   9           Say Y here to get to see options for using your Linux host to run other
  10           operating systems inside virtual machines (guests).
  11           This option alone does not add any kernel code.

  13           If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled.

  22           Support hosting fully virtualized guest machines using hardware
  23           virtualization extensions.  You will need a fairly recent
  24           processor equipped with virtualization extensions. You will also
  25           need to select one or more of the processor modules below.
  26
  27           This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through
  28           a character device node named /dev/kvm.
  29
  30           To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module
  31           will be called kvm.
  32
  33           If unsure, say N.
