Up to now there has only been Kabylake support with the 0x591D device, which is the graphics PCI ID found by some Kabylake Xeon graphics cores. But now with a small patch, the entire Kabylake platform is now being supported with their validation tests passing.
This change is currently made for the gvt-linux tree but then should end up being mainlined for Linux 4.14 with the Linux 4.13 merge window having passed... Unless this small change ends up getting accepted as a "fix" into 4.13.
Intel GVT allows exposing their graphics hardware to guest KVM/Xen VMs for allowing 3D/compute acceleration from their mainline open-source graphics driver stack. More details on it at 01.org.
