Hello,

> On hosts other than Windows and macOS VirtualBox defaults to an exclusive use of VT-x/SVM for performance reasons. That mode can be changed
> to do the initialization every time VirtualBox is scheduled on a particular CPU which has higher overhead but allows sharing the hardware virtualization capabilities
> with other hypervisors. The setting can be changed with VBoxManage. Look at the manual under [1] and search for „hwvirtexclusive“.

Sorry for the off-topic comment, but this might be interesting to other
VirtualBox users: a happy side effect of turning "hwvirtexclusive" off is that
it seems to solve the crash that occurs when the host is resuming from S3
sleep while having running VirtualBox VMs.
