Driver support for synthetic devices: The Linux integration components include support for both the synthetic network controller and synthetic storage controller that have been developed specifically for Hyper-V. These components take advantage of the new high-speed bus, VMBus, which was developed for Hyper-V.

Fastpath Boot Support: Boot devices now take advantage of the storage VSC to provide enhanced performance.
