A partition is a logical + unit of isolation, supported by the hypervisor, in which operating systems + execute.</p> +<p class="Pp">The Microsoft hypervisor must have at least one parent, or root, + partition, running Windows Server operating system. The virtualization stack + runs in the parent partition and has direct access to the hardware devices. + The root partition then creates the child partitions which host the guest + operating systems.</p> +<p class="Pp">Child partitions do not have direct access to other hardware + resources and are presented a virtual view of the resources, as virtual + devices (VDevs). Requests to the virtual devices are redirected either via + the VMBus or the hypervisor to the devices in the parent partition, which + handles the requests.</p> +<p class="Pp">The VMBus is a logical inter-partition communication channel. The + parent partition hosts Virtualization Service Providers (VSPs) which + communicate over the VMBus to handle device access requests from child + partitions. Child partitions host Virtualization Service Consumers (VSCs) + which redirect device requests to VSPs in the parent partition via the + VMBus. The Hyper-V VMBus driver defines and implements the interface that + facilitate high performance bi-directional communication between the VSCs + and VSPs. All VSCs utilize the VMBus driver.</p> +</section> +<section class="Sh"> +<h1 class="Sh" id="SEE_ALSO"><a class="permalink" href="#SEE_ALSO">SEE + ALSO</a></h1> +<p class="Pp"><a class="Xr">hv_netvsc(4)</a>, <a class="Xr">hv_storvsc(4)</a>, + <a class="Xr">hv_utils(4)</a></p> +</section> +<section class="Sh"> +<h1 class="Sh" id="HISTORY"><a class="permalink" href="#HISTORY">HISTORY</a></h1> +<p class="Pp">Support for <code class="Nm">hv_vmbus</code> first appeared in + <span class="Ux">FreeBSD 10.0</span>.
