[pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server v1 1/2] virtio-vga-gl: add Vulkan (venus) support

[Markus Frank <m.frank@proxmox.com>]

The venus protocol facilitates the translation of Vulkan API calls via
the virglrenderer. To use it, the virgl-server package must be installed
on the host.

The Vulkan option is represented by an enum with values such as
'venus-512' and 'venus-1024'. This is to allow for the potential
addition of another Vulkan implementation in the future. The number
indicates the memory window in MiB for Venus.
