Introduction to Virtualization: KVM + QEMU + libvirt Stack

Introduction to Virtualization: KVM + QEMU + libvirt Stack

1. KVM + QEMU + libvirt Stack KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a Linux kernel module that allows user-space programs to access hardware virtualization features of various processors. It enables the kernel to function as a hypervisor. KVM itself does not simulate hardware but delegates these tasks to higher-level client applications like QEMU. QEMU (Quick … Read more
