If you see that there PCI devices other than ones that correspond to your graphics card, then try using a different PCI slot. Unfortunately some motherboards don't have any isolated PCI slots, in this case you are out of luck; PCI passthrough will not be possible in this method.

### Basic Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-enable-kvm
|
||||
```
|
||||
-enable-kvm
|
||||
|
||||
This enables [KVM](https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Main_Page) which improves performance and allows for *almost bare-metal* CPU performance.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-m 8G
|
||||
```
|
||||
-m 8G
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-smp 2
|
||||
```
|
||||
-smp 2
|
||||
|
||||
Allocate 2 CPU cores to the virtual machine
|
||||
|
||||
### OVMF firmware
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-drive if=pflash,format=raw,readonly=on,file=/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF.fd \
|
||||
-drive if=pflash,format=raw,file="$OVMF_VARS" \
|
||||
```
|
||||
-drive if=pflash,format=raw,readonly=on,file=/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF.fd \
|
||||
-drive if=pflash,format=raw,file="$OVMF_VARS" \
|
||||
|
||||
Most PCI cards require UEFI firmware to function properly. For this reason we will be using the OVMF firmware. You may need to install this on your system, typically the package is called ovmf, edk2-ovmf or something similar. Learn to use your package manager's search functionality to find it.

### Storage
|
||||

||||

||||
```
|
||||
-drive if=virtio,file="$ROOT",format=qcow2 \

||||
|
||||
Next you need to create a virtual disk for your virtual machine. You can create this using the following command, replacing `32G` with the desired size of this disk.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
qemu-img create -f qcow2 myVirtualDisk.qcow2 32G
|
||||
```
|
||||
qemu-img create -f qcow2 myVirtualDisk.qcow2 32G
|
||||
|
||||
In this example I use `if=virtio,` which provides better performance than the default drive type, however this will only work with linux guests which have the virtio module. **Remove this if you are using windows in your virtual machine**
|
||||
|
||||
For your first boot, you may want to add the following before your primary virtual disk:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-drive file="$ISO",media=cdrom
|
||||
```
|
||||
-drive file="$ISO",media=cdrom
|

||||
Ensure that you have set the `ISO` and `ROOT` variables appropriately with the paths to the corresponding images.

### VFIO passthrough
|
||||
|
||||
Next you need to find the pci ids for your device. Make sure you include all the relevant ones in your IOMMU group:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
-device vfio-pci,host="06:00.0" \
|
||||
-device vfio-pci,host="06:00.1" \
|
||||
-device vfio-pci,host="06:00.2" \

||||
-device vfio-pci,host="06:00.2" \
|
||||
-device vfio-pci,host="06:00.3" \

||||

||||

||||
-net nic,model=virtio -net user
|
||||

||||
I use the virtio network card, which only works for Linux guests. **If you have a windows guest, do not include this line** this will use the default network card for qemu.

usermod -a -G kvm *username*
|

|
||||
usermod -a -G kvm *username*
|
||||

||||
Next you will want to ensure that vfio devices have the correct permissions for the kvm group to use. In `/etc/udev/rules.d/10-vfio.rules`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
SUBSYSTEM=="vfio", GROUP="kvm"
|

```
|
||||
SUBSYSTEM=="vfio", GROUP="kvm"
|

|
||||
Next you will probably want to increase memory limits for users of the kvm group, to allow them to allocate potentially GB for the virtual machine. To make things easier, you might want to just set this to the maximum number of megabytes available in the system. You can find this out using `free`, for example for a system with 8GB ram, its: `8100452`

I have this bound to a hotkey using `sxhkd` so I can easily switch between inputs without having to reach over to buttons on my monitor.However you can configure this whichever way you want: for example, you can switch to the display output of your passthrough GPU when the virtual machine starts, and back when it shuts down.
