Triton brings DirectX 11 support to QEMU Windows guests
The project introduces Triton, a new Windows graphics driver that works with Neptune to provide full DirectX 11 support inside QEMU virtual machines. Instead of replacing Direct3D DLLs per application, the approach implements the Windows DirectX driver interface, aiming for broader compatibility and better desktop performance in Windows guests. On the kernel side, it builds on existing work for a Venus-based KMD to connect the virtual GPU stack to QEMU.
