I can't speak for KVM, but this is certainly possible using XenServer.  We've 
run nested virtualisation and nested OpenStack instances (primarily devstack 
instances for testing) many times.
There is a degradation in performance, as you would expect from nested 
virtualisation, but it's definitely functional.

Subject: [Openstack] Openstack IN a Virtual Machine?

Hi All,

I have a question on Openstack that is quite important for my cloud 
architecture:

--> Can I have a complete Openstack instance running ON a VIRTUAL MACHINE?

Or, generalizing: can I have "nested" openstack instances?

...and ....If this is possible...are there any constraints?

NOTES:
->I'm interested to openstack instances WITH all network features available, 
meaning Quantum server with (preferably) openwswitch plugin, so I would be 
interested in VMs with a nested openstack image that do provide or access 
quatum server features...BUT even a flat DHCP network would be better than 
nothing!
->I normally use KVM as Hypervisor


Thanks so much for any help


Best Regards

P.S.: if this is a "newbie" question I apology, but I cannot find a clear 
answer in doc (see for instance 
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/HypervisorSupportMatrix) AND perhaps some 
little words could save a lot of time when trying to realize such a nested 
achitecture
