Adjunct component to provide full virtualization using paravirtualized hypervisors

摘要

A system configuration is provided with a paravirtualizing hypervisor that supports different types of guests, including those that use a single level of translation and those that use a nested level of translation. When an address translation fault occurs during a nested level of translation, an indication of the fault is received by an adjunct component. The adjunct component addresses the address translation fault, at least in part, on behalf of the guest.
