Re: [Xen-devel] GPU passthrough

[Alex Merritt <merritt.alex@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg,

What are you intending to use the GPU for? Graphics or non-graphical
computations?

I was able to pass a GPU through to an HVM guest (not
para-virtualized). I have not tested graphics, but was able to
successfully run CUDA programs.
