[vfio-users] How to make use of UPT mode GPU

[Daimon Wang]

 ok, I remember someone told me it'll just magically work.
I found "Optimus" yesterday, but that seems only support GF serial.I'm currently use VNC + headless NV on linux, learn from VirtualGL | Documentation / Headless nVidia Mini How-To

BTW, is there any way to set the NV card as the primary VGA instead of QXL? So console will be also on NV card.

Windows 10.  Technically the igd-assign document and the idea of UPT is
specific to Intel IGD, but Quadro cards work similarly to UPT mode.
IME only Windows 10 will take advantage of the assigned GPU to render
into the emulated graphics, but performance will take a large hit.
Thanks,
