> Instead, we burned months trying (and ultimately failing) to get Nvidia’s host drivers working to map virtualized GPUs into Intel Cloud Hypervisor. At one point, we hex-edited the closed-source drivers to trick them into thinking our hypervisor was QEMU.

What do Nvidia’s lawyers think of this? There are some things that best not mentioned in a blog post, and this is one of them.



I imagine you can do this without any reverse engineering of Nvidia's drivers, but §2.3 of the NVIDIA Driver License Agreement makes it hard (not impossible).


Yeah I think we'll be fine.
