menuconfig VIRTUALIZATION
bool "Virtualization"
depends on X86
default y
---help---
Say Y here to get to see options for using your Linux host to run other
operating systems inside virtual machines (guests).
This option alone does not add any kernel code.
If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled.
if VIRTUALIZATION
config KVM
tristate "Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) support"
depends on X86 && EXPERIMENTAL
select ANON_INODES
---help---
Support hosting fully virtualized guest machines using hardware
virtualization extensions. You will need a fairly recent
processor equipped with virtualization extensions. You will also
need to select one or more of the processor modules below.
This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through
a character device node named /dev/kvm.
To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module
will be called kvm.
If unsure, say N.
config KVM_INTEL
tristate "KVM for Intel processors support"

extensions.
config KVM_AMD
