Hello, I had some basic questions regarding KVM, and would appreciate any help:) I have been reading about the KVM architecture, and as I understand it, the guest shows up as a regular process in the host itself.. I had some questions around that.. 1. Are the guest processes implemented as a control group within the overall VM process itself? Is the VM a kernel process or a user process? 2. Is there a way for me to force some specific CPU/s to a guest, and those CPUs to be not used for any work on the host itself? Pinning is just making sure the vCPU runs on the same physical CPU always, I am looking for something more than that.. 3. If the host is compiled as a non pre-emptible kernel, kernel process run to completion until they give up the CPU themselves. In the context of a guest, I am trying to understand what that would mean in the context of KVM and guest VMs. If the VM is a user process, it means nothing, I wasnt sure as per (1). Cheers!
