KVM is managed via the libvirt API and tools. Using the KVM kernel module allows it to approach native speeds. QEMU is a user-space emulator that can emulate a variety of guest processors on host processors with decent performance. KVM uses QEMU for I/O hardware emulation. An ARM port was merged during the 3.9 kernel merge window. KVM originally supported x86 processors and has been ported to S/390, PowerPC, and IA-64. KVM has also been ported to FreeBSD and illumos in the form of loadable kernel modules. KVM requires a processor with hardware virtualization extension. It was merged into the Linux kernel mainline in kernel version 2.6.20, which was released on February 5, 2007.
