Re: No documentation on the "Paravirtualization Interface"op
VirtualBox added some host-side features of KVM and Hyper V (for Linux guests and Windows guests, respectively). Note this only covers clocks/timers, for better precision time in virtual machines.
This is not full-scale PV. (no VirtIO-block device hard disk for example), but nice thing.

In general, we are aware that the documentation is far from being complete. Nevertheless it makes sense to list missing items. Perhaps reuse this topic for enumerating features which lack of documentation.
