48 Support hosting fully virtualized guest machines using hardware
49 virtualization extensions. You will need a fairly recent
50 processor equipped with virtualization extensions. You will also
51 need to select one or more of the processor modules below.
52
53 This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through
54 a character device node named /dev/kvm.
55
56 To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module
57 will be called kvm.

59 If unsure, say N.
