Subject: Scheduling of VCPUs and allocation of Guest Physical Memory
Date: Thu, 05 Jun 2008 12:59:07 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <484795C3.8030603@cse.iitb.ac.in> (raw)

Hi all,

I have two questions regarding KVM:

i) Is a VCPU scheduled like a normal Linux process or there is some 
mechanism by which performance guarantees can be provided to the VCPUs ?

ii) Who does the allocation of host physical memory to the guest, is it 
KVM module or the associated QEmu process ?

Also, I would be glad if you can provide me pointers to some 
documentation/paper/literature which discusses KVM in greater detail 
than what the paper "kvm: The Linux Virtual Machine Monitor" presents.

Thanks,
Sukanto
