KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution
|
|
for Linux on x86 hardware containing virtualization extensions (Intel VT
|
|
or AMD-V). It consists of a loadable kernel module, kvm.ko, that provides
|
|
the core virtualization infrastructure and a processor specific module,
|
|
kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. KVM also requires a modified QEMU although
|
|
work is underway to get the required changes upstream.
|
|
|
|
Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual machines running unmodified Linux
|
|
or Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized hardware:
|
|
a network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc.
|
|
|
|
Reload udev rules. # /etc/rc.d/rc.udev reload
|
|
|
|
How use kvm with a non-privileged user:
|
|
|
|
Add kvm group # groupadd kvm
|
|
Add user to kvm group. Re-login.
|
|
|
|
# modprobe kvm-intel or # modprobe kvm-amd
|
