    Hrm, something of a lack of discussion about what level of access the card has to the host in the absence of IOMMU-restricted passthrough.

    Why not use normal GPU passthrough? I don't see how you can use this to share a GPU between multiple VMs, so what is the benefit of using this software over normal GPU passthrough with vfio-pci drivers?

    Amazing project! But man, that README is just a textbook example of LLM word salad. It's wild how these tools are so incredibly capable at many things, but their writing sticks out like a sore thumb

    How is this different than gVisor's nvproxy? https://gvisor.dev/docs/user_guide/gpu/#compatibilityEdit: nvproxy is mentioned as the "direct inspiration" in the readme without mention of how this is different or why it doesn't use nvproxy as a backend.

    Does it work under OpenStack?

    What are the isolation implications?

    Can this be used with a Windows guest?
