# VFIO-enabler (name pending)
A project to simplify setting up GPU passthrough for [QuickEMU](https://github.com/quickemu-project/quickemu) and libvirt
Currently this project does NO MODIFICATIONS to your system, all it does is generate the files needed for testing inside `./config/`<br>
Currently this project does **NO MODIFICATIONS** to your system, all it does is generate the files needed for testing inside `./config/`
In a future version it will ask if you want changes applied to your system, however I am not enabling that until I have confirmation that this generates a working configuration for other systems than my own.
You can use it by simply running
```bash
git clone https://github.com/HikariKnight/VFIO-enabler.git
cd VFIO-enabler

I know my bash skills are not great, so help is always welcome! And help is wanted here.<br>
If you know bash well, you will be able to help! Just make a pull request with your changes!<br>
Just remember to add comments to document the work and explain it for people who are less familiar with the bash syntax or anything else you use. 😄<br>

Also if you know english, you can just help proof reading. English is not my native language, plus I have dyslexia so I often make spelling mistakes.<br>

### Why bash?
I wanted the dependencies to be minimal without the need for compilation and not have a potential breaking change in the future (like with the transition from python2 to python3).
I know enough bash to make things work, but I am in no way a professional in writing bash scripts as I usually write python and golang.
