Help with configuring WFH setup using 2 computers/2 monitors

I work from home and I'm planning on leveling up my setup with a KVM switch and dual monitors to swap between my work laptop and gaming PC. The KVM should handle instances where my laptop is displaying on both monitors or my home PC is displaying on both monitors but where I'm getting hung up is how to split the displays should I want to use both computers at the same time and how to swap my keyboard/mouse back and forth between them. I don't think a KVM switch alone and handle the split displays and swapping peripherals between computers. Anyone know what I need to accomplish this?
