Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM)

KVM is a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86 hardware containing

virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V). KVM is Open Source software

 

Carbon Mountain uses KVM extensions to the Linux kernel and the QEMU project as a core to the KaOS hypervisor platform. The KVM project enables KaOS to provide full virtualization on hardware containing virtualization extensions. KVM is combined with the virtio drivers and libvirt framework to provide a complete virtualization platform in KaOS.  

KVM is a core component in KaOS.
