While the lists are used mainly for development, user queries are welcome. No need to subscribe for a one-off question, just send an email. You may also want to check the various qemu resources on the web, as kvm shares the qemu user interface and networking.

Please observe the usual mailing list etiquette: don't top-post, and trim excess quotations from the mail you are replying to.

Don't post to individual kvm developers directly.

== Kernel Based Virtual Machine ==

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.

The kernel component of KVM is included in mainline Linux, as of 2.6.20.

KVM is open source software.
