Hi Stephen,
> Will this work in guest? or only on bare metal?
VFIO is Linux-only, and in theory will be able to work on the guest, but not at the moment, since it requires IOMMU. There was a GSoC proposal for KVM to do IOMMU implementation, and there were a few AMD IOMMU-emulation patches floating around the KVM lists for some time, but nothing has made it into release yet.
Best regards,
Anatoly Burakov
DPDK SW Engineer
