Abstract
An offloaded virtualization management component of a virtualization host receives an indication from a hypervisor of a portion of main memory of the host for which memory allocation decisions are not to be performed by the hypervisor. The offloaded virtualization management component assigns a subset of the portion to a particular guest virtual machine and provides an indication of the subset to the hypervisor.
