Public bug reported:

This bug exists to track the basic support to NVLink2 passthrough on
Ubuntu 18.04 - for the guest side only. There's a relative small
patchset that I'm going to send to Canonical Kernel Team using this
buglink.

On the host side we'll be running a custom version of Ubuntu 18.04
(kernel + qemu). However on the guest side it will be *very important*
for clients to simply download the Ubuntu 18.04 from Canonical's website
and have the NVLink2 working out of the box.

For that, we have worked on a small patchset using only upstream patches
without changing beyond our area.

As soon as I send the patchset to the mailing list I'll update this bug
with a link to that message.

Thank you very much,

Jose R. Ziviani
