Virtio-nvgpu brings near-native Nvidia GPU performance to KVM guests

Original: Virtio-nvgpu: Near-native Nvidia GPU access inside a KVM guest

A new open-source project called virtio-nvgpu promises near-native Nvidia GPU access inside KVM virtual machines, potentially removing a long-standing bottleneck for Linux virtualisation. By exposing the GPU more directly to guests, it could benefit developers running GPU workloads, machine learning jobs and graphics applications in VMs. The project has drawn attention on developer forums, where commenters are weighing its performance claims against existing options like GPU passthrough.

Why now: Faster Nvidia GPU access in virtual machines is a significant technical development for Linux users and developers.
