KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for 
Linux on x86 hardware containing virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V).
It consists of a loadable kernel module, kvm.ko, that provides the core 
virtualization infrastructure and a processor specific module, kvm-intel.ko or 
kvm-amd.ko. KVM also requires a modified QEMU although work is underway to get 
the required changes upstream.

Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual machines running unmodified Linux or 
Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized hardware: a 
network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc.

The kernel component of KVM is included in mainline Linux, as of 2.6.20.

KVM is open source software.
