VFIO doesn’t work on emulated architectures. Maybe on Talos it could kinda sorta start, but then again, you’d have to build a contraption to physically fit old PCI into PCIe.
You could also start a reverse engineering effort for one of those old cards and emulate it properly in QEMU. Once done, it would be much faster than the original. It could be ready by the time my grandkids entered adulthood.
