General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_KVM has multiple definitions:

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) support (EXPERIMENTAL) found in arch/riscv/kvm/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_KVM:

Help text

Support hosting virtualized guest machines.

If unsure, say N.

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) support found in arch/x86/kvm/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_KVM:

Help text

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.

Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) support found in arch/s390/kvm/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_KVM:

Help text

Support hosting paravirtualized guest machines using the SIE virtualization capability on the mainframe. This should work on any 64bit machine.

This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through a character device node named /dev/kvm.
