Nested virtualization for ARM architecture

Question

Hi! We are working on a project were we need the proccessor architecture to be ARM and we want to do nested virtualization. We read the documentation and for the prerrequisites only Intel and AMD are mention. There is no statement that says neither yes or no for ARM architectures, we surmise that the answer might be no, there is no support, but we wanted to double-check.

Answer 1

Currently none of the VMs which use ARM CPUs support nested virtualization. You can find this information on the series page for the VM.

Here are links to the current VMs that use the ARM CPU:
