The vast majority of Intel server chips of the Xeon E3, Xeon E5, and Xeon E7 product lines support VT-d. The first—and least powerful—Xeon to support VT-d was the E5502 launched Q1'09 with two cores at 1.86 GHz on a 45 nm process. [2]
With some motherboards, users must enable Intel's VT-x feature in the BIOS setup before applications can make use of it. [23] Intel started to include Extended Page Tables (EPT), [24] a technology for page-table virtualization, [25] since the Nehalem architecture, [26] [27] released in 2008.
SeaBIOS also runs inside an emulator; it is the default BIOS for the QEMU and KVM virtualization environments, and can be used with the Bochs emulator. It is also included in some Chromebooks , although it is not used by ChromeOS .
Virtualization is the creation of a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, such as an operating system, a server, a storage device or network resources And right now it's the fastest ...
In virtualization, guest operating systems can use hardware that is not specifically made for virtualization. Higher performance hardware such as graphics cards use DMA to access memory directly; in a virtual environment all memory addresses are re-mapped by the virtual machine software, which causes DMA devices to fail.
A single physical PCI Express bus can be shared in a virtual environment using the SR-IOV specification. [1] [2] The SR-IOV offers different virtual functions to different virtual components (e.g. network adapter) on a physical server machine.
Intel AMT is the set of management and security features built into vPro PCs that makes it easier for a sys-admin to monitor, maintain, secure, and service PCs. [11] Intel AMT (the management technology) is sometimes mistaken for being the same as Intel vPro (the PC "platform"), because AMT is one of the most visible technologies of an Intel vPro-based PC.
A 68451 MMU, which could be used with the Motorola 68010. A memory management unit (MMU), sometimes called paged memory management unit (PMMU), [1] is a computer hardware unit that examines all memory references on the memory bus, translating these requests, known as virtual memory addresses, into physical addresses in main memory.
