Lguest
Lguest
Lguest allows you to run multiple copies of the same 32-bit kernel, simply modprobe lg, then run Documentation/lguest/lguest to create a new guest. I suggest you try this yourself, lguest is incredibly easy to get up and running. It's also quite useful: I can test-boot kernels with it in less than a second, or about 10x faster than basic qemu, and 100x faster than a real boot. And as it uses a pty as console, you can do things like pipe it through grep. lguest is all one big kernel patch, including the launcher. It's in 2.6.23-git13 and above. Lguest aims to isolate the guest so it cannot reach outside to the host (except for virtual devices supplied by the host of course), even if the guest is malicious. However, a malicious guest kernel can currently pin host memory (up to the amount of memory allowed to the guest). Most images are set up to create a console virtual consoles (/dev/tty0 etc), but the lguest console is /dev/hvc0. -
13
Apple Hypervisor
Apple
Build virtualization solutions on top of a lightweight hypervisor, without third-party kernel extensions. Hypervisor provides C APIs so you can interact with virtualization technologies in user space, without writing kernel extensions (KEXTs). As a result, the apps you create using this framework are suitable for distribution on the Mac App Store. Use this framework to create and control hardware-facilitated virtual machines and virtual processors (VMs and vCPUs) from your entitled, sandboxed, user-space process. Hypervisor abstracts virtual machines as processes, and virtual processors as threads. The Hypervisor framework requires hardware support to virtualize hardware resources. On Apple silicon, that includes the Virtualization Extensions. On Intel-based Mac computers, the framework supports machines with an Intel VT-x feature set that includes Extended Page Tables (EPT) and Unrestricted Mode. -

Microsoft Hyper-V
Microsoft
Hyper-V is Microsoft's hardware virtualization product. It lets you create and run a software version of a computer, called a virtual machine. Each virtual machine acts like a complete computer, running an operating system and programs. When you need computing resources, virtual machines give you more flexibility, help save time and money, and are a more efficient way to use hardware than just running one operating system on physical hardware. Each supported guest operating system has a customized set of services and drivers, called integration services, that make it easier to use the operating system in a Hyper-V virtual machine. Hyper-V includes Virtual Machine Connection, a remote connection tool for use with both Windows and Linux. Unlike Remote Desktop, this tool gives you console access, so you can see what's happening in the guest even when the operating system isn't booted yet. -

Ensure the security of your workloads, simplify regulatory compliance, and guarantee data sovereignty with IBM Cloud Secure Virtualization. A trusted cloud infrastructure must be able to answer these questions for corporate oversight, security, and compliance. A customer wants to create an environment where administration, workload execution, and data access are constrained to a particular geo-location with full audit capabilities. During deployment, identify the firmware configurations you will allow and the hypervisor configurations you have approved. Accurately identify each physical host and its physical location, creating a snapshot or fingerprint of each trusted host's launch configuration. This is stored in an allowlist. If the measurements of a host's BIOS and hypervisor match the measurements stored in the allowlist, the boot environment is attested. The host launches into a state that is considered trusted.
