33、 The hypervisor domain abstracts the hardware resources from the compute domain. The hypervisor domain overlaps with the network domain in that it can include virtual switch (vSwitch) and virtual router (vRouter) software elements and abstract network-related hardware resources provided by the compu

34、te domain such as network interface controllers (NIC) and embedded switches (eSwitch). There is a direct reference point to the Virtualisation Infrastructure Manager (VIM) from the hypervisor domain. Figure 4-1: Logical placement of the hypervisor domain The hypervisor domain itself is a software en

35、vironment which abstracts hardware and implements services, such as starting a Virtual Machine (VM), terminating a VM, acting on policies, scaling, live migration, and high availability. Figure 4-2 provides a more detailed view of the hypervisor domain and its reference points to the other elements

36、of the architectural framework. The following reference points are identified: a) The Nf-Vi/H reference point provides the interfaces to the VIM. This is where the requests for hypervisor services occur. Only the VIM shall interact with the hypervisor through these interfaces. Hypervisors shall not

37、implement services autonomously unless within the context of the VIM applied policy. b) The Vi-Ha/Csr reference point provides the interfaces that the hypervisor pulls hardware information from and uses to create virtual hardware components which the VM utilizes. c) The Vn-Nf/VM reference point repr

38、esents the execution environment provided by the NFVI to a VNF. A VNF is created essentially via one or more VMs. A VM is in essence software running a function, algorithm, application without being aware of the type, model or number of actual physical units underneath the function, algorithm and/or

39、 application. The purpose of the other reference points identified in figure 4-2 are described in table 1 of ETSI GS NFV-INF 004 i.1. ETSI ETSI GS NFV-EVE 001 V3.1.1 (2017-07)8 Figure 4-2: Hypervisor domain reference points The general architecture of the hypervisor domain is shown in figure 4-3. Fi

40、gure 4-3 also illustrates how VMs interact with CPU cores, NICs and vSwitches. It highlights that high performance VMs can be given: exclusive access to specific CPU cores; exclusive access to allocated memory regions; direct access the physical NICs using direct memory mapped polled drivers and use

41、r mode instructions requiring no context switching; direct memory mapped polled drivers for interVM communications using user mode instructions requiring no context switching.

42、in 5.1 Introduction Some of the requirements on the hypervisor domain are implicitly placing requirements on the underlying hardware. If the hardware does not fulfil such requirements, then the corresponding hypervisor requirements cannot be fulfilled. 5.2 General Requirements Table 5.2-1 specifies

43、general requirements applicable to the hypervisor domain.
