I'm not really geared to development (yet), rather I would like to study its architecture from a security point of view. I've searched anywhere and all I could find was some basic/marketing stuff, or simple white papers explaining HW virtualization. The wiki currently has some details, but none of them are satisfying enough for my needs :-) If you're familiar with Xen, I'm looking for the KVM equivalent versions of the following docs: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/research/srg/netos/papers/2003-xensosp.pdf http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenArchitecture?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=Xen+Architecture_Q1+2008.pdf Does anything like that exist, or should I go the long way studying QEMU and KVM sources?
