SM Acceleration Hardware Passthrough

Based on Kunpeng processors, the SM acceleration hardware extends Kunpeng Accelerator Engine (KAE) capabilities to the Realm side and adopts the openEuler User space Accelerator Development Kit (UADK), delivering SM performance enhancements and algorithm offloading capabilities within guest cVMs. The SM acceleration device on the 950 server is a PCIe-like device. It leverages the PF/SR-IOV passthrough technology to implement the passthrough of the SM acceleration device's PF/VF to the Realm cVMs. Figure 1 shows the architecture of the SM acceleration hardware passthrough.
