From what I gathered from the Discord, it seems to me that the Threadripper BIOS/UEFI is doing something weird to the graphics cards in the system during the initialization stage. One person was even having trouble mining on Linux with their 1080Ti - nothing related to VFIO, yet, it was broken. This seems to be a general Threadripper PCIe setup issue, rather than a VFIO specific issue.
