Hello, I'm Vix.
Hello, this is a detailed tutorial on how to setup a PCI passthrough on a KVM/QEMU virtualmachine, in this tutorial I will be breaking down things and explaining them in detail so you get some basic knowdedge on what you are doing.
So first, I will list the requirements for this; You need at least 1 display cable, I suggest 2 so you can switch between the guest virtual machine display and your host. This is all done on linux, you are expected to have a Vt-x and IOMMU compatible system. IOMMU stands for "Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O" which is a must have for this tutorial. Vt-x stands for intel virtualization technology. Vt-x allows one hardware platform to function as multiple platforms, while Vt-d improves security and reliability of the systems and also improves performance lf I/O devices in virtual machines.
So first of, we must ensure that our CPU supports IOMMU and virtualization technology, I will be covering intel in this video only, however amd is similar. To check if your CPU is
