# crosvm - The Chrome OS Virtual Machine Monitor
|
||
|
||
crosvm is a virtual machine monitor (VMM) based on Linux’s 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 doesn’t
|
||
emulate architectures or real hardware, instead concentrating on paravirtualized devices, such as
|
||
the virtio standard.
|
||
|
||
crosvm is currently used to run Linux/Android guests on Chrome OS devices.
