My question is exactly how the Nvidia support works. Is this using vgpu-unlock (or a reimplementation), or something new? Or something not using GRID at all?

This is what I got from the dev :

vgpu_unlock is one of the tools we used for the demo however there is a much cleaner, simpler method to handle virtual function creation/bindings on Nvidia that we’re hoping we’ll have public support for shortly.

nvidia support should be getting pushed soon, and that point they should move to github soon. We’ll see when that comes, if that comes.

I have not had time to listen through this yet, but this is a workaround for the Nvidia proprietary driver I assume? Not Nouveau?

What I got from an email with the dev is that yes there are proprietary Nvidia blobs in this solution.
