Hardware Support for Spin Management in Overcommitted Virtual Machines
White Papers Multiprocessor Operating Systems (OSs) pose several unique and conflicting challenges to System Virtual Machines (System VMs). For example, most existing system VMs resort to gang scheduling a guest OS's virtual processors (VCPUs) to avoid OS...
