Sample text

However, there are two major drawbacks with this type of solution. The first drawback is the inability to run a heterogeneous operating system mix on a given server because all partitions share a single operating system kernel. The second drawback, also caused by the shared kernel model, is the lack of support for running a mixed 32-bit and 64-bit workload. In addition, any operating system kernel update affects all virtual environments. For these reasons, operating system–level virtualization tends to work best for largely homogeneous workload environments.

The spT is not visible to the guest. Shadow paging can incur significant additional memory and performance overheads with SMp guests. In an SMp guest, the same gpT instance can be used for address translation on more than one processor. In such a case, the hypervisor must either maintain spT instances that can be used at each processor or share the spT between multiple virtual processors. The former results in high memory overheads; the latter could result in high synchronization overheads. It is estimated that, for certain workloads, shadow paging can account for up to 75 percent of overall hypervisor overhead.

Use of the ring compression method is required because of 17 instructions in the x86 that cannot be fully virtualized but that could result in a fault state, crashing the system. So, to preserve the integrity of the system state, the VMM intercepts and translates the guest operating system instructions to host operating system instructions (binary translation process), handing control back to the Windows operating system kernel when hardware resource access is required or a condition occurs that the VMM cannot handle.
