10 operating systems inside virtual machines (guests).
11 This option alone does not add any kernel code.

23 Support hosting fully virtualized guest machines using hardware
24 virtualization extensions. You will need a fairly recent
25 processor equipped with virtualization extensions. You will also
26 need to select one or more of the processor modules below.

28 This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through
29 a character device node named /dev/kvm.

31 To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module
32 will be called kvm.

34 If unsure, say N.
