Subject: [PATCH v2 02/18] Kconfig: Introduce CONFIG_XEN
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2020 14:02:08 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200720110224.28851-3-vicooodin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200720110224.28851-1-vicooodin@gmail.com>

From: Peng Fan <peng.fan@nxp.com>

Introduce CONFIG_XEN to make U-Boot could be used as bootloader
for a virtual machine.

Without bootloader, we could successfully boot up android on XEN, but
we need need bootloader to support A/B, dm verify and etc.

+
+	  Xen is a virtual machine monitor (VMM) or a type-1 hypervisor with support
+	  for para-virtualization. Xen can organize the safe execution of several
+	  virtual machines on the same physical system with performance close to
+	  native. It is used as the basis for a number of different commercial and
+	  open source applications, such as: server virtualization, Infrastructure
+	  as a Service (IaaS), desktop virtualization, security applications,
+	  embedded and hardware appliances.
+	  Xen has a special VM called Domain-0 that runs the Dom0 kernel and allows
+	  Xen to use the device drivers for the Domain-0 kernel by default.
