Here you can see that I choose the V5_4 profile of the vGPU. We denote it as GVT_GUID and we can create a virtual GPU with this uuid by echo $ | sudo tee mdev_supported_types/i915-GVTg_V5_4/create
If you want to generate multiple uuids, you can use the tool uuid( uuid -n 3 for generating 3 uuids). vGPU typesįirst we need to generate a uuid for the virtual GPU. The output would be like i915-GVTg_Vx_y where x represents the generation of your physical iGPU and y represents different profiles of virtual GPU. In this directory there should be a mdev_supported_types folder which contains the types of vGPU that is supported by your physical iGPU. Note that previously we have checked that my Intel UHD 620’s pci address is 00:02.0. Go to the device directory in /sys cd /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:00:02.0 Now we have to check whether GVT-G is working.

Then you should update the bootloader via sudo update-grub.Įnable related kernel modules: create a file called /etc/modules-load.d/nf and place the following content in it kvmgtĪfter these settings are done, reboot your machine to allow them to take effect. Additional parameters, such as i915.enable_guc=0 and i915.enable_fbc=0 would also be added for better performance. Please refer to previous posts about setting up KVMs.Īdd kernel parameter i915.enable_gvt=1 to your /etc/default/grub file, to the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX. qemu at least 4.0.0 and you can verify it by qemu-system-x86_64 -version.Įnable IOMMU.
For NVIDIA GPU, you can use prime-select intel to make sure the Intel iGPU is chosen. You have to disable that GPU and make sure the Inte iGPU is the primary one otherwise you might run into various problems. NOTE: If you’re using a hybrid laptop, which means there’s also another dedicated AMD/NVIDIA GPU. The 00:02.0 is the PCI address on my host machine for the Intel UHD 620. On my machine the output looks like 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 620 (Whiskey Lake) (rev 02) Also we will need its PCI address which can be found via lspci tool. If you have multiple virtual guest VMs that want you use this feature concurrently, you’ll have to create multiple virtual GPUs on the host machine. You will have to create a virtual GPU on the host machine and the guest machine will see it as a “regular” GPU.

If the full device passthrough is what you want, then you can check Intel GVT-d. There is also similar technology available for AMD’s GPUs. This is a similar technology to NVIDIA’s vgpu which is only available for some high-end professional cards even through there is a software unlock for the consumer grade GPUs. Intel GVT-g is a mediated passthrough so that the host and the guest VMs can share the intel iGPU without full device passthrough.
