Abstract
An apparatus includes a primary hypervisor that is executable on a first set of processors and a secondary hypervisor that is executable on a second set of processors. The primary hypervisor may define settings of a resource and the secondary hypervisor may use the resource based on the settings defined by the primary hypervisor. For example, the primary hypervisor may program memory address translation mappings for the secondary hypervisor. The primary hypervisor and the secondary hypervisor may include their own schedulers.
