Subject: [PATCH qemu-server/pve-manager v2 0/2] add virtio-vga-gl OpenGL 4.6 & Vulkan (venus) support
Date: Fri, 26 Jun 2026 15:54:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260626135527.299939-1-m.frank@proxmox.com> (raw)

v2:
The QEMU documentation got updated and now explains that adding blob and
hostmem alone with or without "venus=on" enabled support for OpenGL 4.6.
So I decided to let the user decide which "feature set" to use:
* the default with up to OpenGL 4.3 support
* OpenGL 4.6 (hostmem=<size>G,blob=true)
* Vulkan & OpenGL 4.6 (hostmem=<size>G,blob=true,venus=true)
https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/system/devices/virtio/virtio-gpu.html

There is also a patch on the qemu-devel list which separates Vulkan from
OpenGL.
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2026-03/msg05502.html
So in the future we could add a "vulkan without opengl" or "drm" option.

The hostmem option allocates a host memory region that acts as virtual
VRAM, enabling virglrenderer to map graphics 'blobs' directly to fixed
memory addresses.
