Gunyah Hypervisor Integration with QEMU - Development and Features

Learn about a high-performance Type-1 hypervisor called Gunyah in this technical conference talk that explores its integration with Linux and QEMU. Discover how this scalable hypervisor is specifically designed for battery-powered, real-time, and safety-critical systems on ARM64 architecture. Explore the development of its Linux driver, which incorporates active feedback from kernel maintainers and the community, and understand how it enables applications like QEMU to manage virtual machines. Get insights into the upcoming upstream merger of the Linux driver and examine the concurrent development of QEMU support for Gunyah. Delve into the hypervisor's core features, the proposed Linux driver capabilities, and the QEMU modifications required to support both confidential and non-confidential (unprotected) guest systems.
