Introduction
this virtualization hardware provides a new architecture upon which the operating
system can run directly, it removes the need for binary translation. Thus, it helps
eliminate associated performance overhead and vastly simplifies the design of the
VMM, in turn allowing VMMs to be written to common standards and to be more
robust. See the Intel
®
Virtualization Technology Specification for the IA-32 Intel
®
Architecture for more details.
