RHEL 8.2 GPU Passthrough for NVidia Quadro M2000

Latest response

Is there a complete set of instructions for GPU passthrough in RHEL 8.x?

I see the instructions for RHEL 7.x: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/virtualization_deployment_and_administration_guide/sect-device-gpu.

I followed the first option as I do not have a compatible card for vGPU use. The NVidia Quadro M2000 does work with gpu passthrough. This method assigns a card to a single guest in KVM/QEMU. It does work in RHEL 7.

When I set this up in RHEL 8, I followed this: https://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=CentOS_8&p=kvm&f=12 but that didn't seem to work. Booting the VM with the GPU assigned caused the host to hang. I suspect this is caused by the GPU not being delisted in the kernel.
