Patching kernel both ways (via patch and xen.xml) doesn’t help, so will continue to research this separate issue.

Quick howto: GPU passthrough with lots of RAM

Users in this community have had a difficult time with GPU passthrough over the years. I want to share a quick recipe for how I got mine working.

However, like others, I couldn’t run the GPU VM with more than a few GB of memory. The trick was to set the max-ram-below-4g variable to 2G instead of 3.5G. I now have a VM with a 409…
