Hello,
I'm trying to find out if there are any documentation about what APIs
are available for VBox plugin, memory management APIs in particular.
Is there any place where such docs can be found?
There is the SDK documentation which is included in the SDK zip file
available here: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
Secondly, I'm wondering what VMMR0, VMMR3, VMMRC (ring 0, etc.. ?)
mean. Is there any doc that help me understand this?
These are VirtualBox internals for which one can generate doxygen output
but I don't think if we publish these. However, since it's all open
source, generating it from OSE tarball shouldn't be too difficult.
VMM stands for Virtual Machine Monitor, and R0, R3, RC, RZ are various
contexts in which the code executes. However, do remember that sometimes
it can be a bit confusing if you go purely by the doxygen comments and
not look into what the code actually does, as there might be the odd
obsolete comment or more likely, for historical reasons why something
continues to be named the way it is.
Regards,
Ram.
Thank you very much!
