Intel iGPU passthrough to macOS kvm possible?

[374802]

I recently saw the video where linus got a working macOS kvm with a intel cpu and amd gpu. I am aware that nvidia gpu is not supported.

 

My question is: because i don't have an amd gpu but an nvidia gpu is it possible to pass througn the intel igpu instead? If so, how?

I think it might be possible. I'm not sure how to do it myself, but this wiki may help.

You pass through a PCIe device, you can't do it with the iGPU. Just buy a cheap $10 AMD GPU on eBay.

will this do? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ASUS-AMD-ATI-RADEON-HD6670-2GB-GDDR3-GRAPHICS-CARD-GPU/233652988718?hash=item3666cdab2e:g:PXEAAOSwxoxfEh9f

I have a tutorial on how to perform GPU pass-through on Ubuntu using QEMU/KVM.

 

 

In theory passing through an iGPU is possible. My expectation is that internal to the CPU it is a PCIe device. That's what I'd expect. What's important is that it appear alone in its own IOMMU group. If it's bunched up with a wad of other devices it's either not possible or much harder to do (breaking apart IOMMU groups).

 

If it doesn't show up as a PCIe device it may not be possible at all. Although you can pass through devices that aren't connected directly to PCIe so the possibility is still there.
