Abstract

There is a need for providing the Xeon CPU with a two-level VM that is independent of VMM types and prevents the throughput from degrading when the OS operates the privilege register. A machine is provided with a processor and memory. The machine includes a first virtual machine manager for managing a virtual machine, a second virtual machine for managing an operating system, first management information, and second management information. The processor is provided with a register and a shadowing function. The machine uses a virtualization method. The first virtual machine manager detects a call from the second virtual machine manager. The first virtual machine manager enables the shadowing function when it is determined that an instruction for enabling the shadowing function caused the call.
