Project mention: Help understanding KVM and its role? What is the purpose of non-KVM based VMs? | reddit.com/r/kvm | 2022-06-19
Recently I opened this issue on virtio-win repository on GitHub to track the addition of 3D acceleration through VirtIO-GPU on Windows guests, but unfortunately there is no prediction on when it will be added.

( and here: https://github.com/cbsd/cbsd/issues/663 ) I added link to https://github.com/cbsd/cbsd/issues/589#issuecomment-829615212 - this is how I configured the network in my demo. Its not linux utilities.

Project mention: Quickemu: Quickly create and run optimised Win-10,11/macOS/Linux on Linux | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-10-08So my understanding – if you run VirtualBox on macOS, and you choose macOS as Guest OS type when creating your VM, it automatically turns GetKeyFromRealSMC on. That means you are using option (2) by default. You can always switch to option (1) instead if you want to, but if you are virtualising macOS-on-macOS, there is little reason to.
From reading the VirtualBox source code [0] – it also automatically enables GetKeyFromRealSMC if it detects Apple hardware, even if the host OS isn't macOS. So, if you install Windows on your Mac, and then create a macOS VM in VirtualBox, it will automatically select option (2) as well. (I think, they actually include the code to talk to the Apple SMC in their Windows and Linux kernel drivers too.)
(Note I haven't actually tried doing this myself, this is just what I gather from the source.)

The KVM camp had something more open going, (Virgl3D, qCUDA).

Project mention: What is the iothreadpin and emulatorpin equivalent for QEMU without libvirt? | reddit.com/r/VFIO | 2021-08-22
I found qemu-pinning for CPU pinning using QEMU without libvirt. I'd like to know, if there's an equivalence for emulator and iothread pinning.
