  Though note that basically everything except the upcoming AMD Big Navi GPUs suffers from the AMD GPU Reset bug, so unless vendor-reset happens to work well for your GPU, you will have to power-cycle the host in between boots of guests that use your AMD card. (And Big Navi GPUs aren't supported by macOS yet anyway)

  For AMD gpu’s, vender-reset can be used. Here’s an example of what works with proxmox: https://www.nicksherlock.com/2020/11/working-around-the-amd-gpu-reset-bug-on-proxmox/

  However, there's also a very good solution for older cards, it just requires an additional kernel module, which will reset the card correctly: https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset

  It's weird that you're not having any issues, AMD fixed the reset bug for Big Navi cards (e.g. RX 6800, 6900), but not for older ones: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/jehkey/will_big_navi_support_function_level_reset_flr/gcqdtt2/ However, there's also a very good solution for older cards, it just requires an additional kernel module, which will reset the card correctly: https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset

  One previous large downside of KVM vs dual booting a bare metal hack was the AMD "reset bug", which prevented you from restarting the VM, and negated some of the convenience of KVM. This has been largely remedied recently (vendor-reset), and is fixed outright in the 6000 series GPUs.

  Sapphire RX570 would almost certainly be affected by the "reset bug". I say almost, because if you start researching you will find there is plenty of confusion surrounding what is/isn't the reset bug. I think there is a good chance that the vendor-reset module would work for your card, though, since there is a similar amount of contradicting/confounding info regarding cards that are/are not resetting. For example, I thought for sure my 5700 XT was not resetting even with the module, but sure enough it was a windows driver issue on my end (https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset/issues/3). Here is one report of someone who may have gotten a Sapphire RX 570 working: https://forum.level1techs.com/t/amd-polaris-vega-navi-reset-project-vendor-reset/163801/49 (I would bet money, if it is indeed working for them on linux and win10 but *apparently* not on mac, that it is likely an issue on their end rather and with the card or vendor-reset module).

  AFAICT, this is misinformation. Judging by: https://github.com/gnif/vendor-reset#supported-devices ... and my own experience with a polaris card.
