49 Virtual Machine Extensions are provided in many x86 CPUs. These
50 provide various facilities for allowing a host OS to provide an
51 environment where potentially several guest OSes have only
52 limited access to the underlying hardware. This is achieved
53 without resorting to software trapping and/or instruction set
54 emulation (which would be very slow).
56 Intel's implementation of this is called VT-x. This option enables
57 VT-x this so that the OS that is booted by U-Boot can make use of
58 these facilities. If this option is not enabled, then the host OS
59 will be unable to support virtualisation, or it will run very
