> There is only one kind of "hardware" in the universe: the supported hypervisor. No need for drivers for anything else. An explicit goal of rumprun is to support real hardware. Defining the cloud as the only supported platform makes sense if you have to write or port hardware device drivers. For rumprun those drivers come for free as rump kernel components, so if you want to link them in (optional) and run on real hardware, it's possible. Having that possibility makes sense too: your cloud platform and IoT (+) platform can be the same thing, it's just the orchestration layer that differs. +) given a large enough "T"
