Abstract
Run-time, event-driven virtual machine introspection of the target guest virtual machine is facilitated as described herein. A component can specify events that are of interest to the component for introspection of a target guest virtual machine of a hypervisor. The hypervisor detects an introspection event generated by a target guest virtual machine and determines whether the introspection event is of interest for handling by a component coupled to the hypervisor. If so, the hypervisor alerts the component about the introspection event and provides information associated with the introspection event to the component. The component thereby receives notification of occurrence of the introspection event from the hypervisor and may obtain information associated with the introspection event.
