I can confirm that the patch at the end of this email gives me this: $ ls /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/mdev_supported_types/ i915-GVTg_V4_2 i915-GVTg_V4_4 i915-GVTg_V4_8 And after an "echo $uuid | sudo /sys/[...]/i915-GVTg_V4_2/create" I get a new virtual card in /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/$uuid. Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck with using this feature in practice. I start qemu-system-x86_64 with: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -device vfio-pci,sysfsdev=/sys/[...]/$uuid/ \ -vga qxl -display gtk,gl=on And indeed the Windows guest shows me an Intel 5500 card but after installing the drivers I constantly get a bluescreen immediately after boot. Neither Windows 7, 8.1 or 10 worked. In Windows 10 the bluescreen shows a "video tdr failure". On my host system I get spammed with dmesg output like: [Wed Mar 20 04:19:07 2019] vfio_pin_page_external: Task qemu-system-x86 (28656) RLIMIT_MEMLOCK (16777216) exceeded [Wed Mar 20 04:19:07 2019] gvt: vgpu 1: vfio_pin_pages failed for gfn 0x4359e, ret -12 [Wed Mar 20 04:19:07 2019] gvt: vgpu 1: fail: spt 0000000030299d2a guest entry 0x4359e007 type 1 [Wed Mar 20 04:19:07 2019] gvt: vgpu 1: fail: shadow page 0000000030299d2a guest entry 0x4359e007 type 1.

I don't know if these problems are due to my hardware or due to qemu or due to my Windows guests but maybe it would make sense to see this setup working in practice before enabling the respective kernel options? Somebody on Arch Linux claims it's working: https://www.reddit.com/r/VFIO/comments/8h352p This bug should probably be assigned to src:linux instead of src:linux-signed-amd64 as only the former contains the kernel sources.
