The document discusses Linux KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) and how it enables full virtualization on x86 hardware. KVM uses Intel VT-x and AMD-V virtualization extensions to allow a Linux kernel to function as a hypervisor. Guest virtual machines see a bare metal interface while the host kernel manages scheduling and resource allocation. Qemu is used as a processor emulator to add missing guest architectures.
