1. A system for supporting efficient virtualization in a lossless interconnection network, comprising:
one or more microprocessors;
a subnet, the subnet comprising a plurality of switches, the plurality of switches providing point to point connectivity between a plurality of host channel adapters, each host channel adapter having a hypervisor, of a plurality of hypervisors, running thereon;
wherein a virtual machine performs a migration from a first hypervisor of the plurality of hypervisors to a second hypervisor of the plurality of hypervisors;
wherein as a result of migration of the virtual machine, a subnet manager updates only one linear forward table at a switch of the plurality of switches within the subnet, the only one linear forwarding table being determined by the subnet manager based upon a determination of a skyline between the first hypervisor and the second hypervisor.
