crosvm - The Chrome OS Virtual Machine Monitor

crosvm is a virtual machine monitor (VMM) based on Linuxs KVM hypervisor, with a focus on simplicity, security, and speed. crosvm is intended to run Linux guests, originally as a security boundary for running native applications on the Chrome OS platform. Compared to QEMU, crosvm doesnt emulate architectures or real hardware, instead concentrating on paravirtualized devies, such as the virtio standard.

crosvm is currently used to run Linux/Android guests on Chrome OS devices.
