    It’d be great of this meant SR-IOV for all GPUs, but this seems like it only allows for sharing of a GPU to multiple guests. And even then, with most of the driver being on the GPU this might not help regular consumer GPUs at all (features being disabled in firmware). But I really don’t know anything about what this actually means.

      It means you can split your GPU into multiple vGPUs and pass them through to Virtual machines I believe. Similar to what we do with cpu
