Single-GPU-passthrough-amd-nvidia

My way of doing single gpu passthrough the simplest way, I've gathered many sources together to make the perfect Single GPU passthrough guide the simplest and easiest way.

DISCLAIMER: This guide is pretty similar to many other single gpu guides, I am not trying to copy them nor take their credits, This guide is combining them all together for a better more fluid guide, this way you can use the scripts on all display-services and both amd/nvidia gpus (there might be some anomalies)

Step 1:

Go to this url https://gitlab.com/risingprismtv/single-gpu-passthrough/-/wikis/1)-Preparations
and follow steps 1-6, you could follow the rest of the guide but I believe my way is a bit more efficient and works more of the time..

Step 2:

clone my repo and and copy the hooks folder to /etc/libvirt/

cd ~/Downloads
git clone https://github.com/wabulu/Single-GPU-passthrough-amd-nvidia.git
cd Single-GPU-passthrough-amd-nvidia/{Nvidia/AMD} depends on which graphics card you have
sudo cp -r hooks/ /etc/libvirt

Step 3:

Now that the hooks folder is in the right place you are going to change the kvm.conf file to match your setup.
to do this you first need to write:

sudo lspci -nnk

It should spit out something similar to this:

you need to look for your gpu and audio pci number and change it accordingly in the kvm.conf file, for this all you have to do is write:

sudo nano /etc/libvirt/hooks/kvm.conf

(reminder: you start writing the numbers after pci_0000_{your numbers} and all dots should be replaced with _)
Now all you need to do is:
sudo systemctl restart libvirtd

Step 4:

Next we will need to make the scripts executable, you can do that with the 3 line below.

chmod +x /etc/libvirt/hooks/qemu
chmod +x /etc/libvirt/hooks/qemu.d/win10/prepare/begin/start.sh
chmod +x /etc/libvirt/hooks/qemu.d/win10/release/end/revert.sh

Step 5:

If you did everything right you can try running the vm (make sure it's named win10 otherwise make sure the folder win10 in /etc/libvirt/hooks/qemu.d is named accordingly) nvidia users might also want to go to the url mentions at step 1 and follow the rest.

If you have any problems you can join my discord server for faster response (top left) or you can mention me in your reddit post at r/VFIO with u/wabulu.
