I saw in the [2020-09-01 Official Launch Event for the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 30 Series](https://youtu.be/E98hC9e__Xs?t=1436) that the RTX IO in the [Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 Series](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeForce_30_series) allows the GPU to directly access the storage (SSD) with only a slight CPU overhead when using Microsoft DirectStorage (see screenshot below). How can one use RTX IO on Linux?
