Enviroment

My test environment is

Guest OS: Archlinux (as of Oct 2023)
Hypervisor: VMware VirtualBox with KVM Para-virtualization enabled
Host OS: Archlinux
NIC(s) : 4 * virtual Intel Pro 1000 MT Server (82545EM)
HugePages Configuration : 1024 * 2MB Pagesize Mounted @ /mnt/hugepages on both host and guest Machines.

This tutorial works according to my exprience, and should also apply to other virtual machines, such as debian/ubuntu and centos, which may need some customization.
