[Qeustion] Hypervisor for Embedded System

[이상배]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 579 bytes --]

Hi Everyone. 

I am looking for Virtualization Technology which can be useful for Embedded System

Especially, support ARM/PPC/MIPS architecture..

 

Is there anybody who tries to apply Xen to ARM/PPC/MIPS?

Or Is there any other solution which is useful ?

 

I found  rHype from IBM website.

But it is lack of enough information and it is for the Cell architecture.

 

If there is anybody who tries to make some hypervisor for Embedded System,

Let me know you.. and let’s talk about Embedded Hypervisor.

 

Thanks & regards,…

SangBae.Lee

IBM are porting to the PPC970, which should help you some.  They're mostly 
aiming at the server market, so you'd need ta do some more work to get this 
running on an embedded PPC.

Depending on what you want to do there might be other solutions.  e.g. Adeos 
for multiplexing realtime OS components alongside Linux, Vservers for 
creating virtual machines within one Linux kernel.

That functionality is being pull into Xen anyhow...

I heard some vagues rumblings about an ARM port but haven't seen any code.  
Xen *could* be ported for any of these systems but there hasn't (yet) been 
sufficient interest from embedded developers wanting to make a port.

Cheers,

The VT-x style extensions to the ARM ISA might spur interest in a port.

!?

Really, I hadn't heard about those...  Where are they coming from (i.e. from 
Intel or ARM themselves).  Do you have any linkies?

You know - googling hasn't turned anything up, but I'm certain that that was 
mentioned somewhere (OLS?). Hmm...
