• kitd 3y ago
  Nice work! I'd be more impressed by "Hypervisor in Scratch" though ;)

    Clicked to see if anyone had made this joke yet . . . oh, well.

  Is there a similar tutorial/book/course that one can follow on Linux?
  • Infernal 3y ago
    Maybe a joke but just in case, https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/

      Huh? That's to install Linux, not implement a hypervisor.
      • Infernal 3y ago
        Ohhh. I thought the parent said “for Linux” but I see now it was “on Linux”.

    The author claims that the concepts are platform-independent and that they give examples for Linux when needed. I don't know enough about the topic to know if that's sufficient. https://rayanfam.com/topics/hypervisor-from-scratch-part-1/#hypervisors-and-platforms https://rayanfam.com/topics/hypervisor-from-scratch-part-1/#...

  Nice! I wonder how well it will work with IncludeOS [0]? [0]: https://github.com/includeos/IncludeOS https://github.com/includeos/IncludeOS

    As a host or VM? It would not work as a host as TA uses Windows’ driver kit api. It’s written all for windows.

  Interesting. I remember playing with VT-x using Intel's HAXM framework [0] that installs its own Windows driver with a much nicer user-facing API, basically does what the chapters 2, 3 and 4 of the tutorial end up implementing, so you can spin up an empty, ready to go VM already in the 64-bit mode quite easily.
