I have a stock standard Xenial KUbuntu install (no PPAs or debs) with KVM-Qemu-Libvirt (and LXC-LXD)
Currently I have kvm VMs running windows with an AMD gpu. These run successfully, no problems
I've now acquired an nVidia GPU and wish to pass it through. I need to use the new "kvm hidden" and "hyperv vendor_id" strings to ensure the nVidia drivers load successfully.
On my newer VM created on Xenial I can use the "kvm hidden" string but not the "hyperv vendor_id" string
on my VM created under trusty (and migratde to Xenial) I cannot use either string
when I check the domaincommon.rng file I find support for "kvm hidden" but not "hyperv vendor_id" which seems reasonable since the vendor_id clause was added to libvirt in version 1.3.3 and Xenial seems to have 1.3.1
How do others address this issue ... I see references to people using these clauses on Xenial. Are you installing newer versions of qemu and libvirt via PPAs .... or have I missed something ? :)
thanks for your help
