Chelsea, PCIPassthru: 02:00.0 : Device BAR 4 requested 64-bit memory address that exceeded MPN type BIOS SuperMicro is having option: Memory Mapped I/O above 4GB == Enabled. I can`t change this option to Disable, Tesla will not work (no POST message in BIOS, Insufficient PCI Resources ).
large, multi-gigabyte memory – mapped I/O (MMIO) device memory regions to transfer data between the host and the device. For example, the NVIDIA Tesla P100 PCI MMIO space is slightly larger than 16GB. To enable use of such devices, Above -4G mapping/ encoding in the host BIOS should be enabled. Steps to enable this depend on server manufacturer.
6/29/2017 · If PCI 64-bit Resource Allocation is enabled, memory mapped I/O can use memory addresses above the 4GB range because the 32-bit address limit is 4GB (2 to the power of 32). So if it is disabled, the PCI memory mapped IO will use a 32-bit address ( memory address 4GB and below). Presumably the MM in MM Config Base stands for Memory map.

RE: Enabling Memory Mapped IO > 4GB has issues on R720 has anyone WA this issue? i’m working with R720 servers, BIOS (version 2.5.4) is configured to SR-IOV enabled and MMIO above 4G, when enableing SR-IOV for memory hungry devices (large PCI BARs for PF and VFs) i’m getting the following in.

4/4/2016 · Hi Jeremy, The Hypervisor and VM settings appear correct, but just to eliminate one potential issue can you change this BIOS Setting Memory Mapped I/O above 4gb = Enabled to Disabled and retest please. Thanks, 12/12/2020 · I have a Dell R720 with a K1 board in it that I am testing out vDGA in Vmware View 6. My K1 will only give me one of 2 options, either assign all GPUs to PCIe passthrough or none. Not sure if that is the way it is or not. However my problem lies in that when I assign the PCIe passthrough video cards to a VM, the first one will boot fine, and all subsequent VMs will refuse to start and display …
