I remember reading about VMX, but that’s Intel’s flag, right? I’m pretty sure AMD uses SVM for virtualization.

I practiced a question like this before, and I think SVM was the answer. It sounds familiar, but I hope I’m not mixing it up with something else.

I feel like HVM is related to virtualization too, but I can't recall if it's specific to AMD or just a general term.

I'm pretty confident the answer is C. AMD CPUs use the SVM (Secure Virtual Machine) flag to indicate hardware virtualization capability.

A) HVM? More like 'Hail Virtual Machines!' Amirite? Anyway, C seems like the winner here.

B) VIRT? I don't know, that just sounds a bit too generic for a CPU flag. I'm leaning towards C.
