Abstract

Embodiments described herein are generally directed to assigning virtual machine (VM) workloads to groupings/partitions of accelerator resources. In an example, a processing resource of a host system maintains: (i) a resource data structure containing resource utilization information for each of one or more accelerators associated with the host system; and (ii) a group data structure containing information regarding each group of multiple groups of one or more virtual functions (VFs) of the one or more accelerators that has been assigned for use by a respective VM of multiple VMs running on a virtual machine monitor (VMM) of the processing resource. A request to deploy a workload associated with a first VM is received. Responsive to the request, the workload is assigned to a VF of a group of the multiple groups determined to have resource capacity available to satisfy expected resource utilization of the workload.
