Passthrough definition was replied few times.
One of them is here, PH0PR12MB5481EA6A4D0C64C5AF6D3A57DCD4A@PH0PR12MB5481.namprd12.prod.outlook.com/">https://lore.kernel.org/virtio-comment/PH0PR12MB5481EA6A4D0C64C5AF6D3A57DCD4A@PH0PR12MB5481.namprd12.prod.outlook.com/
I donât know what you mean by 'explain'. What do you want to be explained?
What is trapped is listed in PH0PR12MB5481EA6A4D0C64C5AF6D3A57DCD4A@PH0PR12MB5481.namprd12.prod.outlook.com/">https://lore.kernel.org/virtio-comment/PH0PR12MB5481EA6A4D0C64C5AF6D3A57DCD4A@PH0PR12MB5481.namprd12.prod.outlook.com/
What is not trapped is also listed in PH0PR12MB5481EA6A4D0C64C5AF6D3A57DCD4A@PH0PR12MB5481.namprd12.prod.outlook.com/">https://lore.kernel.org/virtio-comment/PH0PR12MB5481EA6A4D0C64C5AF6D3A57DCD4A@PH0PR12MB5481.namprd12.prod.outlook.com/
So what more do you want to explain in there?

What to explain in #2. :)
Things can expand when such hypervisor is born.
