Abstract
The present disclosure includes, among other things, systems, methods and program products for virtual machine device access. A first asynchronous request from a virtual machine executing on a device is identified, where the first asynchronous request is for accessing one or more of the device's information or services. The first asynchronous request is retrieved from the virtual machine. The first asynchronous request is scheduled to be provided as a second request to a service provider on the device, where the service provider is operable to handle the second request. The second request is provided to the service provider and a first response is received from the service provider to be provided to the virtual machine as a second response. First code is selected in the virtual machine from a plurality of code to receive the second response and providing the second response to the selected code.
