In-Reply-To: Message from Samuel Rydh <samuel@ibrium.se> of "Mon, 25 Jan 1999 16:12:52 +0100." <v03130305b2d231353f9c@[192.168.0.1]>
One of the changes from the original POWER architecture to the
PowerPC architecture was "virtualizing" the instructions so that a
hypervisor-like OS could virtualize the processor and allow hosted
operating systems on a virtual machine.
The hosted operating system thinks that it is running on hardware
but all privileged operations trap to the hypervisor.
