Public bug reported: I haven't yet tested the version of kernel 4.10 that is being supplied with Zesty, so what I am requesting may already be present. But if not already present, please consider the following:
Please enable CONFIG_DRM_I915_GVT and CONFIG_DRM_I915_GVT_KVMGT in ".config", which depends on CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV and CONFIG_VFIO_MDEV_DEVICE. Enabling the above should allow using Intel's KVMGT (iGVT-g for KVM) without need for compiling a custom kernel. More information regarding Intel's KVMGT (iGVT-g for KVM) can be found here: https://github.com/01org/gvt-linux/wiki/GVTg_Setup_Guide#32-build-kernel And here: https://01.org/sites/default/files/documentation/gvt_flyer_final.pdf ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: zesty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1674271 Title: [Feature Request] Compile kernel 4.10 with KVMGT support Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I haven't yet tested the version of kernel 4.10 that is being supplied with Zesty, so what I am requesting may already be present.
