Abstract

An information handling system includes a service module that may detect an action performed on a passthrough device, invoke an application programming interface on a hypervisor, receive a response to the action on the passthrough device from the hypervisor, and push management information to a management controller. The hypervisor may detect the passthrough device, proxy an operating system call associated with the action to a guest operating system of the virtual machine over the application programming interface, and transmit the response received from the guest operating system to the service module. The guest operating system may echo the operating system call on a virtual machine, and proxy the response to the operating system call to the hypervisor.
