Description

Adds Vulkan support for Virtio-GPU through the Venus driver path, helping virtual machines use accelerated Vulkan graphics provided by the host. It is useful in guest systems where the virtualization stack exposes compatible Virtio graphics.

This is a virtualized graphics driver component, not a desktop app. It matters only inside supported VM environments, and driver changes can affect graphics compatibility, performance, and stability in the guest system.
