Self-Virtualized i/o: High Performance, Scalable i/o Virtualization in Multi-Core Systems: Virtualizing I/O subsystems and peripheral devices is an integral part of system virtualization. This paper advocates the notion of self-virtualized I/O (SV-IO). Specifically, it proposes a hypervisor-level abstraction that permits guest virtual machines to efficiently exploit the multi-core nature of future machines when interacting with virtualized I/O. The concrete instance...; Tags: I/O, High-performance, Multi-core; White papers 2007-10-22
