Description Martin Tessun 2017-08-04 12:17:41 UTC

Support for vGPU / GVT-G display in a VM for remote display.

Implementation details:
SPICE will probably need to optimize some things for responsiveness (keyboard-/mouse interactions).
Besides this, this is probably a streaming task (Encoding with GPU capabilities, e.g. H265 or VP10).

Note that this is going to be blocked by licencing and certification for nvidia-streaming-agent. Also if I'm not mistaken only h.264 and h.265 will be supported natively.

Does that mean , with vGPU/GVT-G, desktop stream will be captured and encoded ,then forward the resulting stream to the host to be sent through SPICE?

RFE is moving to rhel 8, where it will be triaged and prioritized
