The QEMU based packages included with SLES 15 SP2 provide a large variety of
features, from the very latest customer requests to features of questionable
quality or value. The linux kernel includes components which contribute KVM
virtualization features as well. This document was created to assist the user
in deciding which features can be relied upon to build enterprise class
virtualization solutions. KVM based virtualization for x86 (Intel 64/AMD64),
for IBM System z (s390x), for Power8 Systems (ppc64le) and for the ARM64
architecture (AArch64) are offered at the L3 (full support) level. The bulk
of this document deals with L3 supported features and is primarily x86
centric. This document should be considered a companion to the standard
virtualization documentation delivered with the product.
