Hi

I noticed this messages on Qubes 3.2, I don't know if they also
appeared on Qubes 3.1.

parport_pc.956: Unable to set coherent dma mask: disabling DMA
parport_pc.888: Unable to set coherent dma mask: disabling DMA
parport_pc.632: Unable to set coherent dma mask: disabling DMA


Any idea?

Regards.

I get the same exact messages on boot I noticed. and right before that during boot I get

Kernel: Error: Driver 'processor_aggregator' is already registered, aborting...

Also in journalctl I get dom0 Kernel: pnp 00:05: [dma 0 disabled]
dom0 Kernel: pnp 00:06: [dma 0 disabled]

Does this mean iommu is not working right? I don't notice any problems with qubes.

Most likely DMA handling for this particular device (whatever it is) is
incompatible with Xen. If you don't observe any negative effects,
nothing to worry about.
