I have been reading dmesg and I found the line " Booting paravirtualized kernel on bare hardware " but I am not using Ubuntu in virtualization I am using it on my laptop DELL N5110 the only OS I have on this machine.

Why is it "Booting paravirtualized kernel on bare hardware" and what does it mean by that ?

You have a kernel that supports running on a "virtual machine", but you are running on a real machine (bare hardware). It's harmless.
