# On open-source virtualization
*In this section, the focus is on KVM virtualization, and its associated tools, including QEMU, the Linux kernel, libvirt, etc., mostly in the context of Phyllome OS.*
## Hardware

* [Architectures](/virt/architectures)
* [Chipsets](/virt/chipset)
* [Firmware](/virt/firmware)
* [CPU](/virt/cpu)
* [Memory](/virt/memory)
* [Storage](/virt/storage)
* [Network](/virt/network)
* [Display](/virt/display)
## Software
### The host
* [Linux Kernel modules](/virt/kernel-modules) related to virtualization.
* [Virtualization-related paths](/virt/linux-paths) on Phyllome OS
* [XML](/virt/xml) commented
### Guests
> Support for guest systems differs widely. In general, free and open-source operating systems such as Linux distributions are better supported than proprietary operating systems.
{.is-warning}
*This idea of this section is to provide a reference for guest operating systems used in virtual machines*
