Hi everyone,
KSM is an "out-of-tree" x86-64 ("in-kernel") VT-x hypervisor, it's designed to be hackable.
KSM supports the following *new* processor features:
- Virtualization Exceptions
- VM functions
To keep this short, KSM's purpose is not to run other kernels, but more of
researching (or whatsoever) the running kernel, some ideas would be sandboxing,
debugging perhaps.
P.S.: Sorry about the name, noticed it's a dup of kernel-shared-memory few
months late.

Thanks!
