Qubes OS summit 2022

GPU Virtual Machine (GVM)
2022-09-09, 14:40–15:10 (Europe/Berlin), Main Room

GVM is a GPU Virtual Machine built by the OpenMdev Project for IOMMU-capable computers such as x86 and ARM.


In this talk OpenMdev developers Arthur Rasmusson and Michael Buchel plan to give an overview of GPU Virtual Machine (GVM) and how it works to allow virtual machine guests to run unmodified GPU drivers (non-paravirtual) on ordinary GPUs such as those in laptops, desktops, embedded devices, and servers. We’d also like to take some time to talk about ongoing efforts to improve support for devices and areas of collaboration where we might best provide support to QubesOS for integrating OpenMdev tools like GVM for enhanced GPU virtualization.

Arthur Rasmusson is member of the OpenMdev project as well as co-founder of Arc Compute, a GPU virtualization software company and high performance cloud provider based in Toronto Ontario Canada.
