# # KVM configuration # source "virt/kvm/Kconfig" menuconfig VIRTUALIZATION bool "Virtualization" depends on HAVE_KVM || 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 HAVE_KVM # for device assignment: depends on PCI # for TASKSTATS/TASK_DELAY_ACCT: depends on NET select PREEMPT_NOTIFIERS select MMU_NOTIFIER select ANON_INODES select HAVE_KVM_IRQCHIP select HAVE_KVM_EVENTFD select KVM_APIC_ARCHITECTURE select KVM_ASYNC_PF select USER_RETURN_NOTIFIER select KVM_MMIO select TASKSTATS select TASK_DELAY_ACCT select PERF_EVENTS select HAVE_KVM_MSI ---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" depends on KVM # for perf_guest_get_msrs(): depends on CPU_SUP_INTEL ---help--- Provides support for KVM on Intel processors equipped with the VT extensions. To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called kvm-intel. config KVM_AMD tristate "KVM for AMD processors support" depends on KVM ---help--- Provides support for KVM on AMD processors equipped with the AMD-V (SVM) extensions. To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called kvm-amd. config KVM_MMU_AUDIT bool "Audit KVM MMU" depends on KVM && TRACEPOINTS ---help--- This option adds a R/W kVM module parameter 'mmu_audit', which allows audit KVM MMU at runtime. # OK, it's a little counter-intuitive to do this, but it puts it neatly under # the virtualization menu. source drivers/vhost/Kconfig source drivers/lguest/Kconfig endif # VIRTUALIZATION
