For what it's worth, we at _Joyent_ were seriously investing in bhyve as our next generation of hypervisor for quite a while. We had been diverging from upstream KVM, and most especially upstream QEMU, for a long time, and bhyve was a better fit for us for a variety of reasons. We adopted a port that had begun at Pluribus, another company that was doing things with OpenSolaris and eventually illumos, and Bryan lead us through that period as well.
- ComputerGuru 2y agoAre you/will you be upstreaming fixes and/or improvements to Bhyve?
- jclulow 2y agoYes, my personal goal is to ensure that basically everything we do in the Oxide "stlouis" branch of illumos eventually goes upstream to illumos-gate where it filters down to everyone else!
- pmooney 2y agoImprovements and fixes to illumos bhyve are almost entirely done in upstream illumos-gate, rather than the Oxide downstream. Upstreaming those changes into FreeBSD bhyve is a more complicated situation, given that illumos has diverged from upstream over the years due to differing opinions about certain interfaces.
