Running Windows 10/11 Guest with GPU Passthrough using laptop running Fedora

Abstract

This is a full guide for people who wanted to set up Windows 10/11 VM with QEMU/KVM hypervisor enhancements for a laptop that is configured with hybrid graphics card like Intel/AMD + NVIDIA. This process will take about 1 to 2 hours, depending on your system's performance and your patience =)

There is another comprehensive guide you can follow here (shoutout to asus-linux team who made supergfxctl which is a very important tool for this guide). It is more up-to-date than mine. I would probably incorporate those information into my guide, but you are welcome to use this one as a reference!

Before we proceed:

This guide is exclusively for Fedora users because this distro is quite different to set up than other distro such as Arch. I would say Arch is easier to setup than Fedora, but sometimes you like to use Fedora than Arc

Explicitly kill all k3s containers at system shutdown

Put the file in /etc/systemd/system/shutdown-k3s.service and then enable the service using

systemctl enable shutdown-k3s.service

Also note that this service name shutdown-k3s must not start with k3s-, otherwise the k3s-killall.sh script would also try to stop this service and cause problems.

Install a standard k3s configuration

Run the command below to install a standard k3s configuration into the /etc/rancher/k3s directory.
This will set the kubeconfig permissions bits and setup to overwrite the install users ~/.kube/config file with the k3s kubeconfig
The user executing the script must have sudo privileges

Usage

Install the config file
