The Linux kernel 2.6.20 release (February 2007) was the first to include KVM. A wide variety of guest operating-systems work with KVM, including many flavours of Linux, BSD, Solaris, Windows, Haiku, ReactOS and AROS Research Operating System and a modified version of Qemu can use KVM to run Mac OS X. Paravirtualization support is also available for Linux and Windows guests using the VirtIO framework; this includes a paravirtual Ethernet card, a disk I/O controller, a balloon device for adjusting guest memory-usage, and VGA graphics interface using SPICE or VMware drivers. |
