- VFIO updates for v4.10 primarily include a new Mediated Device interface, which essentially allows software defined devices to be exposed to users through VFIO. The host vendor driver providing this virtual device polices, or mediates user access to the device. These devices often incorporate portions of real devices, for instance the primary initial users of this interface expose vGPUs which allow the user to map mediated devices, or mdevs, to a portion of a physical GPU. QEMU composes these mdevs into PCI representations using the existing VFIO user API. This enables both Intel KVM-GT support, which is also expected to arrive into Linux mainline during the v4.10 merge window, as well as NVIDIA vGPU, and also Channel I/O devices (aka CCW devices) for s390 virtualization support.
