Hi all,

I have some problems regarding the memory management of guest os. As I have understood when linux is running in normal machine it allocates space for kernel from starting address of memory and that allocated memory area is not divided into page frames.

So when running a linux VM, does the memory used for guest kernel is organized without page frames?

Thanks,

Harshan
