Description
This VM is for running macOS via dedicated hardware so I have something faster than my laptop.

The Eluktronics NVMe SSD is using PCI passthrough (hostpci2: in the LXC config) so macOS can run without any IO overhead. Because of a bug in the NVMe controller (Silicon Motion 2262) doesn't play well when it is passed through I added a fix by appending -set device.hostpci2.x-msix-relocation=bar2 to the args: parameter in the LXC config.
