Advanced x86: Virtualization with Intel VT-x
- rpgwaiter 3y agoAm I missing something? Where's the actual course? I just see a description for one.
- chandlerswift 3y agoIt looks like course details are linked in the sidebar to the right: https://opensecuritytraining.info/AdvancedX86-VTX.html https://opensecuritytraining.info/AdvancedX86-VTX.html (perhaps this URL would have made more sense for submission, per "Please submit the original source"?)

- mshockwave 3y agoThe links to PDF and ODP materials should be swapped
- matt3210 3y agoThe graph at the bottom shows a great learning path to lead up to and follow the VT-x virtualization

- MobiusHorizons 3y agoVT-x is not a RISC-V feature, it is a feature of x86 cpus, which is definitely not deprecated. VT-x is (as far as I know) the technology that allows acceptable speed virtualization of virtual machines, which is the backbone of cloud computing. RISC-V H extension is not applicable to intel CPUs even if it provides features that solve similar problems (ie it cannot possibly be the replacement). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_virtualization#Intel-VT-x https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_virtualization#Intel-VT-x
- snvzz 3y agoNoted. Edited "replacement" into "homologue".
- teleforce 3y agoAwesome, thanks for the links. Apparently it's part of the open source courses and learning materials portal on security, x86, ARM, malware, VM, intrusion detection, pcap analysis, crypto, trusted computing, smart card, reverse engineering, forensics, secure coding, software exploits, etc: https://opensecuritytraining.info/Training.html https://opensecuritytraining.info/Training.html
- the_panopticon 3y agoAll of the training at https://opensecuritytraining.info/Training.html https://opensecuritytraining.info/Training.html is valuable. Xeno Kovah who set this up originally also hosts a nice timeline of exploit papers https://darkmentor.com/timeline.html https://darkmentor.com/timeline.html, too.

- userbinator 3y agoUnfortunately no mention of V86 even in the intro/history section, which could be considered the origins of x86 virtualisation technology, and achieved widespread use starting with Windows/386 and all the way through the Win9x lineage. If you've ever used those versions of Windows, you've used a hypervisor.
